Solid silver? No. The silver clad Eisenhower dollars are all 40% silver. But for 1973 not all S mintmarked coins are 40% silver. The San Francisco Mint did strike copper-nickel proof coins that were included in the proof sets for 1973. The 40% silver coins were struck as proof & uncirculated but were sold separately, so 3 different S mintmarked coins were struck in 1973.
1973s 40% Silver Proofs are valued from $10.00-$25.00 depending on grade.
The copper-nickel coins weigh 22.68 grams. The 40% silver coins weigh 24.59 grams.

None of the Eisenhower's released for circulation have silver. For 1971 & 1972 only, all S mint marked coins are 40% silver. From 1973 to 1976 the S mint marked coins in the standard proof sets are clad coins, the 40% silver Ike's were sold separately but they were included in the bicentennial 3-piece silver sets. No silver Ike's were struck in 1977 or 1978.
None at all. No Eisenhower Dollars that were issued for circulation (1971-1978) contain silver.
It's still worth one dollar.
