Found six Clark Grubers at one dealer a few minutes ago.
Is this uncommon or common shopping opportunity ?
Unusual to say the least, especially in quantity. I have tried to sell some of my D. Carr items but most dealers turn their noses to them. It's an acquired taste.

Looking for help from someone that has a 1975 Bicentennial IKE Die Pair #5 slabbed by ANACS.
I have one and it lists that a 1971-74 Ike was used. On Dan's site, this die pair is listed as using a Bicentennial Ike dated 1976. I bought it from a board member and they did not have the insert to send me.
Also, I believe it is the Clad one since it does not state 40% Ike used.
Any help out there? Does someone have one slabbed?
Thanks.
@pcgscacgold - Here is what I have:
Dan Carr Fantasy Overstrike - Type 3 reverse - o/s on 71-74, 77-78 Ike (either 73 ot 78) - no original insert Die pair 1

Thanks, I knew you would have it.
I have a feeling my label is an error since it states 1971-74 Ike was used. There is no Die Pair 5 with that host coin (from what I can see).
I started ordering from Dan in 2012 so I missed the release of the Ike Dollars in 2011.
I really like Lindys 1975 DP5 and haven't seen many. I did an ebay search for DC Ikes......crickets.
It's on my want list now....
** just checked my ANACS order and it went from processing to assembly today.....grades soon on 17 coins.

On my list too. I have the 1975 Ike Die Pair 5 Clad, need that 40%er (and maybe an insert corrections along the way).
I have 12 DC items at ANACS. Dropped them off at the ANA. They are such a nice group of people to work with.
According to my Moonlight Mint account my first order was September 2013.
I may have ordered prior to that as I kind of recall I did not immediately create a password.
Before my first MM order I picked up several 1964D Peace off fleabay due to fact I took a class with a Denver Mint employee who was on Denver production floor in 1965 and witnessed them getting made. Everyone at the Mint was allowed to buy two, then purchases were cancelled as the entire run was recalled.
Anyways, my Dad collected coins, silver from circulation overseas. He saved Morgan , Peace by the piece or roll via military banks during end of WW2, Korea, Viet Nam. He paid above face for some Mint products in early 1971-76. I still have his, mine & Mom's 1971S Silver Blue Ikes addressed to our on base housing in Maryland.
Back when I was a child I recall seeing a 1970 IKE prototype on a magazine cover at a base exchange.
I acquired every DC 1970 Ike that crossed my path in last 14 years. I am 3 for 3. And it seems I have all 5 Ike COAs. Eagle landing on Moon design is my favorite, but fat letter Type 1 1975 is a keeper too. Type 2 1976 reverse just doesn't rock my world so I own zero Carrs.

With the recent posts on the Moonlight Mint 1970 and 1975 Ikes, I sure hope that Daniel gets around to the 1979 Ike! I recall him mentioning that he was likely done with the Peace $ series after the 1929-S, 1930-D, 1932-D, and 1933-S, but that he was considering a 1979 for the Ike series. I can only wish and wait. Die pair 6 please.

Chief, I think they just do ’em how ever they feel that day‼️I don’t see why it’s not a 70 either. No marks or blemish anywhere ‼️(# 2 should arrive Monday ‼️👍)
Wouldn’t it be great if the graders had to explain (in the returning paper work”notes” ) why a MS69 didn’t make a MS70 ‼️
Bet there’d be a whole lot more MS70S ‼️‼️
Does anyone know the best way to store these bars⁉️
Dan sent them in an ( kinda like wax envelope), is it ok to keep them in those envelopes ⁉️(Asking for a friend)‼️

.
The wax paper envelopes (also known as "glassine envelopes" in stamp collecting parlance) are neutral and will not harm the silver. They are not air-tight, however. But silver ingot collectors don't generally mind toning on their bars (some even prefer it).
After many years one finally showed up on ebay. This is the first one I've ever seen anywhere.
It's the 2006 International Association of Silver Art Collectors Coin Club Medal by Dan.
It is a 39mm, "brushed" Bronze Medal with a reeded edge.
It's in very good shape for being 18 years old, a fun find in the wild.....

As weights of Silver Ike and Clad Ike are not the same, this can help decipher if an overstrike is on Silver or Clad Ike:
Excellent info. I wish I had the insert for mine. Then I would crack it out and resubmit to have it corrected. Thanks for posting your 40% coin.

Consider me snakebit when it comes to the Antiqued Octagons.
I've never got a 70. I thought for sure this one would finally be the one....
Why the 69, what do you see?
Chief, I think they just do ’em how ever they feel that day‼️I don’t see why it’s not a 70 either. No marks or blemish anywhere ‼️(# 2 should arrive Monday ‼️👍)
Bullsitter, that's the nicest antiqued octagon I've ever seen. Love it.
