What a concept - an RP Ike! Write your congressman and get the ball rolling! BTW - b/c I know nothing of grading Ikes ... what would stop the recently posted Ikes from being PF70s... just politics? How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?

ASLAN TVorlon Pillar of the Community United States 1234 Posts	Posted 01/07/2014 10:24 pm Mine are AU at best but the rest are stunning, especially the one that is as old as I am (1974) I just found an UA '74 half in a roll along with a '74 that looked as bad as I feel, always interesting to see how thing my age have fared better or worse than me.

Darth Morgan Pillar of the Community United States 2815 Posts	Posted 01/16/2014 2:06 pm 1971-S DDO FS-106 -- only 3 more to go! This one graded low because there are actually fingerprints on the coin. But that's OK. I paid book value for it ($125). Having the collection complete is more important to me than having higher grades, at least as far as these FS varieties go. I'm going to be forced into lower grades for the FS-103 and FS-801 too, if they ever come up for sale. Then, if the "nightcrawler" ever gets added to the CPG I'm in real trouble!

ilikeikes Pillar of the Community United States 1205 Posts	Posted 01/16/2014 5:25 pm Nice Darth...a lot of the Ikegroup fella's seem happy with the PCGS conservation...that may be an option to remove your prints, and, get an upgrade to boot, 1 to 2 points, usually....while not inexpensive, they are using it on higher-end IKEs, and it seems to be working..just a thought for any submissions in the future...

Darth Morgan Pillar of the Community United States 2815 Posts	Posted 01/16/2014 6:15 pm Great suggestion! I will keep this in mind for the future. So, PCGS will actually still grade the coin after conservation? No details slab? That's pretty awesome. When NGC conserved one of my Morgans it was given a details grade.

I might wish it as well, but I am glad they did, because my fully filled Eisenhower Dansco is my favourite album. It would drive me nuts wondering when it would be complete. Thank you, SBA. Besides, I had last year's Five-Star dollar and the 1990 Eisenhower Centennial dollar to satisfy my Eisenhower obsession. Of course, there is always hope for a Coin and Chronicles set in 2015.

Earle42 Bedrock of the Community United States 10051 Posts	Posted 01/20/2014 10:11 am Now that's a pretty Ike - and I normally do not care for toned coins!

OK - then how about a State Eisenhower dollar program? That's one of the mint gimmicks I might have actually gone for. But I would want to have kept the eagle on the moon REV - so maybe make a normal REV and a fancy REV for each of the 50 States.
