1976 S Eisenhower Proof Type-1 Dollar Choice Uncirculated 1 PR-68 US Mint

Description

Outstanding coin deep strike with a mirror like finish. Issued in conjunction with the Bicentennial coinage from 1976. Dollar carries 2 dates 1776 1976. Only coin produced by mint which carried the next year’s date. These coins were produced in 1975 but carry the 1976 date. The Bicentennial Commission at that time determined that the run up to the Bicentennial would be so great that the US Mint would not have ample time to produce coins for the Bicentennial so the Eisenhower Dollar the Kennedy Half and the Washington quarter minted in 1975 all were to carry the dual date 1776 1976 date. The Type 1 Ike dollars here have been hand picked for quality and eye appeal. Eisenhowers were the first dollar coins issued by the Mint since the Peace dollar series ended in 1935
