Eisenhower Bicentennial Dollar Appraisal

1976 Bicentennial Eisenhower Dollar (Obverse)

This item is the obverse side of a 1976 Bicentennial Eisenhower Dollar coin. The coin is circular and appears to be made of a silver-colored metal, likely copper-nickel clad, typical for Eisenhower Dollars intended for circulation. The primary feature on this side is a prominent bust of President Dwight D. Eisenhower, facing left. His profile is well-defined, showing details of his head, ear, and facial features, including a slightly wrinkled forehead, indicating age. Above Eisenhower's head, along the top rim of the coin, the word 'LIBERTY' is inscribed in capital letters. Below his chin, to the left, the motto 'IN GOD WE TRUST' is visible, stacked in two lines. The year '1976' is clearly stamped at the bottom center of the coin, indicating its mintage during the United States Bicentennial celebration. The coin exhibits a circulated condition, with some noticeable wear across the high points of Eisenhower's portrait, particularly on the highest relief areas. There are no obvious deep scratches, dents, or significant damage, suggesting average circulation wear. The surface shows a light, even toning that gives it a slightly muted silver-gray appearance, rather than a bright, freshly minted luster. There are no discernible mint marks visible in this image; these are typically found to the right of Eisenhower's neck on these coins. The craftsmanship appears consistent with standard U.S. Mint production.
