Nice  Hard to believe that next year will mark the 50th Anniversary of the introduction of the Ike! Think they will make a 50th Anniv coin to honor it?

I sent an email to the Citizen Coinage Advisory Committee (info@ccac.gov) asking them to lobby for a 50th Ike... Can't hurt!

Quote: The faded R is easy to see, but you have an impressive eye to find those gouges. I didn't know the gouges were there until I had it under the lens. They weren't detectable in the seller's pics. Just an added bonus. Isn't it strange, though? Gouges on a proof die?

The way the mint is doing things today I don't see why this wouldn't happen at some point, especially if the Morgan/Peace dollar bullion program sees fruition.

Wow Darth! I see the label says this is a Peg Leg. If you want, send it to me and I can get rid of the plastic shell, put a blob of silver solder in the right spot (and sculpt it), then put it into an Air Tite for you.  Seriously...nice coin!   Quote:Quote:
