1972-S EISENHOWER UNCIRCULATED SILVER DOLLAR. There were two types of Silver Ikes released: Blue and Brown. All Silver Ikes were minted at the San Francisco Mint and have an 'S' mintmark on the obverse. There are two major versions of the 1972-S Eisenhower Dollar - both of them have a silver-clad composition with a 40% silver content. The common version is the 1972-S Brilliant Uncirculated silver Eisenhower Dollar (as depicted above) which came in the blue pack/envelope with a blue seal ("Blue Ikes").These were special mint condition coins sold to collectors. When these Silver Dollars were first released, they were meant to commemorate the recently deceased President Eisenhower and legislation to create them was signed into effect by President Richard Nixon.CoinHighlights: Contains .3161 oz. of Silver. Obverse: Features a striking profile of General/President Dwight David Eisenhower facing left with the legend of "LIBERTY" above his head. Underneath his chin is the motto "IN GOD WE TRUST" with the date at the base of his profile. Reverse: Reflects the design of the Apollo XI's insignia. Depicted is an eagle flying over the surface of the moon with an olive branch firmly grasped in his claws with a small Earth turned so that North America can be seen. Thirteen stars surround the eagle's flight.
