Ike Silver dollar is the most underappreciated and under Valued US Silver/Clad Dollar $$. What shame, the Ike has such a beautiful display of US History (One of the greatest Generals in US History & the 11 Apollo Lunar landing). They are Soo beautiful I will never sell mine small collection. Great Video 🙂🙂
i just want to say Dan is a great person to deal with! awesome shop and very trustworthy. I bought and sold from them and he is always prompt to answer emails.
I learn something new with each of your videos. I was completely in the dark about the varieties in this series. Years ago I bought what I thought was going to be 100 silver dollars, but when I actually saw them it was two Morgan's, and 98 circulated Ike's. I paid for the Morgan's, and face for the rest. Afterwards every time I ate out, or had coffee with friends I'd always leave a couple Ike dollars. A lot of servers had no idea what they were. They were almost always amazed. Hopefully I planted a small seed to interest a few of them in collecting.
Linda Nelson I buy clad Ikes and put them back into circulation just like you. Had a couple cashiers claim they weren’t money. Also use my silver Ikes as poker chips when playing cards with my kids.
Ike's are some of my favorite b/c when I was a kid, I dreamed of the days when people could get this large of a coin. then in 71 they started making a large coin again. I used to love getting these at the bank. As always, people did not want a dollar coin for daily commerce, so they did not circulate well. But they are a fun coin. personally, and ironic, my favorites are the Daniel Carr overstirkes you can get on eBay every once in awhile. As a kid I dreamed I found a 1975 Ike dollar, and now I own an overstrike that is as close to the real deal as you could get.
Thank you! I had never heard of the website, "The Ike Group," before. I was collecting, Morgans, Mercury Dimes, some Morgans, Peace, and then years ago I found these Eisenhower Dollars, and started collecting several "Brown Ikes." Now, I know you can get technical like you are showing to make money, yet to me this is one of the most beautiful coins there is at a reasonable price. To other collectors, if you have no Eisenhower Dollars, then buy a few Brown Ikes, and see what you think.
Excellent overview of Ikes. They were my first collectable coins as a kid, especially loved them since I didn't grow up in America. This brings me back to hours of fun when in hanabada days(young ’un) I learned about the known varieties then and followed discoveries over the years. Makes getting older sort of worthwhile:LOL! Time maybe to dig out the old Ikes and get them a good new hanabada home. Another great video.
My late father-in-law had a couple 1971-D Ikes. I think he got them in 1971 as a novelty as soon as they were available, because only the earliest 1971-Ds included that reverse. I took a look at them a couple months ago, and they were both the Friendly Eagle variety. Both pretty good looking with clean fields.
The Eisenhower and the American eagle are two coins I am interested in and would like to collect...and Benjamin also. What is the difference between the walking liberty and the American Eagle? I can look it up... I just was thinking about all the information in this video… You sure know a lot of stuff in your head, Daniel! You’re very much appreciated ❤️
Wow another amazing super great video info and analysis from absolutely the best channel on utube. its fantastic how you go into such great detail. wish your buisseness and your channel all the best thank. you .keep the videos coming there must watch.
I found the listing, but without it being graded and attributed there's no real value here. I would talk to them at the Ike group forum on your options. No dealer is going to have a value for you.
I have a 1971 profe coin D series I believe from what I've found there are only 3 known about the one sold went for 263000 dollars in auction where can I have it appraised online that reputable and why isnt it in your top 10???
Ikes have definitely caught my interest. Unlike Morgans, Peace Dollars and other older types, collecting the more modern Ike Dollar (the last big hefty U.S. dollar that was in general circulation) seems to be within grasp for an average guy with modest means. I can imagine the wonder that Ikes will generate on the faces of those that come a couple of generations from now. Thanks for the referenced resources!
Ikes were never loved by the public. Big heavy coins with no intrinsic silver value. But, the silver versions are great. I love the proof Ikes they are a coin with some eye appeal. At least there was some relief on these coins still. Coins are bacially line art today, no sculpture left in them. Ikes may never get much respect, but it's a cheap series to start a kid on. It;s something they can achieve collecting the set, they can do it on a budget, and while they don't circulate, you can STILL get them at the banks for face value. I like 'em, but they aren't going to be much for collector value for some time to come.
