Coin Series: Eisenhower (Ike) Dollars

Ike Dollars are an interesting set of coins.  The last of the large dollars, the series only ran from 1971 to 1978.  The 32 coin set consists of 16 business strike clad coins, 6 clad proofs, 5 40% silver business strike, and 5 40% silver proof coins.  1971 P&D Ikes and 1972 P&D Ikes were only available in rolls and bags while the 1973 coins were issues in mint sets only.  1971 -1974S business strike silver coins were issued seal in plastic in a blue envelope while the silver proof from those years were in a hard plastic case that came in a brown box. In 1976, the U.S Mint issues 2 bicentennial 40% silver sets, one uncirculated and the other proof.  These came with an Ike dollar, Kennedy Half, and Washington quarter.  The series ended in 1978 to make way for the Susan B. Anthony small dollar.
