Ive started asking for "large dollars" when I go into different banks, and I've actually been surprised at the number of Ikes that I've gotten. Today, I got a bag of 12, and one was a 1976 clad proof, variety 2! Thats the first proof coin I've pulled from a teller tray that I can remember  . I guess I will try and do a collection from circulation. I doubt I will find the silver proofs, but the rest should be fun to search for! |

I just picked up another 20 of them. The teller is always happy to give them to me. I'm pretty excited about this sweet deal I have going.

I came across this one in one of my dollar boxes. I thought I would share it.  |

I wish I had found it in a bank box. It was a purchase I made 6 or 7 years ago and forgot I had it. It was in one of my PCGS blue boxes that was supposed to be just Morgans.

Hey Baysinger, could I get a copy of that last Ike pic from you? I'd like that for a backdrop on my Mac desktop - nice pics!

Yep, 55 in that picture. At my last count I have 118 of them. I am really trying not to go get more... but they keep calling my name!

This is the only Ike I have. It's a 1971-S that I bought it at an antique store for like $3 about 7 years ago. It's a bit messy because I haven't taken good care of it over the years. It's way shinier in person though.   |
