Collectible coins are items valued by numismatists for their historical significance, rarity, condition, and demand. The Eisenhower Dollar, issued by the United States from 1971 to 1978, features President Dwight D. Eisenhower on the obverse and an image of the Moon in relation to the Apollo 11 mission on the reverse. The 1978 Denver Mint version of the Eisenhower Dollar, while not particularly rare, is sought by collectors, especially in uncirculated condition.
