Diagnostics of Ike Variety -- 72-P

FrattLaw

I think, but can't remember the diagnostics for a variety of this coin. I know it was previously discussed but I can't find the thread.

I'm pretty sure the 72-P had a variety where the high relief die for the silver issue was used on the reverse.

The coin I found has a fully round Earth, 4 islands and some craters in side of the craters under the eagle. The reverse looks just like the 73-S.

Did I score?

Thanks for the help,

Michael

Michael, Here you go.

Thanks, how'd you find that?

Anyway, I guess I got a Type III, now I just don't know if it's worth anything.

Oh, Tad?

The Type 3 is the "easiest" of the 72-P to find in high grade. A nice MS65 is worth good money though, and MS66 is the highest graded to date.
