Bicentennial Kennedy halves are extremely common and worth 50 cents. Gold-plating is done by a private company, NOT the U.S. Mint, so it doesn't add any real collector value. That said, they sell as novelties on eBay for upwards of $10.
George Washington was issued the very first Congressional Medal. It's in a vault at the Boston Public Library at Copley Square.
None of the Bicentennial Eisenhower dollars minted for circulation contain silver and all have the dual date of 1776/1976 and are face value only.
The U.S. Mint was not producing gold coins in 1976.
it's just a common Eisenhower not a commemorative coin and none of the bicentennial dollars made for general circulation have any silver or are worth more than face value. Only Proof and collectors coins sold from the US Mint are worth more.
Congressional Gold Medal was created in 1776.
It's a common bicentennial dollar, worth one dollar. If it has a mint mark of S, then it's worth a little more.
The merit Award was given to three Continental Army soldiers by General George Washington dueing the American Revolution (1776-1783). It was the forerunner of today's Purple Heart Medal.
The first U.S. dollar was issued in 1794 so there can't be a 1776 silver dollar.If you have a large (38.1 mm) coin with a picture of President Eisenhower on the front, it's a dual date (1776-1976) Bicentennial commemorative. (After all, Ike was born in 1890 so there's no way his picture could be on a real 1776 coin!) If you have a Bicentennial coin please see the related question.The other possibility is that you have a privately-minted medal, token, or fantasy piece. Unless it contains silver, these have little collector value.The first US silver dollar was struck in 1794 not 1776 but if you mean a dual date 1776-1976 Eisenhower dollar the coin has face value only.
1776
In 1776, General William Howe defeated George Washington.
Okay! No silver quarter for 1776.
George Washington went into the war in 1775.
