I hope you find some goodies. I presume you know about some of the popular Ike varieties? '72 Type 2, '71-D Friendly Eagle Variety, Type 1 Bicentennials, Peg Leg, Tiger Claw, etc.

Given the nickel in Ikes, they usually don't look too old and dirty. I see Ag big dollars in your future.

This is what I am excited about. I can't wait to see what it is. This branch is full of young employees, they save all the "funny looking" coins for me.

Do you want them?

I said, "Yes of course, please hold them for me I'll be in on Tuesday." Ill be able to swing by on Tuesday to see what I assume will be Ike's, but....who knows.....

This happened Saturday just before closing, if I wasn't out of town I'd have picked them up strait away. Ill report back when I know more.

Sounds awesome!!! Let us know!!

Good luck! My favorite teller had 125 large dollars for me last week. All were Ikes, but one was a Type 1 Bicentennial. Not in the best condition, but still fun to find!

Should have asked if the coins had a man or woman on them. Good luck, I hope they're all 90%. It would definitely be the most legendary CRH score.

I did, she said they are "rolled up and in the vault." I don't want to seem overly curios I guess, and cause one of them to consult the interwebs.

Not sure if being rolled is a good thing- and didnt she say they were old and dirty and now says they are rolled? Maybe the rolls are old looking and dirty? Im hoping for the best for ya- let us know and if Ag please show us the pics of the silver p0rn

I have found Ike's in rolls before, and the rolls were dirty as heck. I'm assuming these are simply Ike's. You all will surely know one way or the other. Ill update this evening.
