1973 Eisenhower dollar value guide -- the mint-set-only rarity that never circulated, mintage, and current value.


Note: a full grade-by-grade breakdown for this coin is still being compiled.
1973 and its Denver companion (1973-D, mintage 2,000,000) are the two lowest-mintage business-strike Eisenhower dollars of the whole series -- roughly 2 million each -- because the Mint stopped releasing clad Ikes into circulation after public rejection in 1971-72. Both were sold only inside the 1973 Uncirculated Mint Set.
Despite the low mintage, typical Mint State examples remain affordable ($18-30) because so many survived untouched in original mint packaging -- real scarcity premium only shows up at gem grades (PCGS MS66+ examples have sold for $1,760-$7,640 at auction, 2016-2025).

Other dates and varieties in this series
Condition drives price more than any other factor on a coin like this — two examples of the same date can be worth very different amounts depending on wear and authentication.
The value table above is organized by grade for a reason — a coin's condition, not just its date, sets where it lands on that range. If you're not sure how to grade, a seller's photos and description should call it out.
A professionally graded (PCGS/NGC) example carries more certainty than a raw coin, and usually a small premium for it. Both are fine to buy — just factor grading into the price you're comparing.
Prices vary between individual sellers here, not one retailer's price list. Sort by price, check the seller's Metal Points and order history, and message the seller if photos don't show enough detail to grade confidently.
