After 1978, the U.S. Mint transitioned to the smaller Susan B. Anthony dollar, making these impressive coins the end of a tradition dating back to the earliest days of American coinage. Collectors value complete P\u0026amp;D sets as they represent both major mint facilities' output for this historic final year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn Brilliant Uncirculated condition, these coins showcase the full detail and luster intended by the mint's engravers. The Eisenhower Dollar series remains highly collectible due to its short production run (1971-1978), historical significance honoring both a beloved president and the space program, and impressive size that makes a statement in any collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eImages shown are stock photos representative of the coins you will receive.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"US Mint","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51026748834074,"sku":"IKE_UNC_1978PDSET","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0957\/0612\/0474\/files\/IKE_UNC_1978PDSET-2.jpg?v=1760649823","url":"https:\/\/smyrnacoin.com\/products\/1978-pd-eisenhower-dollar-2-coin-set-brilliant-uncirculated","provider":"Smyrnacoin.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
