Coin Design

• Obverse - The obverse features Adolph A. Weinman's iconic Walking Liberty design, symbolizing freedom and progress. Lady Liberty strides toward the rising sun, draped in the American flag and holding branches of laurel and oak. Weinman's initials "AW" can be found near Liberty's heal, below the inscription "IN GOD WE TRUST." "LIBERTY" and the date of issuance are also inscribed on the obverse.
• Reverse - The reverse, designed by AIP Designer Emily Damstra and sculpted by Medallic Artist Michael Gaudioso, features a majestic Bald Eagle in flight, clutching an oak branch in its talons. This powerful design represents strength, endurance, and freedom. Inscriptions include "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "E PLURIBUS UNUM," "1 OZ. FINE SILVER," and "ONE DOLLAR."

American Silver Eagle Series

Introduced in 1986 under the Liberty Coin Act, the American Silver Eagle is the official silver bullion coin of the United States and the most collected silver coin in the world. Originally designed by John Mercanti and featuring Adolph A. Weinman's "Walking Liberty," the series symbolizes American craftsmanship and liberty. In 2021, the series underwent a major redesign, featuring an enhanced obverse and a new reverse design. This redesign also added advanced security features, ensuring the coin's integrity for collectors worldwide.
