I wouldn't consider those lower grade with these particular varieties, JMO.

If you are not looking to spend allot, you can buy those coins raw for $2 or $3 and have PCGS grade them for $14, each. On eBay right now, MS64s are selling in the $60 range for each of those. I have one of each on there now that end tonight. They each grade MS64, but were graded before PCGS started attributing the variety on the holder. So, they are a little cheap right now, but I guarantee the varieties 200%. Take a look at the link below.

Have you tried "cherrypicking" at any local shows. I found 3 T1's and 2 T3's at our city's monthly show last week. All AU this time, but I've seen better examples just waiting to be found. And it's fun never the less to search through a bag of Ike's and see what can be found. Around here, Ike's are still considered the "ugly stepsister" in collecting so it's easy to look throught hem because no body else seems to want too.

BTW if you have never seen Supercoins webpage on the 72P varieties, here's a link. It's very good. I've printed it out and use it as a reference. '72-P Types

Oooops! Sorry about the previous post by notlogical. I wrote it, but didn't realize I was in my son's account. When I saw CU forum on the screen I assumed I was in my account. That's what happens when you have 2 numismatists in the house. The author has changed but the sentiment remains.

Well then thank you coinhusker, LOL i could under stand that with to collectors in the same house.
but as far as coin shows , i dont live close to a show. in WA state we have to. one in seattle and spokane. one is a 3 hour drive and seattle is 7 hour drive. i have requested time off to go to the spokane coin show but have not got the change to go. i realy do want to see a show. i think this year i will just call in sick for two days. and use up some sick time. LOL that teach them not to get me the time a wanted. LOL

But why is finding T12 & T3 Cherry picking? These are the common varieties.

jnd1955

well for me it would be the thrill of the hunt ,sence i have never been to a show. the t1 amd t3 are the comman of the three Ikes but the thrill of finding that t2 would be fun. and all i need are these three to complete my Ike set. then its off the the SBA dollar to finish that set, LOL only need 4 there. but there easy to find.

My pardon, I was using the term "cherry picking" euphemistically to describe the act of hunting for the varieties.

USMC_6115

All correct...the Types I and III won't cost you much in those grades and are easy to find, but the Type II is a different story. The "thrill of the hunt" definately applies to this variety. I've been looking and looking and looking and I've found maybe one or two over the years. NOTHING in high grade however

Good luck!
