In the video I did forget to mention that there are a few examples of S mint mark Ike dollars which are clad so I suggest looking at the edge of the coin to be 100 certain it is silver 👍🏽🔥🐉

I have one for sale
Comment from : @asifrahman4066

You did not cover the bicentennial issue's (1776-1976) and according to the Redbook these came in both copper-nickel clad and 40 silver with the S mint mark I have one that I cannot decide which it is since the edge reveals slight indications of copper but not all the way around the perimeter In other words the edge of a clad version is mostly copper and consistently wide around the entire perimeter Is there a way to tell for sure? Thanks

Of course ije was on the dime not the Eagle has landed dollar and now FDR is on the dime and im on the dole duh!😂❤
Comment from : @johnaustin6067

Fun fact: Kennedy to Eisenhauer now spelled Eisenhower and solid 70 or 90 silver to this garbage Mandella Efect 100!😮😢 They were all solid silver and half as thick my great grandma gave them to us every Christmas when I was a kid so I 100 know what I'm talking about and Ike instead of Kennedy on the Eagle has landed now not solid silver dollar is utterly ridiculous to me!😮 And oh the debasement!😢 The ones my great grandma gave us were circulated too!😮

I have alot 1 dolar coins
Comment from : @robertogalarza464

Okay, an Eisenhower 1971 with no mint mark, so do you know what it's worth ?
Comment from : @jennybeatty8984

Keep in mind folks that not all S Mint IKES contain silver The S Mint Bicentennial IKESs are beautiful with shiny fine luster but don't necessarily have silver Check the rim and check the weight to be sure (2457 gms)

Would like to send pictures of coin but don’t know how?

What if I have a 1776,1976 S mint, bicentennial, Eisenhower but not silver
Comment from : @SusanCox-re4kd

Mine has an e on the back does that mean something
Comment from : @CSCS20

If it's clad it's 20 silver on the outer layers, S for the san Fransisco mint only made so many at 40 silver, none are 100 silver
Comment from : @bhight100

Dang This told me my baggie of Ike’s, Kennedy’s, and Anthony’s, aren’t silver 😅
Comment from : @LoneWolf-kz5bo

I like Ike's, I have a bunch of them only a handful of silver Ike's a few proofs and a whole book of regular business strikes I gave my browns away as gifts Might regret that later
Comment from : @kylethecaregiver4050

So why are people selling these for $1,200 and $1,300 on Ebay???? Are they trying to scam people??
Comment from : @lorenlal

Mine has the blue chip
Comment from : @craigmclintock3369

I have a 1971 S Eisenhower silver dollar, 1972, 1973, and some other Eisenhower dollars with the S mint mark but they aren’t silverare they worth anything?
Comment from : @diverdan1941

around here mid west the regular Eisenhower's are selling for $150- $4 brI'm a 1971 bday the silver ones are going for about $12 each on ebay
Comment from : @tomkeller7644

I have two of these 1976 s proof And i was looking at them the other day and noticed one has a mint mark in a slightly different spot than the other And they are both pretty much perfect conditionbrBut one has almost solid silver edge but a hint of copper is showing but not like a Consistent copper ring like a usual clad would brYou think i should send them to be graded?
Comment from : @jareda3106

But with Nickel being worth as much as it is right now, (March 2022), wouldn’t the Nickel add value to the clads?
Comment from : @MartinD9999

The none silver "S" is why I just leave these alone To me I just dont want any in my stack Someday i might drop dead and my kids, they have no idea on any of this, no need to torture them while they try to sell or divide my stack
Comment from : @stevewoods8116

So the paperwork that you flashed briefly from the blue envelope, says its 40 silverbrIs that right?brAre any Ikes 90 silver?brLike pre 1965?br(Did they make Ikes before 1965?)
Comment from : @DesignerVIsuals

Glad you tossed in the dates that were silver also thats pretty important The us proof set that they came in from 1971 to 78 that had all the coins also have the s mint mark and are not silver
Comment from : @tom_morgandealer_pgh1648

