Coin Advisor introduces the 2024 $1 1 oz Burnished Silver Eagle, also known as the Uncirculated Silver Eagle. This highly sought-after collector coin is the lowest minted annually produced Silver Eagle in the Mint's impressive line-up. Struck in .999 fine silver, the Silver Eagle is the most collected silver coin in the world.
The obverse design features a rendition of Adolph A. Weinman's famous Walking Liberty Half Dollar design. Widely considered one of the most beautiful American coins ever produced, it portrays Lady Liberty striding towards a bright future while draped in the stars and stripes of the American flag.
Since 2021, the American Silver Eagle has featured the Type 2 Reverse created by Emily Damstra. The design symbolizes strength and freedom, depicting a majestic eagle coming in for a landing with its wings spread and an olive branch in its talons.
Minted at the West Point Mint, this low-mintage American Silver Eagle features the "W" mint mark, setting it apart from the annual bullion coin and making it a fine addition to any coin collection. NGC has certified this coin as a perfect MS70 in First Day of Issue pedigree, with the NGC US Mint Engraver Series label, hand-signed by Michael Gaudioso (engraver of the Type 2 Reverse).
