If you're Looking for a Type 2 Eisenhower......

Don't look at this one as it is not a Type 2 but a Type 3 with either grease filling or a weak strike on the Islands.

Carefully examine the photo below and do not just cincentrate on the position of the Islands but also the shape of the State of Florida. Florida has a different shape in all three different types.

Additionally, the Type 1 and Type 3 Earths are created from "raised" devices while the Type 2 Earth is almost exclusively made up of "incused" lines.

And NO, that is not my auction. And YES, I have informed the seller.
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.



The name is LEE!

    Your Correct Lee. It looks like a Type I reverse to me. Very close but no cigar.

    I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom I provide, then question the manner in which I provide it. I prefer you said thank you, and went on your way, Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon, and stand to post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to!

    JMO, but...

    Looking at the Islands it does appear to be a type 3, but when looking at Florida it looks like a type 2!?
    Could there be a type 4? image

    The Type 2 Florida is almost shaped like a Tornado so I'm reasonably certain that this is a Type 3 coin.

    The seller responded to my informative email with this:

    Dear lcl1119,

    Rest assured this is a type II Eisenhower, I've sold a large number of these and had many certified, sometimes it's difficult to get a good photo through my loop, thank you for the heads up though,

    Cheers,

    Nick


    Hopefully nobody will buy this sucker because if they send it in for grading, they'll quickly see that its a Type 3.
