Obverse

Walking Liberty appears on the obverse of all Proof American Eagle 1 oz Silver Coins in this 34-Coin set. The image of Walking Liberty was designed by Adolph A. Weinman and features in left-profile relief with Liberty walking toward the sun on the horizon with the American flag over her shoulders. This design first featured on the Walking Liberty Half Dollar from 1916 to 1947.

Reverse

Designed by John Mercanti for this series, the heraldic eagle of the United States is found on the reverse of 1986-2020 Proof American Eagle 1 oz Silver Coins. Originally designed by Robert Scot in 1794, the heraldic eagle has been modernized several times. In this most recent modernization, the coins have a powerful bald eagle with the national shield and a triangular cluster of 13 stars above its head.

History

Proof American Eagle 1 oz Silver Coins were available from 1986 to 2008 and again from 2010 to the present. The 2009 halt in the program was due to the high demand for the silver bullion version of the coin. To meet that demand, the US Mint had to suspend its collectible coins to redirect all available silver blanks for coining the investment-grade version of the coin.

Ordering

Keep in mind as you order this set that mint marks will vary on the reverse side of the coin based on the date. Proof American Eagle Silver Coins were struck at the San Francisco Mint from 1986 to 1992, the Philadelphia Mint from 1993 to 2000, and at the West Point Mint from 2001 to present. As such, the coins will feature S, P, and W mint marks based on the date.
