I love them! They are big coins and although the design isn’t the prettiest they sometimes come with great color. I am working on building the finest collection of toned MS Ikes. Here are a few:
I've had this one for a while.. No colors like the above coins, but I've always liked that it is mark free. Absolute clean fields which I think can be tough to find..
I just had a thread about Ike's. The variety aspect. It's funny, there's a limit to the Ike dollar. Not as abundant as other denominations. What, about 12 different coins? At least these are the most interesting dollar since the Peace dollar!
No comparison to the Susan B. Anthony, Sac. Dollar or the Presidents Dollar.

Big Ike fan here. I have a Capital plastic holder that was put together in 1988. A filled Dansco and I am working on a complete PCGS set. Only missing the 1972 type II and type III.
I like Ike's and to me, this is the only coin that I like with color on them or without. I believe that they are one of the best value coins to collect today that doesn't break the bank and you can get them with 40% silver. I like the look of the coin, moreso the reverse, its big and again, 40% silver. I can see these coins having a lot more value in years to come, especially as more and more people collect them.

Here’s a big, 40% silver, colorful Ike just for you.
Inauguration medal of Eisenhower, designed by Gilroy Roberts (obverse) and Frank Gasparro (reverse).
Interestingly, the reverse uses the same device as the trillion-dollar coin that is being touted.

I like them. As they age, some are looking nicer from album toning and some of the proof brown boxes.
I like em😊
I even have a few.
You mean someone actually liked them in the first place?
I like the big doubled dies and color coins like this one-

Okay,
I can see now that I have more than one reason to go to my den and pull out some of my collection.
I’ll be back😉

@koynekwest
That’s a great looking Ike👌
I like the silver ms pieces.
But, I like any silver coin. Do I love them? Not so much. 💔

I like them but I only own a couple. I’ve thought about spending more time trying to find nicer ones.

The coin is so big it's a shame they didn't take the obverse in a different direction. They really had an opportunity with such a big canvas.
david3142, those are the nicest I've ever seen!
Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.
Ikes R Cool
David3142 Those Ikes look familiar
Ike Specialist
Finest Toned Ike I've Ever Seen, been looking since 1986
It's an NGC PR-67 star.


Impossible to get a decent shot of a proof behind plastic but it it is....
Those are the prettiest Ike's I have ever seen!!!
Awesome shot!
Not too much really, but I do like this one..


Thanks, Joe!
Those are some pretty amazing circulation strike Ikes, david3142.
Don't have one. But after seeing these IKEs ... I'm getting one ... and I don't care what my wife says.
WOW, holy color! Let me try to go and dig something out of the safe to compare... NOT!
I've had this one for a while.. No colors like the above coins, but I've always liked that it is mark free. Absolute clean fields which I think can be tough to find..
I have an Ike dansco. Just missin a few.

I imagine they do! Thanks for selling them to me. 😀
I do have several from other sources but the hoard you had is the best I’ve ever seen. Let me know when you come across a 71-D, 77-D, and 74-S!
Wonderful coin.

How about another toner/woodie?

I like Ikes and they are popular sellers at shows (when there used to be shows).
My bag of Ikes:
Gonna get me a $50 Octagonal someday. Some. Day.

That is really cool.....and to think that $4.64 in postage would be enough to mail maybe 6-7 coins today....
One of my targets.