As an Englishman, it's interesting to learn about the 'Ike' dollar To me he was a man of top calibre like Lincoln I have a genuine badge of the Supreme Headquarters of Allied Powers in Europe made by Drago, Paris The emblem on the green enamel shield shape badge was designed by Ike and SHAPE is still in existence today For me the badge is priceless It's a great pity Ike isn't alive today There would be a simple peaceful solution to the Ukraine crisis Thanks for the video
Comment from : @martynrawlins8050

Its definitely not true that if there's an S mint mark, that its silver So you could be fooled if you go by that way of thinking for sure
Comment from : @thatolddragon5560

A good thing to remember, silver Ike's are all S mint marked but not all S mint marked Ike's are silver That's a saying I heard a long time ago Plus all you have to do is look at the edge, its as simple as that man
Comment from : @thatolddragon5560

In 1975/1976 They Made Both Clad And Silver Versions !!!!
Comment from : @steelersjourney11111

Well done video SD! Eisenhowers always confused me as to the materials they used year to year I'm more of a 90 fan anyway :-)
Comment from : @coctailer

My Mom bought me that same proof Ike like 10 years ago😂, neat coin
Comment from : @SilverBro96

Comment from : @mikehernandez264

Comment from : @ronschneider1870

Why isn't it worth 40 of spot?
Comment from : @thorerlingiversen5459

Nice info Thanks for sharing and take care ✌️
Comment from : @ClaytonCountyHistoryHound

I was hoping you were going to show the bicentennial coin set from the mint
Comment from : @markroberts9577

I literally have a Home Depot bucket full of Ike dollars I got most for face value and the ones I paid for had a 10 cents premium Should I keep or get rid of them? There are probably over two thousand of them
Comment from : @jameycollins725

Eisenhower was also president when the US first got involved in Vietnam taking over from the French in 1954 when they had just been defeated in the Battle of Dien Bien Phu, by Ho Chi Minh and the Viet Minh
Comment from : @goldmaple5290

Eisenhower was president also when the US developed the hydrogen bomb, 100 times more powerful than the atomic bomb thrown on Nagasaki and Hiroshima He was instrumental in passing legislation disegregating schools in Brown v The Board of Education, a landmark US Supreme Court case

Easiest way: see edge
Comment from : @별님-i2x

I do have some Ike dollars but I doubt any of them are silver I was left a couple of Ikes by my uncle from India We don't see them in coin shops here in Canada I don't think they are too popular as they are big and weighty coins
Comment from : @goldmaple5290

This video was very educational I did not know much about Ike dollars, all I knew was that the 40 silver coins came in blue and brown packaging Now, I know that silver Ikes have the S mint mark, were minted in certain years, and the edge will be more shiny that marked with a reddish tinge Thanks, Silver Dragons
Comment from : @goldmaple5290

The bicentennial with two dates were for 1975 and 1976 There is no 1975 date only Ike dollar Also the 1776-1976 bicentennial did have type 1 and 2
Comment from : @Prospector-tr6cj

Well the only way I know my '71 proof Ike dollar is 40 silver is it's graded PCGS PR69 so I'll have to take their word for it
Comment from : @patrickmurphy8222

My favorite coin Good video Always have a clad one with me fun to flip
Comment from : @Oldwheeler1889

How much silver does a 1971 or 1972-s proof Ike dollar have in it, compared to the regular Ike dollar with an s mint mark?
Comment from : @michaelrobertson7397

Copper/nickel Ike’s are lighter than Silver Ike‘s(the weight)!
Comment from : @PinoySilverStacker

Just curious if the Kenedy half dollars would have the s mint mark also to tell if they are silver?
Comment from : @MrMymusic0717

Comment from : @shibui99

I’m shocked that these coins, being the size that they are, are only 40 silver
Comment from : @Moon-magic109

Comment from : @RDJL559

Thank u
Comment from : @airsoftiam7362

Just for the record, all the silver Ike dollars were S mint marked, but not all the S mint marked Ike Dollars contain silver In certain years they did produce some clad Ike dollars at the San Francisco mint along side the silver versions

Comment from : @silversurfer3202

Comment from : @leap7in

The fact that there are any 'silver dollars' made out of anything but silver is grotesque and indicative of a sick and dying society
