    Pat, that is very cool - I wonder how they could tell it is a proof! Any idea?

    Edited to add: Duh! I was reading the PO-01 as PRoof-01

    In any case, I know a cool coin when I see one! image

    Too bad you can't make out a fraction of the date.

    Neat coin.

    Only if you have ten thousand of them.

    (I will pay $500.00 for any Ike holdered by PCGS as PO01. That bounty stands for as long as it takes to get me one!)

    Pat, when did NGC start slabbing coins w/io a date? I thought ANACS was the only one that did that..............

    Upon looking at this again, it could be argued that the coin should not have been certified since no date could be established. The feeling may have been at the time that we could certify such a low grade coin as to type knowing that no harm could come due to the fact that there are no ultra rarities in the set (especially in low grade).

    However, I think you won't see this in the future and you may actually have quite a collectors item.

    Craig,
    I know the above post looks a bit of a mess, but it's a PM from R. Montgomery, to me, regarding this Ike. NGC has not, and will not, in the future, be grading 'no date' worn coins (unless, of course, it's a type that is identified without the assistance of the date).

    I bet that Ike has seen the inner workings of more slot machines then the Mafia.

    Pat, show me a handwritten letter and then I'll be impressed! image

    Again, a very cool coin, with great comments in regards to the slabbing!!!
