I have a few 1776-1976 Silver Dollars and the one's with S mint mark
weigh 24.5 grams and the others around 22.5 (P&D) Is there a reason?

You know where there are Eisenhower dollars being discussed, I am all over it! Actually, I am surprised that Stewart did not be me to it though!  |

Another question regarding IKE's - for common dates - what is an expected price to pay above face value? I ask because I saw a guy at a flea market with a tub of them for $1.75 each. I don't know much about them, so I didn't mess with 'em.

$1.75 is probably around average. I have seen the "bargain bins" at coin shows run anywhere from face to $2 each.

I can sell them for 1.20 a piece but only in 1000 dollar lots.
