Found a silver Ike

[kd5txx]

First one I ever saw. Teller was pulling halfs from her drawer and pulled 2 Ikes. I saw one looked silver so bought them both and 6 halfs. 2 were 40%ers. So now I have one. I guess they may not be worth a whole lot but I sure have never seen one. And this one is in Perfect shape.

Good find on the Ike. Barbers, IH, and Standing Liberty Quarters,are easier to find than a Silver Ike.

Have not scored a silver IKE in over a year. Nice grab!

Are silver Ikes minted with the "S" mintmark? I had a few hundred dollars in Ikes and turned them in at the bank. Wasn't worth the trouble to ebay them.

I would be dancing all the way to my car if I found that! I've been able to find around 50 Ikes so far, but no silver. Congrats!

Yep, all silver Ikes will have the S mintmark, they were only issued as collectibles from the mint

Awesome find! In ten years of on and off CRH I've only ever gotten one silver Ike and one 1921 Morgan -- that was awesome, I asked the teller if they had any of the big dollars and she pulls out a 1921 Morgan and asks if I want that one.... It was almost impossible to retain my composure

Way to go on a very nice find!
