Your Ike Silver Dollar - How Much Is It Worth?
So, you've stumbled across an Ike Dollar, and now you want to find out how much it's worth. Well, you've come to the right place. Identifying the value of any coin is very important. By doing so, you can be assured that the coin you are selling is worth the amount paid. It can also help you when you're buying coins, as knowing the value will assure you that you are getting your money's worth, and are not paying for overpriced coins.
But before going into that, here are some facts about the Ike Silver Dollar.
During the years 1971-1978, the U.S. government issued out the Eisenhower Dollar. It was the first U.S. dollar that did not make use of a precious metal. In fact, it was composed of 100% copper, with its outer layer composed of 75% copper and 25% nickel.
But, there were also silver-copper issues released by the U.S. government. These silver-copper issues, or what we call the Ike Silver Dollar coins, were especially minted for the purpose of selling to collectors. They were minted at San Francisco, at years 1971, 1972, 1973, 1974, and 1976. These coins were either proof (Brown Ikes) or uncirculated (Blue Ikes).
What are Ike Silver Dollar specifications?
The coin's diameter is 38.1 mm, and weighs 24.59 grams. It's composed of .800 silver, .200 copper bonded to .209 silver. Aggregate 60% copper and 40% silver. Its Net Weight is .3161 ounce pure silver, or 9.841 grams. It has a reeded edge.
Why it's worth collecting
The Ike Silver Dollar will always hold a special place in the heart of any American coin collector. The Ike Dollar of 1971-1976 holds the largest portrait of a president, or any real person for that matter, to ever appear on a regular-issue American coin. It is also considered very unique, since it is the last of the great traditional size 38 mm silver dollar series.
How to tell its worth
Identifying the value of your Ike Silver Dollar is not as easy as you think it is. You have to consider factors like year of minting, exactly what variety it is, and also the condition.
Most of the Ike silver dollars are in banged up or worn condition. In this case, it could be worth just the face value or maybe a bit more basing on the silver content. But even with that, it isn't much since the coin is really not made up of 90% silver.
Those Ike silver dollars that are in mint state condition will have a higher value, probably around +, again depending on its date, exact grade, and grading company.
Those with lower grades but are uncirculated can still cost you about or more. Those that are circulated are probably worth , unless you have the rare ones that command a premium. These rare coins include 1972 type 2, type 3, and 1976 type 1. These coins sell for a little over its face value.
So, although the Ike dollar is really not worth much, it can still be a fun coin to collect. Remember, they are the last of the big and heavy dollar coins produced in the U.S., so you can keep it as a treasured memento.

Goodbaby Strollers on the Move
I would be willing to that bet you have never heard of Goodbaby. Yet they control 70% of the stroller market in China. They manufacture two out of every five strollers sold in the U.S. And they have a 15% market share in Europe primarily in the luxury model category. There is a very good chance that you have a Goodbaby product in your home and do not even know it. Goodbaby makes 10,000 strollers a day, most of them for overseas brands. In all they make 15 different labels.
Song Zhenghuan was intent on becoming the world's number one maker of infant and child products. But when he designed a rocking chair in 1989, one of his employees mistook it for a stroller. Song added wheels and the rest as they say is history. As of May 2009, the company was still privately owned but the initial public offering was on many investor's radar.
Goodbaby opened its flagship store in Shanghai in 2006. Its targeted market is middle-class Chinese families. Ironically, not far away is a competitor who caters to wealthier Chinese families willing to spend big money on foreign label products. Goodbaby not only owns a share in this store too, but many of the products for sale there are made right in China by Goodbaby.
Song Zhenghuan's number one challenge today is to make the Goodbaby label a top seller in its own right. He faces the challenge of overcoming global bias, which he admits was brought on in part by unscrupulous Chinese companies who produced shoddy and dangerous baby products. He knows it will take time but he is confident that China will someday enjoy the same reputation that Japan does for producing quality goods.
