peaches2165 Valued Member United States 65 Posts	Posted 08/19/2017 11:11 am Hi, I have a good number of silver dollars that are dated 1975 and up. Since these don't have silver content are they worth more than $1. Also I have quite a few bicentennial Eisenhower dollars. Thanks, Nancy Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/19/2017 11:40 am A couple of points. In 1975 they didn't make an Eisenhower dollars. The 1776-1976 dollars were made during the 1975-1976 years as Bi-Centennial dollars. (1975 Reverse was the type 1. 1976 were the Type 2, no premium for this as they were made all both years) There were some silver clad ones that year. A bit of premium for the silver clad type 1 & 2. (silver content). The circulated 1971-1978 dollars are just worth one dollar. So unless they are BU, they probably won't have a premium for them. If the coin is damaged, then just face value. Hope this helps. Report this Post to the Staff

I do not mean this as a challenging or confrontational question. I am simply curious about how different people use and define the term BU (brilliant uncirculated). Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74770 Posts	Posted 08/20/2017 10:50 am Dd27, a coin with no spots (fingerprints). Very shiny, lots of mint luster and not many bag marks. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
dd27 Pillar of the Community United States 666 Posts	Posted 08/20/2017 12:42 pm Thanks Errers and Varietys! One reason I ask is that I just wrote up a section on the topic for a Wikipedia article and want to make sure I am on target.
