1972-S BS-SPIKE ON IKES HEAD

[goldbill]

I ran across this 1972-s BS, with clear spike on top of Ikes head. The rev. is the typ. II, with a shadow.
Is this a common??

Nice. I'll take a look at my inventory to see if I have a match.

Reminds me of the old WWI German helmets.

Been out hunting-- the spike also reminded me of the old Germanic helmet. I have been reading 3 of the recommend books. This a steep learning curve for me, especially when on a hit and miss basis. After being gone for a bit it seems like I have start all over. I hope that helps me learn it better.

Steve, is this particular spike common / rare? were you able to find a match?

I haven't been able to look through my stuff yet. I'd recommend hanging onto this one though.

I plan to hold all till I learn more.
Thanks again.

I miss ID this coin, it should be SB, as it is a silver Business strike.
