A One Dollar coin was added to the US Mint Proof Set in 1973, making it the first time since 1904 that a One Dollar coin was part of the set. It was the copper-nickel-clad version of the Eisenhower Dollar. This also made it a 6 coin set. While sales of the sets did fall off a bit from the 1972 levels, the US Mint still managed to sell 2,760,339 sets in 1973. This set was made by the US Mint in San Francisco. The Proof finish on these coins enhances their beauty. Right now, the 1973 US Mint Proof Set is available for purchase from Silver.com.

Coin Highlights:

  • Shipped in a hard plastic case with an outer box!
  • Six 1973 coins from the US Mint are included!
  • Each coin contains its respective face value in US dollars.
  • Each denomination has its own obverse and reverse design.
  • A total of 2,760,339 proof sets were issued for 1973.
  • Proof specimens.
  • Please keep in mid the hard plastic case remains in good overall condition, as do the coins inside, but some sets may be missing elements of the outer shipping materials.

The obverse and the reverse of the Eisenhower Dollar were both designed by Frank Gasparro, the US Mint’s Chief Engraver.

In designing the obverse of the Eisenhower Dollar, Gasparro studied 30 pictures of the former President. In addition, he used a drawing he had actually done of the President in a parade. The influence of these pictures and drawings culminated in the left-facing bust of Dwight D. Eisenhower that appears on the coin.

In determining the reverse of the Eisenhower Dollar, Congress decided a tribute to the Apollo 11 space flight was appropriate since the space program had begun under Eisenhower’s administration. The design is based upon the Apollo 11 mission insignia, and features a bald eagle landing on the moon’s surface, carrying an olive branch. A depiction of the Earth is in the distant background.

Each Proof Set includes one each of the Lincoln Cent, Jefferson Nickel, Roosevelt Dime, Washington Quarter, Kennedy Half Dollar, and Eisenhower Dollar. This is the first year that a Dollar coin was included.

The coins are packaged in a two-piece clear plastic case. A red felt-covered paper insert was included that makes the beauty of the coins really pop! The clear plastic case is inserted into a black plastic frame that has a hinged flap that can be flipped over to display the coins.

Is my information secure?

We take data security very seriously. When you place an order with silver.com, your information is transmitted with the utmost SSL (secure socket layers) 256-bit protection. We also never have access to your credit/debit card details, as they are securely communicated directly to the payment processor (Authorize.net) and never retained by Silver.com. For this reason, we also don't process credit/debit card orders over the phone, as it is the least secure way to process those transactions.

In addition, all VISA and MasterCard orders undergo an additional step of user authentication - the respective Verified by VISA or MasterCard SecureCode programs. Upon completing checkout with a VISA or MasterCard credit/debit card, you may be promoted for additional details to confirm your identity and protect our customers against credit card fraud.

Finally, the data we do retain in our system, including but not limited to name, address, phone number, and order history, is never shared with or sold to any unrelated third-parties. Please review our Privacy Policy for full details on our data security measures.

Please note, the Silver.com website accepts orders 24/7/365, so you can always lock in live product prices and make purchases outside of business hours.

Do you charge sales tax?

We are required to collect sales tax in certain states. You can review your states sales tax policy here: https://www.silver.com/taxes. You should always consult with a tax adviser for specific advice in your area.

Where does your spot price come from?

We use a live, up-to-the-second spot price feed supplied by Xignite.com, a worldwide leader in the data supply market.

Are your products actually in stock?

Yes. We are one of the few bullion dealers in the industry who only deems products "in stock" when we have them on-hand and ready to ship immediately. In the instance of a presale item, we denote that the product is on presale and the estimated shipping date. While we make the best efforts to hit presale dates, the dates are only estimates, given we cannot control mint production issues and/or carrier dealyes.

Why are multiple prices listed?

We offer a 4% discount to "cash" paying customers - with paper check, bank wire, and bitcoin payments being defined as cash. On many products, we are also able to offer volume discounts to customers purchasing large quantities of the same item. All volume pricing is laid out in the chart on the product's description page, as well as in the cart.

When do I lock in my price?

All prices are locked in at the time of purchase. Credit/debit card, PayPal, BitCoin, Ethereum, and Ripple orders are paid at the time of checkout, while paper check and bank wire orders require a credit/debit card on file to lock in your pricing while we await your payment. Please note, paper check and bank wire orders will NOT result in a charge to your card - we simple maintain the card on file while we await full payment by your selected payment method.

Do you ship internationally?

We currently only ship to addresses in the United States, including APOs.
