More About This Collection

About American Silver Eagle Coins

Introduced by the United States Mint in 1986, the American Silver Eagle is one of the most widely collected modern U.S. coin series. Each coin contains one troy ounce of .999 fine silver and features Adolph A. Weinman's celebrated Walking Liberty design, originally introduced on the 1916 Walking Liberty Half Dollar.

Over the decades, American Silver Eagles have developed a rich collecting history through annual releases, different finishes, special issues, and professionally graded examples. Collectors pursue everything from individual dates and complete year sets to Proof coins, special anniversary releases, and certified MS70 and PF70 examples.

The History and Design of American Silver Eagles

The American Silver Eagle program began in 1986, bringing Weinman's historic Walking Liberty design to a modern silver coin. The obverse depicts Liberty walking toward the rising sun, draped in the American flag and carrying branches of laurel and oak.

From 1986 through the first half of 2021, the reverse featured John Mercanti's Heraldic Eagle design, depicting an eagle with a shield, olive branch, and arrows beneath thirteen stars.

In 2021, the U.S. Mint introduced the Type 2 American Silver Eagle, featuring a new Eagle Landing reverse designed by Emily Damstra and sculpted by Michael Gaudioso. This change created two distinct reverse designs for the 2021 issue, commonly known as Type 1 and Type 2 Silver Eagles.

The transition represents an important milestone in the series, with collectors pursuing both reverse types, anniversary issues, and special releases across the program's history.

American Silver Eagle Finishes and Special Releases

American Silver Eagles have been produced in several finishes, each offering a different collecting experience.

Mint State Silver Eagles are generally associated with the annual bullion releases and are commonly collected by date, grade, and certification label.

Proof Silver Eagles feature specially prepared dies and polished surfaces that highlight the details of Weinman's Walking Liberty design and the coin's reverse.

Burnished Silver Eagles, first introduced in 2006, feature a distinctive satin-like finish and are popular among collectors seeking special Uncirculated releases.

The series has also included Reverse Proof and Enhanced Reverse Proof Silver Eagles, along with anniversary sets, privy-marked issues, and other limited releases that add variety to the collection.

Certified American Silver Eagles

American Silver Eagles certified by PCGS, NGC, and CAC offer collectors independent authentication and professional grading. Available examples may include Mint State coins graded MS70 and Proof coins graded PF70 or PR70, depending on the grading service.

Collectors may also consider special release designations, certification labels, individual mintages, and population reports when selecting coins for their collections.
