I need some help with a few Ikes please

coinsarefuncoinsarefun Posts: 21,781 ✭✭✭✭✭
I looked though these Ikes and found nothing that would stop me fro selling them for melt.
But, I would feel better if I had a few more eyes on them and make sure I didn't sell anything
with more value......DDO/DDR or any oothererror or variety.


Thanks guy'simage

    Gee thanksimageimage

    I'm in Az visiting my mom and they are my
    brother in laws coins. He asked me to check them and cash them
    in so I wanted to meek sure I didn't miss anything.

    He also has a roll of 1965 quarters he rolled in 1968
    So I'm going to check them out..... Anything to look for?

    Sell the for "melt"?

    Surely your kidding?


    They are copper nickel clad and you'll get far more for them by spending them at face value than you'd ever get for the copper value!

    And, BTW, they just do not look particularly collectible IMO as they appear to be just circulated IKE's.
    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.

    Used to be able to get coffee and donuts with one of them years ago, now might not even get a coffee with them all.

    I'm sure it isn't but I'd want to make sure that first one isn't a type I obverse.

    There should be a prominent crease in the neck on the bottom and the middle crease shouldn't extend to below the middle of the ear.

    The authoritative reference only shows very minor and really insignificant DDO/DDR coins for what you've shown.

    Most, with the exception of the 1972-D DDO/DDR coin have no premiums associated with them at all.

    Of course, thats not to say that some really significant DDO or DDR isn't out there but, truth be told, if you happened across one, Stefanie wouldn't need to ask. image

    They all look like spenders to me. I can't tell from the pics though about DDO/Rs though!

    COMEON! Even circulated common Ikes have appeal for their novelty so they are great for tips to a server you want to reward and even better for kids who often really like these big, heavy coins.

    Don't spend 'em, give them away at coin shows to kids. Rob
    Modern dollars are like children - before you know it they'll be all grown up.....
