Hi,
Recently I stumbled across a silver dollar. As I was searching to see if it contained silver, I discovered I couldn't find the exact description of my coin!! From what I can tell, its a type 2 1976 P dollar with no S. This is the best I can come up with, but after some quick research only one like this has been know to exist! Is it too good to be true? I will attach pictures. My coin clearly has no "S" , and has type 2 letters. The only part I wonder about is that the sides are copper color, which leads me to believe it may not contain silver.Thank you for taking the time to read this! I look forward to hearing your response.

Unfortunately, with the color on the edge you've got a clad Philadelphia mint dollar. No silver. 113 million were made of the type 2 variety.

in 1976 Philadelphia mint did not put a "P" mint mark on coins.

The coin posted is a circulated 1976 type two Philadelphia dollar

Correct. This is by far the most common Eisenhower dollar variety minted. Your coin is worth face value only. I assume the one-of-a-kind rarity you were referring to is the 1976 "No S" silver proof Eisenhower dollar. Yeah, that's one of my dream coins.

Every Ike is worth hanging on to, in my opinion.
