1776-1976 Bicentennial Eisenhower Dollar

This is a United States Eisenhower Dollar, specifically the Bicentennial commemorative issue minted in 1776-1976. The coin features the left-facing profile of Dwight D. Eisenhower, the 34th President of the United States. It is composed of a copper-nickel clad material, though silver-clad versions were also produced for collectors. The obverse displays the dual date '1776-1976' at the bottom, the word 'LIBERTY' arched across the top, and the motto 'IN GOD WE TRUST' positioned to the left of the neck. This specific specimen lacks a visible mint mark, indicating it was likely struck at the Philadelphia Mint. In terms of condition, the coin shows signs of circulation with a significant amount of light surface scratching and contact marks (bag marks) scattered across the fields and Eisenhower's cheek. There are small carbon spots or dark blemishes visible near the center and the lower edge. The luster appears somewhat muted, suggesting it is in a circulated or low Uncirculated (AU/MS-60) state. The rim shows minor evidence of wear but remains largely intact. Measuring 38.1 mm in diameter, this large-format coin represents the final type of 'large' dollar coin issued for general commerce in the United States before the downsizing to the Susan B. Anthony dollar in 1979.
