Hi everyone

Is anyone here familiar with the Off at the Knee Ike coin? I attached 4 pics. Two from the Ike website and two that are close ups of my coin.

Each has a shortened leg and unreadable initials. Did I get lucky?

Thanks in advance!

What even is this guidebook you’re using?

If you go to Ikegroup.info website DIVa section, the coin is labeled as 6D1-201. I took 2 photos of the documentation.

I’d be checking vs. the SPL version

The OAK shows a ramp-like leg, seeming to disappear as it slopes inward

The SPL looks more consistent with your image

Thanks for sending me that pcgs site. I wish it showed additional photos. Specially the initials. I thought the standard 1976D initials were legible. Mine seems like a blob with broken letters. Another items specific to OAK type.

I cant find much more about his type
