Dan, would it not have been better to point out that this coin was struck in P, and show an example. I know this is the internet, but sometimes asking "where did you hear that" can sound harsh and denigrating, just an observation.

Worth maybe 3.00 on a good day. They made a boatload of these in '75 and '76. Even back then there was not a great demand to USE them b/c just a couple in the pocket felt like lead weights. So there are Ike collectors (guilty as charged), but with a few rare exceptions, there are plenty to go around. And unless one is assigned a very high grade, they can actually be picked up at local banks a lot of the time just for by asking if they have any of the old, large dollar coin..

BTW - here is what "Type II" means:

This is a fake grading company, so please do not buy coins in that holder. You will over-pay.
