Then it's probably silver. Melt is $7.57 today.
@Joy_Matherne - if you just want to see if you have an Ike that might be silver, you can visually compare the two. The color of the surfaces, and...
Some nice examples above. My only one: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] The obverse depicts the statue of Washington in Union Square. Pretty spot on, if you...
I would suggest buying one graded. This is a common coin, and even with the nice toning, you can probably find a good example around $30 or less....
