Found an Eisenhower Dollar!

I found it at an antique store for $2. I decided to start coin collecting again. I also found a nice antique marble.

if it's a type 1 you probably did ok. If it's a type 2, then not so much

I like Ike!

@jewelerguy, you got me interested so I did some research. The one that I found is a type 2.

Well, it wasn't a waste to me. I have a lot of memories of collecting coins when I was younger, The Eisenhower was in that collection. It just brings back a lot of good memories.

To me, it's not a waste. In my opinion a treasure is good if:

1 it is valuable

2 it brings good memories and emotions.

Or both.

The important thing is that the coin rekindled your interest in collecting coins again.
