arby96 Pillar of the Community United States 2111 Posts	Posted 10/05/2025 12:40 pm Hey Everyone, Now this coin confuses me a bit. I believe this coin shows the friendly eagle on the reverse of my coin and the moon is correct to the left of the eagles head showing Type 1. per educational photo. The only issue is the moons craters don't have the strong lines. So how can this coin have two of the three attributes? I don't have any other 1971S Proof Ikes to compare them.. I am using photos on the internet. I believe what I will be told is that this coin is not a 1971S Type 1 Reverse. Please let me know what you think. Also keep in mind I did not take the coin out of the holder to take the photos for obvious reasons. Sorry about the blurry photo on the full Reverse, Truly doesn't make a difference, the closeups show what I am conveying. Thanks everyone. "LOVE THE HUNT!"
