Bit of a buzz kill , but still a cool find - and the plate job kept it from looking like the rest of the clad rubbish !
 

YOU SUCK!!!. lol..
Cool find

Cool find! I have only found one Ike dollare, a 1972 but mine is not gold plated (bummer)

Take a smashed aluminum can out and sit it a foot away from the dollar. Swing over them and you can tell that the can has a much wider signal than the dollar. The dollar will be a shorter signal, like a coin!

HH ALL
 

I found a really brown crusty one. I think I like yours better.
 

hey I would have had a momentary brain lapse on one of those! still a good find, would have made my day
 

Very nice find. I'd have to spend it at the gas station to see the look on the clerks face.
 

Awesome!!! Congrats.
 

Nice. Can we see the Boy Scout clips?
 

Sweet dollar coin find!! And the gold plating kept if from degrading also, bonus.
 

If I saw that in the ground I would probably grab the nearest stranger near me and excitedly show them what I was about to pull out of the ground, then upon realizing the fake for what it truly was I would have to embarrassingly apologize to the person and explain that they would have done the same if they thought they had just unearthed a massive solid gold coin. :coins::laughing7:
