 Isos Quote:Y'all have made me want to start collecting Ikes! I picked up a bicentennial proof recently on ebay. Not anything special, but I think it's a pretty cool coin. The 1976 is as good a place to start as any. It's not a very big set, only 32 coins. Now you can start shopping for your next Ike. |

Quote:Be prepared to spend! I could have just bought a complete set on ebay I suppose, but it would not have been nearly as satisfying as assembling my own collection. I'm very happy with it. Oh boy, do I know what you mean. I just picked up a 1971-P PCGS MS64. I'm still looking for the 1972-P and D in at least MS63 or better. |

I ought to post a picture of my 72-S pocket piece. Carrying it folded in a handkerchief in my breast pocket has given it some nice toning! In the meantime, here's something.  |

Found a clipper! First straight clip I've found, I also have a '72 with a curved clip. Very nice! Quote:

Just another note about that straight clip... a few guys who I respect a ton in regards to Ikes have told me it's the only straight clip '71 they've ever seen.

Yep, got one. However, it's the damaged FEV I pulled out of my last bag. :( Shame. Did finally make me count my FEV's, I own 16. :)

Picked up 5 Ikes from a tellers tray while picking up my boxes of halves today (the 6th one in the picture had been sitting on my desk for a while so I took it home with the rest of them)  |

My latest acquisitions for the IKE collection:  My OCD is telling me that I must find a 1974-S in OGP, graded by NGC as PF68 CAMEO! |
