The 1971-S Eisenhower Dollar represents the inaugural year of the iconic series, struck in silver at the San Francisco Mint renowned for its proof production. Boasting a mintage of 6,868,530, this particular coin, graded PR69CAM by PCGS, is among the finest survivors with a stellar contrast between frosted devices and mirror-like fields. The coin's reverse, featuring Frank Gasparro's majestic eagle landing on the moon, captures the spirit of the Apollo missions and adds historical allure. With only a small fraction achieving similar grades, its PR69CAM status makes it a sought-after specimen for those aiming to complete a high-grade proof set. The appeal of this coin is further accentuated by the impeccable strike and pristine surfaces, offering both historical significance and aesthetic beauty.
