The ‘Secret’ Silver Dollars from San Francisco

Did you know...These silver Eisenhower Dollars were not included in the US Mint Proof & Uncirculated Set!

The special release Eisenhower dollar presented to the former First Lady was a San Francisco Mint Silver Proof issue…making it one of the sought after “Secret Eisenhower Dollars”. The San Francisco Mint struck two coins in 1971, an Uncirculated version (known as the “blue pack”—because of its iconic blue packaging) and a Proof version (known as a “brown pack”).

Both versions of the coin were special silver issues with neither being released into circulation, making them a collector’s dream! These secret sets were produced from 1971-1974 and are the KEY pieces to any Eisenhower Dollar Collection.

Was it meant to be a real "secret"? Probably not, but very few know that they exist at all, making them the essential “Secret Collector’s Coin” to own! The best part is that while the story is really cool, it is the mintage figures that back up this Eisenhower Dollar’s status among collectors... less than 3% of all first year coins were San Francisco Mint Silvers!
