A cheap, lazy snag nets an ANACS old white Ike, a 1973-S Ike removed from its blue Ike packaging by someone at some point. The seller used scanner instead of photos...so I will re-shoot it when I get it to restore all the stuff the scanner stripped away, namely, luster.

Darth, congratulations on the Nightcrawler my friend . Very hard little beast to nail down. I have yet to find one and the one one were able to get Brian to part with is a beautiful specimen.
I absolutely love the toning on the 71 65+ make the entire coin just pop right out at you. Great Hunting Job

Quote: Took some photos in-hand of that 73S ANACS. Hopefully they are at least semi-decent. The luster is super-strong and everywhere, against an almost frosted or matte appearance with some slight edge toning. Looking good!

Stopped at the bank to ask for rolls of halves, as I'm 1 roll short a full box after finding 19 40% in the last box. There in the teller tray were 3 Ikes, 2 1976 and a 1971 told her the tooth fairy needed the Ikes, so she thought that was so nice of grandpa to give them away that she allowed that I could have all 3 of them. Also a SBA was in her tray, along with $6.00 in loose common halves. Living the dream, Webekin