I cherry picked clad Ikes and sent them to ANACS for cheap holders. I got returned, a 71 MS66 and a 73-D MS66. Im thinking of sending them for PCGS crossover
Can you tell me if my coins are worth anything if I can send a photo I have a set with all coins quarter, dollar, half dollar, quarter, dime and penny. Thank you, Nicole
Daniel after tomorrow's purchases. I will not be buying for a couple weeks. I am dumping money into my dream car currently. And I'd like to get it finished cause it's close. So the next purchase will most likely be at your shop
I couldn't sell an Ike to any of my customers if my life counted on it. I have tried to promote them to customers for years and they all think their junk. What a shame.
I also have a question about busting coins out of the brown boxes. I purchased a brown Ike, proof silver, in the brown box, but the cardboard box was damaged. I busted the coin out and it's beautiful. Does it really matter if the coin is still in the brown box, especially if the box is in bad shape?
I have an autographed Hollywood actress photograph (Anne Francis) dating to the 1950s made out to Eisenhower hanging in my office. She was in The Forbidden Planet (1956) with Robbie the Robot. LOL I don't have any Eisenhower dollars.
I'm fairly new to collecting. I purchased a bi-centennial silver proof Ike and was perplexed that the reeded edge had a hint of copper color, like a clad. Yet, it weighed the same as a 1971 proof silver S that I have which I know for a fact is silver. Is that common to find a '76 silver proof with a hint of copper on the edge? I'm really perplexed by this coin.
I have one of the 1976 p eisenhower type. 2 brilliant uncirculated it's gold in color is it really worth 450,000 I bout it in coin collectors estate sale at auction in a collection of coins that was one of them
I have 3 of the brown box proof S 71's, but trying to look closely at the details with a camera, it just reflects the camera and I can't figure out how to photograph them without the case reflection or camera reflection. :-( to see any possible DDO detail. Kind of frustrating.
Today I have actually found a 1971 s ike dollar 40% silver business strike at a bank. It's one of only 6million minted. I couldn't believe someone just turned that into a bank.
@@CoinHELPu well it is silver, business strike means it's not a proof mirror finish. They were struck using 40% silver planchettes. About 4 million proofs and 6 million in business strike. I understand the confusion. I was surprised when I found it amount 15 other ike dollars. The coin you showed in the video the s/s 1971 silver Ike is the same coin I've got. Except mine doesn't have a repunched mintmark. Also its a dollar coin, not a half dollar. You may be confused on that. The halves stopped in 1970 but no Ike dollar was minted in 1970 and certainly none for circulation. The one I have most definitely came out of a set of coins or a blue Ike package.
@@CoinHELPu yeah I understand. I also found two 40% halves, a 1967 and a 1969 D half. Sure would be nice to find a 1970 half but I highly doubt that will happen. I'm getting about $50 more in halves tomorrow, I'm hoping for some 90%, cause you can't give those %40 away. No one ever bids on them at eBay. I've sold %40 Kennedy's for less than spot value.
Great video. I do have a question though: What is the difference between 1971-S Silver proof and 1971-S Type 1 Reverse proof as listed on the PCGS Coin Facts? Is the Type 1 Reverse a Clad proof? Thanks.
I have a uncirculated authenticated 1976-D eisenhower bicentennial dollar so what would be the value on a uncirculated coin, since I think it is ms67+ and need to know exactly what I have in my collection???
4:18 4:18 4:18 Hello Daniel, I have the set of three uncirculated in the red envelope, my Ike dollar I weighed, is 24. 6 grams on the reverse of it is the block lettering type 1 and on the obverse is the thin lettering type 2 , the half dollar of the set weighed 12.3grams, and my quarter of the set weighs 6.5 g, now with my research my set is only supposed to be 40% silver and thin lettering on the reverse which is type 2, so do I have something that could be valuable,if you could please help me, and also they are in pretty good shape, I've checked them under scope and with a loop,I have learned a lot from you in the past this has been bugging me for a long time, since I am retired now, I have some time to sit down and go over my coins, if you could help me I would appreciate it, and thanks for all your help in the past
I have a bunch of Ike dollars I bought from an old drug dealer. Looks like some of the valuable ones you speak of. They are in a black sleeve though not what you showed in your video.
Thanks for making this video, I just started filling the Ike set, this helps me keep an eye out for some. Been a long time viewer I always appreciate your videos!
How would it happen that there is only one proof coin missing the S mint mark. Seems strange to me .1976 no S type two silver.I imagine many have tried to get their finest file out to try to fool pcgs/ngc.Thanks again .
1972 D clad i found doubling in every letter on the reverse. I bought 10 1971 D eisenhowers at the bank and found doubling in several letters on obverse and reverse are doubled. Do these coins been recongized as a variety?
