1971 D Eisenhower Memorial Dollar
Clad Not silver

Director Mary Brooks initially lobbied for the coin to be struck in silver to continue with tradition. Unfortunately, Congress had no interest in continuing to produce circulating coins in silver. The Coinage Act of 1965 called for the removal of silver from America’s dimes and quarters and reduced the silver content of half dollars from .900 fine to a 40% silver-clad composition. Over the next five years, silver coins all but disappeared from circulation and the silver-clad Kennedy Half Dollar saw limited use.
