Check the fonts for Type 1 and Type 2. Type 1 are worth more than Type 2. Some people have had luck getting $1.25 each from their dealers. I keep them and use them for tips. The younger generation is bewildered by the hunk of metal.

I'm looking for one just to have for collecting purposes. I asked at the bank today but no luck.

You can get lucky and sell them double face to some collectors. Mostly there is a small premium on ebay in lots of 25 or more. Mind you it is small. May gain a few bucks after fees.

Coin dealer in my area has a bin with Ikes selling at 1.25, 1.50, or 2.00 each.

When I asked him are these Ikes special?. He said, "NO. but some people like them and buy them"

I take them when offered only because I got a 40% silver one this year. I got a Silver Eagle last year, and my son has gotten several Morgan and Peace dollars just asking for the big dollars.
I use the non silver Ikes for gas.

I always ask for big dollars and most of the time the answer is
"We just have the gold dollars". Here it is when I can say that Silver is more precious
than gold.
