1971-1978 40% Silver & Clad Eisenhower Dollar Set EISENHOWER IKE DOLLARS Gem

Description: If This Set Doesn’t Make You “Like Ike,” Nothing Will! Many of us have fond memories of from our childhood of a visiting relative who miraculously produced a silver dollar from behind our ears. More often than not, this was an Eisenhower Dollar. Back then, those big dollar coins had some serious purchasing power for kids—comic books were 15 cents in 1971, candy bars and baseball card packs each cost 10 cents, and you could probably get a bottle of soda pop for less than 25 cents. With shiny “Ike” Dollars in our pockets, we felt like we were rich! The Last Of The Large-Sized Dollars It’s been 40 years since the last Ike Dollars rolled off the presses at the U.S. Mint. The last of the large-sized dollar coins, many Ike Dollars struck from 1971-1978 can command high prices. Finding one or two of these beauties todays is tough enough let alone building a complete set. But thanks to status and contacts within the coin world, I’ve managed to assemble nearly 100 complete 26-coin Ike Dollar sets – and I’m making them available at a fraction of what they are being offer for elsewhere! A Tribute To One Of America’s Greatest Presidents And One Of The Country’s Greatest Achievements The vivid memories of these big coins are one of the reasons many people started collecting coins in the first place. For people of that generation, it is rightly regarded as the Greatest American Silver Dollar Collection.” On the obverse is the bust of Dwight David Eisenhower—the nation’s 34th President and a 5-star general in the United States Army who served as the Supreme Allied Commander of Allied forced in Europe during World War II. The coin’s reverse is the same design as that from the mission insignia of the Apollo 11 mission that landed the first men on the moon. These two designs together pay tribute to one of America’s greatest presidents and one of the country’s greatest achievements all on one coin! When Eisenhower was considering a run for the Presidency in 1951, people who wanted him to run coined the phrase “I Like Ike” as a symbol of their hopes. The slogan stuck and helped propel Eisenhower to The White House. Now you, too, can like Ike with this incredible complete set of Ike Dollars.
