Question
I'm not a collector, but I'm interested in getting more of the large silver dollars I have in my change bucket in used, unremarkable condition. I currently have a 1977 Eisenhower and would like to get more of any U.S. silver dollar like this for my children who love these large-to-the-touch coins.

Answer
Hello Douglas,
Many banks still have these available for their customers at $1 ea.
These are known as Eisenhower dollars.
You can buy them on eBay for about $1.50 each but why pay that if you don't have to.
Give a call to any bank near you.
Regards
