With 40 % silver content and "Limited" availability (Blue Envelope and Ike Dollar in mint-cello), these should hold or increase their value in the future. A good, secure way to collect value- with silver values, plus collectible value in that there's no more being produced. Both value in silver and in rarity add to the collectibility of these "Last of the Big Silver Dollars" As new collectors come into the market, there's only a limited amount of these available. As a new collector or an established veteran collector, there's a value to these Blue Ikes.

All original government packaging and papers in like new condition. This is a special minted 40% silver Eisenhower Uncirculated BU Real Silver Dollar. These are becoming more valuable as time passes and also more expensive for a quality 1971-74 Eisenhower. At the time of release, you had to purchase these silver Eisenhower dollars because not one silver Eisenhower was intended or released to the public for circulation. Those were only copper nickel clad Eisenhower dollars. The difference between Blue and Brown Ike’s- Blue Ike’s arrived in a blue envelope. Blue Ike’s mean that it’s an Unc BU US Minted Silver Ike from 1971-1974. This is not the Silver Proof Eisenhower (these are called Brown Ike’s). Brown Ike’s or Proof Eisenhower Silver Dollars were shipped from the Mint in a Brown cardboard box with a red velvet like Frame Holder. They were actually much higher in price than the Blue Ike’s at the time of release. Now prices seem to run about the same for either the Uncirculated BU and the Proofs. Highly recommended for the right price. By The Way- Prices vary widely among both blue and brown Ike’s. Shop for the best price.Read full review
