Since I'm not a commemorative guy, I thought everyone here could help. I'm looking to fill the Commemorative 1983-Date slot in my 7070. I'd like something 90% silver. Proof/Unc? Could go either way. Maybe something below the median in mintage, but that's not a deal breaker. So far, I kind of like a Bald Eagle one I've seen, as well as a US Marines one. Would like to keep things around $50ish or less. What do you think? Any recommendations? Thanks.

Well my favorite commemorative half is the 1986 Ellis Island half. Also I think most of the half's are clad after the 1982 Washington silver half.

OK, I made that decision quickly. Went with a 2005 P Marines Proof for $33. Not sure if that's a good price. It's a tribute to dad anyway.

Seems like you got a good deal to me. I went with the same one for my 7070. I think it's a great coin, and fitting for you.

That's why I love the 7070. Picked lots of modern coins with dates of my families birth years. For the Modern Comm slot, picked the IKE Commemorative since I served onboard the USS EISENHOWER.

There are so many to choose from that you can really personalize your choice. For me, it is the 2004 Lewis and Clark Bicentennial. I live in St Louis which was the departure point for the expedition and where William Clark settled afterward. My wife also purchased it for me so if I replaced it, she would probably throw it at me

I have been leaning towards the 1990 Eisenhower Commemorative Dollar. I already have one in my 1990 Prestige Set. Also, most know I am a huge Eisenhower dollar fan, so it would be a good fit.

But I am also holding out hope for a Reagan Commemorative in 2013.
