A 1972 Eisenhower dollar with a "D" mint mark, indicating it was produced at the Denver Mint, is not a silver coin. This is a common point of confusion for this series. The 1972-D dollars were struck for general circulation and are composed of a copper-nickel clad composition, containing no silver.
Because they are common and not made of precious metal, a circulated 1972-D Eisenhower dollar is typically worth only its face value of one dollar. Examples in pristine, uncirculated condition may be worth more to collectors, generally in the range of $3 to $8, with professionally graded, high-quality specimens commanding higher prices.
The only 1972 Eisenhower dollars that contain silver are those with an "S" mint mark from the San Francisco Mint. These were specifically created for collectors and were not intended for circulation. They are composed of 40% silver and their value is primarily based on their silver content, which fluctuates with the market, plus a small collector's premium.
The provided context from the search results was not sufficient to provide these specific values, as it did not contain the body of the article on the topic.
