See This Colorful Ike in the Raw... it's on its way, Fast Track to PCGS!

braddick

Registry quality!
I thought I'd show it here, raw, before it's graded/slabbed by PCGS. It'll go via PCGS's fast track and I hope to have it back before the end of the month!





I'll add it to my Registry upon its return.

Very Pretty coin !!

Is this a BU, or a PR type 1

Thanks Craig!

Mike, it's a PROOF.

Braddick,
personally I like this coin -- any concern they will AT it???? What caused the toning??:

magikbilly

Hi,
apologies, but I don't like it. And I would never buy it with that color.

Best,
Billy

braddick

Am I concerned PCGS will AT it? No.

I know it's not color all appreciate it but I think it beats the heck out of the typical Ike. Hey, it takes a lot to make these coins look good!

Cool coin, and I like it, but it looks kind of like Ike has one heck of a shiner!

Bochiman

Looks cool from the pics.

I just don't get the people that HAVE to post to a thread stating how they don't like a coin (Braddick didn't ask for opinions...just stated "here was an Ike" and he was showing it).
Sheesh!

So everyone who responded to this thread is wrong in doing so? All 6, including of course YOU, gave unsolicted opinions if you want to count. Or is it because I did not like it? Only post the pleasant - is that it? Of what use is that? Or maybe we were just supposed to just look on in mute silence? I am sure Braddick is a big boy and can handle my not liking his IKE - he acknowledged after my post that he knows this color is not for everyone and that IKE's "take a lot to make look good". You are the only one with a problem - oxymoronic as it is since you gave an unsolicited opinion youself. You said "looks cool" - to me that means mediocre. Like saying "interesting". How do I know you really don't like it? Who cares?

I love it! I have one or two that look similar but not even close to that condition....What causes it?

magikbilly

Bochiman, you can try and send me all the PM's you want - knock yourself out, or preferably, up just remember who started this. I voiced my opinion same as you did, before you. If Braddick has a problem he would have said so in his responses, before you posted. Now, why you think I care what your unsolicited opinion is about my admittedly unsolicited opinion of Braddick's Ike is something understood only by you, and perhaps that's as it should be. Considering what you wrote in your (long) PM from which I quote "I have enough courtesy to keep my stupid opinions to myself when there is no need to be public with them" I guess I do understand why you felt the need to PM me. Why not PM those that questioned the color, or have you done that too? It is over. Leave me ALONE.

I like it. No, I love it. Thanks for posting. cheers, alan mendelson

Any cool colored Ike is a nice Ike!

Everyone is entitled to his/her opinions, so let them have their opinions. That's why it's America.

Bear

I think the coin is not only lovely, it is dictinct and most unusual.

Of course, Ike looks a bit like a racoon but there is an animal in

all of us looking to get out.

Gandyjai

A real beauty!

Even if they AT it, you will get a good buck for it.

Looka this one, and yours blows this POS away!: POS fake toned IKE

earlwbollinger

That is a pretty neat coin.
Good luck on the grading and slabbing.

magikbilly

Bochiman,
send me even more PM's calling me silly schoolboy names if you like - you only serve to confirm my opinion of your intelligence. Since your argument has degraded to name calling (very telling in itself) there is no longer any point to this discussion from my side - to continue would be folly.

Billy

Bear

Now people, its just a coin. Some may like it and some may not.

Let us not go into the Thangsgiving Holiday all in a snit. All that really

matters with a coin is that is currant owner likes the coin.

segoja

Keep the bickering to a minimum.

Ikes are COOL!!! particularly when they are neatly toned!

magikbilly

Hi,
don't look to me in this matter - I did not start it, but I will gladly end it. I will say nothing further in defense of my giving a simple opinion and getting flak from someone who also gave an opinion. I tried once already, and I will say it again today - case closed, please! Now if Bochiman will stop PM'ing it will be concluded on both sides. Holiday wishes to ALL concerned

Billy

Edited to add: I have blocked Bochiman's PM's so this IS concluded. I know I should never have even responded to his remarks - but I have every right to give my opinion and will NOT apologize for it to anyone. I do apologize for wasting peoples time in this thread with this issue but I will not be "policed" by someone who is apparently keeping track of my posts for reasons unknown to me. Billy

MoneyLA

One question please... if you can put the needless bickering aside.... what is the cause or origin of the Ike toning? Album, bags, rolls, mint process, what? cheers, alan mendelson

Bochiman

Agree with Manofcoins....when is the expected result from PCGS?
btw...Billie...go back to your dark, dank, cave. Take your pathetic whinings and negativity back there with you

Pat....I just can't get over how smooth the Ike looks......is that due to your lighting or is it really that smooth in person?
