I found one of these in a pawn shop for $15. 40% UNC Ike, half and quarter still sealed. I don't know how much it's really worth, but I got it way below melt...

I like the "Ike" dollar. I have one, but its not in the best condition. I'd like to find one of the sets you just picked up. Sounds like you got a pretty good deal.

 that was a nice price, since I see some online retail prices around $30 plus shipping |

There's lots of them on ebay, but not that cheap. This pawn shop had very few coins, and had no idea of their real value. Ikes are really nice. I always wanted to find a 40% one; I didn't think it would be so soon. |

The one I have is 40% silver. It's in a package with a blue chip. Somehow, even in a package, it got a fingerprint on it.

If it is in a package with a blue chip it may be 40% silver but it isn't a 1976. 1971 - 74

ajohnson1983: I was just coming to the forum to ask a question about a bicentennial quarter that I have. It is a 1974 proof 40% silver still in the package but, just like you, it some how got a fingerprint on it. Strange.

You paid $15 for about $21 worth of silver. I say you did well. |
