    thanks for sharing - beautiful coin - dont collect IKE's, except for the varities - feel that the reverse is one of the most striking patterns on US coins - love the toning - I would most definitely keep that one!!

    That is really nice and some sweet toning! Is it slabbed and if so what is the grade or what would you put it at? I would guess a 65..looks like some small marks on the cheek and neck. Just curious!

    The coin is pretty clean except for the 2 marks at a 45 degree angle on the hair. If I sent it in, I would think 65 with a shot at 66.

    Nice. I have a full set, but not because "I" collected them. I would keep that one, and I promise not to bring up the NT/AT thing.

    That is most certainly a keeper. Nice coin!
