My 1951 Bowman Red Menace bubble gum card. Ike was President when I was born. This card is from the time of the Korean War. Where the US helped defend South Korea. I like IKE!   |

I do appreciate all the comments.  I plan to share some more stories, but let us enjoy some Ike eye candy. You all know that is the only reason why you are viewing this topic.  We will begin the PCGS tour. I debated the order I would use, but have settled on just going down the list. Up first, the 1971 Eisenhower dollar. Purchased on ebay last year. It is one of two MS-64 graded Ikes (the lowest). MS-65 and higher with great eye appeal are difficult to find and demand premium funding.  |

Glad to hear it!  For the curious, this is because the CCF gallery images are hosted on a different server that is not running SSL (HTTPS) yet. The "mixed content" is posts via HTTPS from CCF Forum and the images via HTTP from CCF Gallery. Bobby plans on upgrading that server next, so eventually it will be fixed. |

Time for some more Ikes!  This 1971-S 40% Silver Eisenhower dollar was purchased from David Lawrence last year.  |

I like IKE! I meant to comment on this directly earlier. That is a wonderful piece of memorabilia.
