Description
A genuine 1974 D Eisenhower Dollar IKE Coin, graded and certified MS 66 by NGC. Copper-Nickel Clad composition. The Big Sky Hoard was discovered in 2011, located in the basement vault of the Federal Reserve Bank in Helena, Montana, where it had been stored in the 1970s. The hoard held 223,000 Eisenhower dollars preserved in their original mint-sewn bags for more than three decades. The coins were originally purchased directly from the Denver Mint by a family in Montana. Thanks to their early storage, they had avoided circulation entirely, ensuring their pristine condition.
This large dollar coin depicts 34th President Dwight D. Eisenhower, with LIBERTY above and the date below. Next to the portrait is the motto IN GOD WE TRUST. Adapted from the Apollo 11 mission patch, the reverse shows an eagle landing on the moon's surface, with the earth and E PLURIBUS UNUM above. Encircling the design are UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and ONE DOLLAR.
