Default Help identifying coins

Hello all -

Sorry for this annoying post but I am new to this. Wanted some help identifying a few things that I have found. I think I have an idea on these but it’s hard to cut through some of the bs out there as I try to verify what these are.

These are Eisenhower coins obviously. One has the “D” mark which I believe means no silver? But are these collectible? I have quite a lot of these w no letter, which I now understand means they contain no silver.

The other 2 coins have the liberty bell and the moon on the back. Can anyone help w these?


Having trouble embedding so here is the link: https://imgur.com/a/sMtPlK7



For the record, my belief is that these are very likely not valuable but I wanted
To confirm.

Thank you!
Jeff

No letter doesn't quite always mean no silver; some silver proof coins have been minted at San Francisco, but you don't have to go back that many years before the Ike dollar to a time when there were silver coins with no branch mint marks. The U.S. Mint is in Philadelphia, and in that era it had no mint mark (and nearly never had had one). Branch mints did and still do. In that time the branch mints were Denver and SF. There used to be a bunch of others before our time.

These are Ikes, spelled out as Eisenhower dollars. They were our first cartwheel dollars since 1935, when the Peace dollar was discontinued. I don't see anything special about either Ike, from the limited display at least. They're worth a buck each. The Liberty Bell/moon reverse was for just one year, the bicentennial, over which the whole country was gaga. They did special quarters and halves as well, including mint and proof sets--some in 90% silver.
