Highlights:
If you purchase the 2002-W Proof American Eagle 1 oz Silver Coin in this listing, the item you receive is in perfect condition from the PCGS. Coins in PR70 condition exhibit full, original mint luster with no detracting flaws of any kind on the surface areas or background fields. The included DCAM label indicates the coins have strong, frosted design elements that combine with deeply-mirrored, clear background fields to create visual contrast between the two visual fields.
Obverse
The obverse side of the 2002-W Proof American Eagle 1 oz Silver Coin includes a vision of Walking Liberty. This image was created in 1916 and reflected a sense of hope for peace and prosperity in the US at the time. Hoping to stay out of World War I, Americans wanted brighter days ahead and peace on the horizon. In this design, Liberty walks toward the sun on the horizon with the American flag draped over her shoulders.
Reverse
On the reverse field, 2002 Proof American Eagle 1 oz Silver Coins have a depiction of the heraldic eagle of the United States. This image was created first in 1792 by Robert Scot and has been redesigned numerous times. This particular design is the modern version created in 1986 by John Mercanti.
