Thanks FTB, I appreciate that. I'll finish everything tomorrow. I'm attempting to find the best example so I can finally complete my Dansco album.

Soon I'll have one to post here - I have a brown Ike ordered (paid only 13 cents above its original issue price of $10). It'll be the first Ike I've bought rather than had given to me.

Here's a couple currently going for a swim;  EDIT: The Bicentennial is the weakest struck Ike I've ever seen. Had glue all over it. Thought it was cool so figured I'd save it... it's not really beat up, those are planchet marks all over it.

Dumped my discards from CRH'ing and asked if the teller had any dollar coins. She replied, "only the big ones." Of the seven that she had:
Two 71D's 72 73S Proof (but really gunked up) 76D (possibly Type 1?) 76S Proof (some of the same gunk but not as much) 78

cc- that is one beautiful Ike! The reverse looks like it's glowing from the inside. Did you acquire it from the bay?

I bought it raw in a three pack. This quarter was the other nice toner in the package. The half had some rust colored toning - but nothing worth getting imaged. The Ike and the half graded MS-65. The quarter went Unc. Details- Questionable Color. There's no question in my mind that the color is real on the quarter and the coin is a showstopper. I've NEVER seen color like this on a silver-clad.

It looks like similar but more intense coloration to the Ike it came with. Honestly, if they think it has questionable coloration, they should think the same about the Ike.
They're smoking something.

That quarter is gorgeous, and I too think the toning is authentic. Thanks for posting the images!
