Dearborn Moderator United States 97162 Posts	Posted 03/08/2021 09:09 am I'm considering buying this coin from ebay: I could post up the ebay listing if everybody promises to NOT to jump on it and buy it before I decide what to do..

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/08/2021 3:09 pm These are nothing but a polished die. An all the rest of the coins struck with this die will show the same thing. (And can even get worse if it ends up on the polishing table again) They are just a die event. Report this Post to the Staff

With that being said, it appears to fit the description. If you like it, get it. Of course, being a 1972, I am more interested in what the earth looks like on the reverse.

Dearborn Moderator United States 97162 Posts	Posted 03/09/2021 10:56 am Yes, I'm aware of these different types of the '72 Ike I have posted a graphic on this in the 'post an Ike" forum. here is a copy (not nearly as nice as yours, Coop). But I was more concerned about this particular coin in this thread being a 'peg leg' than anything else BUT that being said - a peg leg type 2 1972-p Eisenhower would be Awesome.. Edit: But this coin looks like a type 1 Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.
