In 1969, Eisenhower passed just in time for a new dollar to be minted. Without much disagreement, the general and late president became the face of the new dollar. All good things come to an end and this was definitely the case in 1965. Due to an extreme increase in silver bullion prices, the US Mint was required to alter the metals that went into their coins. Instead of 90% silver, all clad coins were given a copper-nickel clad combination and only collectible coins contained 40% silver. The 1971-S Eisenhower Dollar Roll consists of 20 coins made from 40% silver and are in excellent brilliant uncirculated condition. Minted at the San Francisco Mint, the mecca of perfectly struck coins, the 1971-S Eisenhower dollar proudly wears the "S" mint-mark.
