Weinman in 1916, this iconic image has graced the American Silver Eagle since the series’ inception in 1986. It captures Liberty striding into the sunset, holding oak branches while draped in the American flag. Inscriptions read LIBERTY, IN GOD WE TRUST, and 2010.

Reverse

The reverse side of the 2010-W Proof American Eagle 1 oz Coin features the heraldic eagle design by John Mercanti. This emblematic design adorned Silver Eagles from 1986 to 2021, depicting a forward-facing eagle clutching a shield on its chest and encircled by 13 five-pointed stars. Inscriptions include UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, E PLURIBUS UNUM, JM, W, 1 OZ. FINE SILVER, and ONE DOLLAR.

History

Proof American Silver Eagles have been a cherished tradition since 1986. In 2009, due to economic uncertainty, the US Mint prioritized the production of BU Silver Eagles, leading to a temporary halt in proof strikes for the first time in this illustrious series. However, they made a triumphant return in 2010 with a mintage of nearly 850,000, marking the second-highest mintage since 1988.
