Beautiful!
1953 Eisenhower inaugural medal
1957 Eisenhower inaugural medal - This came with papers which gave a wonderful review of the history of presidential inaugural medals - all in very small print. The vice president is often shown with the president for inaugural medals from a president's second term.
A campaign button from the 1952 presidential race.
And one that probably came from 1956.
And a Jugate, probably from 1952.
And a fairly scarce piece that was worn by a campaign worker.
I LIKE IKE TOO ! Here are some club medals overstruck on Eisenhower Dollars...

Very pretty coins! I especially like the 72-D and I bet it looks way better in hand.
When I saw this, I had to have it, of course he was sold out, but I happened upon this one in Long Beach and it was my first Dan Carr piece

These are nice Ike’s, what do they grade?
Just imaged these, both PCGS MS66:
PCGS gave them all a 64. That was many years ago.
The grade does not fit, you must resubmit.
I pulled them from rolls so I'm happy with 64s. Not worth the cost to try again.
My Washington Type B/C Set
I just ran across this beautiful PR68 on CoinFacts researching coins while reading @braddick's thread:
I'm always a bit confused as to why sellers don't show the TrueViews in their auctions
No provenance available as it's in a private registry set.
Cool old thread
Mr_Spud
During elementary and middle school, we always had projects on the presidents. Popular choices were always Kennedy, Washington, or Jefferson as well as Obama (current president at the time). I always went with Eisenhower. The choice was simple for me - his leadership in WWII was unparalleled and he was never chosen for the projects. The other kids always looked at me like I was crazy, but I didn't care. I got a great topic with no worry of the president I wanted getting chosen. A win win!
Here's my only Ike, sold a few months ago. I found it CRH years ago. Cherrypicked later out of my collection. The images were taken right after the coin graded as part of my first submission three or so years ago IIRC.

Here's another PR68 from CoinFacts, this one not in any registry set:
Great coins @Mr_Spud and @FlyingAl!

Superb collections are built more by omission than by addition.
