where is the s mint mark on eisenhower silver dollars

[HarleyLynn]

Hello there! That's a great question for any collector of Eisenhower dollars.

To find the 'S' mint mark on an Eisenhower silver dollar, you'll need to look at the obverse, or the "heads" side of the coin. The mint mark is located directly below the portrait of President Dwight D. Eisenhower's neck and just above the date.

This 'S' signifies that the coin was struck at the San Francisco Mint. These versions are special because they were produced for collectors and are composed of 40% silver, unlike the copper-nickel clad Eisenhower dollars that were made for general circulation at the Philadelphia and Denver mints.
