A 1776-1976 Ike dollar from an uncirculated mint set. Occasionally one can find toning taking place in this particular set--usually limited to a warm, gold-like hue. This one had purple as well.

Bought this from one of my co-workers today. This has to be by far the most worn Ike I've seen in person. I suspect it was someone's pocket piece for many years. I'm tempted to add it to my own collection of pocket pieces so it can continue the ride, but am up in the air since I prefer to do all silver.

I've only seen 3 with more wear. If you're looking for silver Ike's that worn you probably won't find one, I've only ever seen 1 with even close to that wear and you couldn't tell it from a cald ike.

Cool wear on that Ike. I don't see them worn often.

I do have a 1971S UNC that was a coin machine find some months ago, with very slight, barely noticeable rim damage on the reverse. That might be a good pocket candidate since now it's only worth melt.

In the spirit of sharing photos of well-worn Ikes. Picked this up from a teller's tray a few years ago.
