    Au is worth about $35-50 raw $60 graded

    Approx 100,000 minted

    There are 2 dies

    survival rate is apparently much lower than minted




    rumour has it that many IKES were sent overseas and used for slot machines

    I'll see those two dies and double that mintage estimate. image
    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!
  • So it is 2-4 dies with 100-200,000 produced??

    Seems like a lot to get any premium.

    100,000 compared to what total mintage???

    We're not talking about thousands of $$$, just around $100.

    Compare to the 1893-S Morgan with 100,000 mintage. Worth jsut a tad more than $100
