Eisenhower 1972 S Type 2 In Mint Case

Okay, the more I look at it the more flaws I see, like the small pit between the I and the B. How about MS-65? MS-63?

First off,
What you have is a 40% silver proof. It's a cool coin, but '70s proofs were produced by the millions and are extremely common coins in most grades. It's tough to grade through plastic and I'm not a great grader to begin with, but what I can say is that this isn't extraordinary for the type. A PR70 should have no visible flaws under 10x magnification, which is clearly not the case here, but PR67 is a pretty common grade and not worth too much.
PCGS CoinFacts gives information about population and price: https://www.PCGS.com/coinfacts/coin...-silver/7429
Note that the prices there are rough guidelines for professionally graded coins, so the actual value of a coin like this is lower. In short, it's a lot closer to $10 than $10,000.
As for the $10,000 figure you mentioned, that's probably just the asking price. People can ask whatever they want on ebay, but it doesn't say anything about the coin's value unless it sells.

Thanks for sharing (and for posting clear pictures of both sides without being asked )! Feel free to post any other questions about your collection.

Something else to understand is that I believe ALL of the proof 72 S coins are type II or var 2 reverse (it was the normal rev for the proof coins). The rare coin is the 72 Philadelphia coin with the type 2 rev.
