Description: In 1969, President Dwight Eisenhower died not long after Apollo 11 landed on the Moon, and a coin was soon authorized to commemorate both events. After the five-year ban on dollar coin production expired, the new cupro-nickel dollar was selected and released to the public in 1971. Some were struck specially for collectors at the San Francisco Mint in the same 40% silver cladding as used in the earlier half dollars. Pale golden-gray patina accents the surfaces of this most-attractive top-pop Gem. This is the first year of issue and the popular rebirth of the dollar sized coin. A total of 47,799,000 pieces were struck that year, and this example fits at the bottom of the Condition Census at PCGS. Thus, it is the perfect choice for any PCGS Set Registry collector and would make a bold statement when added to any collection as the first year of issue for this series.
