Eisenhower Dollar 1973-S Silver Proof

One of the only Eisenhower dollars to contain 40% silver, the 1973-S Silver Proof is a popular among collectors. Although the Eisenhower dollar collection does not contain high numismatic value, it is a fun collection for beginner collectors. With their availability and low price tags, the Eisenhower collection is perfect as a gift or just to encourage coin collecting. It is believed that the Eisenhower dollars will become as valuable as the Morgan silver dollar, since the Morgan wasn't popular when it was first minted either. Sleekly finished with a shimmering finish, the 1973-S Silver Proof is sensitive to fingertips and should be handled carefully. The San Francisco Mint has never disappointed collectors, sticking to their high quality control and sharply struck coins. Dwight D. Eisenhower graces the obverse, in a prominent side portrait. The back entails a large eagle, where the coin's mint-mark can also be found.