Song has taken an interesting route to baby stroller mogul. He began his career as a math teacher eventually becoming a vice-principal. When China first began experimenting in capitalism, some schools were required to create businesses to fund themselves. So Song borrowed from his fellow teachers and opened a microwave oven factory which was a resounding failure.
Eventually, through alumni connections, the factory got work making stroller parts. Song quickly saw that profits would be higher on finished products. Over the last 20 years, Goodbaby has been innovating stroller design. They feel their R&D is what sets the company apart from their competitors. That and the fact that they made a combo rocking chair/stroller work.
Goodbaby has produced strollers under the brand names of Cosco, Safety First and Eddie Bauer to name a few. Other non-stroller brand names manufactured by Goodbaby are Quinny, Nike Kids and Tommee Tippee. One distinction that has set them apart from other Chinese manufacturers of infant and child products is that Goodbaby has welcomed foreign investors and taken advise from their experience. This has helped them understand the expectations of the world market.
In 2006, a China focused private equity firm, the Pacific Alliance Group, bought a 67 percent stake in Goodbaby, effecting what some call the first western style leveraged buyout of a Chinese company. It was this equity firm that was expected to take Goodbaby public. But that has not happened. And instead, PAG has hired Morgan Stanley to sell their shares to other interested private equity firms.
This sale is going to have a very high profile because traditionally, the Chinese government has not easily approved foreign investments and the private culture of business ownership in China is strong. What started as one factory is now more than ten specialty factories and they have their own industrial park employing over 16,000 people.
What's next? Goodbaby plans to grow its online presence as many young Chinese parents like to shop on the internet. If history has been any indication, expect to see a lot more of Goodbaby in the years to come.

How to Jump Higher in Two Weeks
A lot of athletes wonder if there's a method or way to jump higher in two weeks. Of course, this would be very beneficial to players of basketball or volleyball or especially for high jumpers. Higher jumps in basketball could mean more blocks, rebounds and dunks. Volleyball spikers also take an edge with higher jumps and the advantage will obviously be clear when literally doing a high jump. Fortunately, there are ways for players to add some inches to their jumps in just two weeks. In just two weeks? Yes, it is possible. With some certain guidelines, you can make a jump higher in just two weeks!
First, enhance your body flexibility. Most players who make the most powerful high jumps are the athletes whose bodies are totally flexible. For example, if a hurdle athlete will be able to swing his leading leg as high as he desires, this then maximizes his momentum of jumping. By putting a leg a bit higher than the other hurdler, the player has an advantage. It's interesting to note that all high jumping athletes have 3:2 strength ratio among their quadriceps and hamstrings. You can enhance your flexibility by stretching regularly, focus more on your ankles, knees and hips. Do this and you'll jump higher in two weeks and amaze yourself.
Second, get working on those abs. Strengthen your abs especially the inner. You don't need to have a six-pack to jump higher, all you need is to strengthen it. Abs play a crucial role in every powerful jump. So, if you want to get higher jumps, crunch up.
Third, exercise and strengthen the muscles in your feet, especially the dorsi-flexors which decrease the angle between the leg and foot. These muscles are stabilizers so that when you jump, you are able to carry or pull your feet up. The best exercise for the dorsi-flexor is by walking around using the heels but not letting the balls of the feet touch the ground. Walk in this manner until you can feel that burning sensation, people will laugh at you - but make a note of them, and next time you see them on that basketball court - slam a dunk right in their face!
Lastly, exercise those cute toes. Ballet dancers are not the only people who should do this. For people who jump, this is an essential matter. This adds to the power in pushing your feet to the ground to give you that springing up movement. If we notice, these toes are the last to leave the ground when we jump. Thus, we need to strengthen these to enhance and add force to our jumping endeavor. The exercises for the toes include curling and uncurling them for many times (maybe when you are not doing anything), or pushing up onto the tip toes and holding them in the position up to ten seconds.
There are the simple steps. Now, if you have the will to do these, you will surely jump higher in two weeks and be the next sports icon in your team or even in your community.
