Eisenhower Dollar

Brief Description

The obverse features the profile of President Dwight D. Eisenhower facing left, with the word 'LIBERTY' above, 'IN GOD WE TRUST' at the lower left, and the date 1972 at the bottom. This specific specimen appears to have significant tarnishing or residue on the surface.

Historical Significance

The Eisenhower Dollar was the first US silver-dollar-sized coin issued after a decades-long hiatus in dollar production. It commemorates both President Dwight D. Eisenhower (who died in 1969) and the first lunar landing (reflected on the reverse, not shown).

Estimated Value

$1.00 - $1.50 (Face value or slightly above for heavily circulated/damaged examples)

Care Instructions

Store in a cool, dry place away from moisture. Avoid cleaning or scrubbing the coin with chemicals or abrasives, as this can permanently damage its surfaces and lower its numismatic value. Use cotton gloves or hold by the edges to prevent oils from your skin from affecting the metal.
