DCAM PF 69 is fine with me.
I can think of better things to do with the thousands asked than to throw it away on this.

If it remains finest known, in 10 years that could be cheap
This spectacular coin belongs in the ultimate Registry set of Eisenhower dollars and / or Registry set of 1968-Present Proof coins.
Yeah, because that's about the only reason to spend $15,000 on a coin when a very nearly equivalent one can be found for under $100, most likely. That insert that says "70" instead of "69" is worth $14,900, apparently...
What good are collectibles if no one collects them anymore?
Would you prefer to pay off all your debt and eat well
or to have a Dollar no one wants or you cannot even get out on?

Must be something wrong with it. Beware of bargain coins.
Great Coins are not cheap. Cheap Coins are not great.

You've got to be kidding me. I purchased an entire set of PCGS PR69 Ikes, Silver and Clad, for approximately 1/50th of the price for this one coin.

Everybody buys the best that they can afford.

No.
Even if I can afford a $1,000 coin, I'm not going to buy it if I need an electron microscope to see that it's better than a $100 coin with a lower number on the label, assuming it really is a better coin at all.

The point is the same coin in a 69 has little or no chance of appreciating in value as much as a 70 of which there is only one known.
Looking for alot of crap.

<< <i>Whats the record price for any Ike? >>
...About $60,000 for the unique '76-P proof.
<< <i>I can pretty much guarantee that if this was sent in to PCGS again, it would drop to a 69. The grader was probably just having a good day. I don't think one grader's opinion should be worth 15 grand+++ >>
Welcome to the world of the registry lottery.

For a coin to be graded a 70, a minimum of 3 graders must look at then coin and agree on the grade.

Someone 's crap is someone else's gold ..in this case , the seller is mining gold
That statement will hold true - until there are two known and believe me, that will probably happen.
I'd stick with a 69 too, probably not much upside, but far less downside.

The 1976(s) Ty 1 Ike is a "3 weight" coin - the only 3 weight coin in the series and deservingly so IMHO. Compare the pop 2 1971(s) Silver Ike with a 1 weight, which fetched around $16,240 when it sold on Teletrade (I am also informed it traded hands once again after that auction). The 1976(s) Ty 1 is worth 3x as many points as that 1971(s) for example and from what I can see whomever controls the 1976(s) Ty 1 PR70DC has a fairly easy time controlling the #1 slot in Proof Ikes (possibly for a long time to come absent another 76(s) Ty 1 PR70DC getting slabbed). There is a benefit to having the #1 set in nearly all coin series and my comment addresses that point. For those who could care less about Registry, of course the weights are meaningless.
I believe this ($20,160) may be the highest price an Ike dollar has ever sold for (excluding the unique 1976 NO S pattern Ike dollar in my personal modern rarities collection).

On a final note, I think the reverse stamp looks a bit light to be a 70. What a joke.
Nice looking Ike though.

No, everyone buys the best they can both afford if it's also something they want. Even if I was in the market for $15,000 coins, I'd be buying something else.
Must be nice to have that kind of disposable income to play in the registry that way.
I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

Think about it this way. That's $18k that isn't competing for what you are collecting, oh wait, you wanted the world's finest?
Are they going to pay you what you paid for this coin and regrade it properly?
<< <i>Wouldn't this be a risky investment? because there are still millions of these coins in government proof sets in the publics hands that have not been checked yet. There are probably at least a thousand potential PF70s out there. >>
If people don't send them to PCGS, it doesn't matter the possibilities that are out there.
