Not bad for $1.50 a coin...

Thought I would try my hand at some Ikes I picked up at a local show for $1.50 each. Sent them off to NGC as a filler on another order.

1972 TYPE 3 $1 MS66
1971 D $1 MS66
1971 D $1 MS66
1971 D $1 MS65
1971 D $1 MS65
1971 D $1 MS64

    Now this really pi$$es me off! I have yet to get a 66 grade on some darn nice looking mint set IKE's and you score with some $1.50 coins at a local show!!!

    A-r-r-g-g-h-h-h!

    Send em in to PCGS for crossover.
    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.

    Marty:

    Nice grades; way to go!

    I'm not at all familiar with the value of Ikes; what do MS66 examples of this date bring?
    When in doubt, don't.

    $800 For an NGC or PCGS?

    With IKES there is a significantly large difference.
