Bullion Exchanges is pleased to offer the 1971–1976-S Proof Eisenhower Dollar 40% Silver (Impaired Proof, Random Year)—a collectible U.S. coin that blends historic design with silver content at a budget-friendly price. Struck by the San Francisco Mint, each coin contains .400 silver and was originally produced in Proof quality, though now exhibits light wear, handling, or storage marks that categorize it as Impaired Proof. Despite these signs of age, the coin still offers strong detail, sharp design elements, and silver value.

These large-format dollars honor President Dwight D. Eisenhower and, from 1971 to 1974, feature a reverse design inspired by the Apollo 11 Moon landing. In 1975 and 1976, a special Bicentennial edition was issued, showcasing the Liberty Bell and the moon, commemorating the United States' 200th anniversary. Each coin bears the “S” mintmark indicating its origin at the San Francisco Mint and retains its silver content, making it ideal for entry-level collectors and silver investors alike.
