Not enough time to scan  I got a 1976-S clad and a (If I remember correctly) 1971-S Silver Ike!

PWinDavis, Not sure if you are interested in the newer Ike varieties that have been discovered in the last couple of years. But I noticed on your 1971 S Proof that it is of a quite early die state. And if you look closely just to the North East of the designers initials ( FG) on the reverse. There is a small man there If you look closely you may be able to see a split distinguishing a pair of legs and in the upper part of the little Golfer man there may be a club over his right shoulder as if he is in the middle of his back swing. we have found the Man Golfing on the moon on 1971 and 1972 Business circulation strike, 40% Business Strikes (Blue Packs and Brown Box Proof Ikes. It is easiest to see on the VLDS Very Early Die State 71 and 72 Ike's Here is the thread where we are gathering pictures of specimens of this very unique discovery. http://forum2.ikegroup.info/viewtop...?f=38&t=1491

Thanks Stewart, this is great information! I will spend some time at the Ike group site and learn more about this. Paul
