History:
The Blue Ike holds a significant place in numismatic history.
Production Period — The “Blue Ikes” were minted between 1971 and 1974, marking the first and last 40% silver dollars in U.S. history.
Collector's Item — Unlike regular coins, “Blue Ikes” were sold individually to collectors, packaged in distinctive blue holders.
Design Features — The obverse features Dwight D. Eisenhower, the 34th President of the United States, symbolizing his legacy.
Limited Release — Only a limited number of these coins were produced, contributing to their rarity and value among collectors.
I have 3 unopened, sealed “Blue Ikes” dated 1971 (with original blue envelope packaging), 1972 and 1974. Each of these uncirculated Eisenhower Silver Dollars were struck at the San Francisco Mint and carried the “S” mint mark; each package also has the blue “Eisenhower chip”.
Asking $30 for the 1971 with the original blue envelope packaging, and $20 each for the 1972 and 1974.
