In 2021, the United States Mint introduced important updates to the American Eagle silver and gold coin series. Halfway through the year, new reverse designs were launched for both programs, creating two separate versions of the 2021 Silver Eagle. Collectors could choose between the original reverse and the newly introduced design. One notable release from that year is the 2-Coin Designer Set, which includes both versions of the 2021 Silver Eagle struck in reverse proof finish. Right now, 2021 Reverse Proof American Eagle Silver 2-Coin Designer Sets graded by NGC are available from Provident Metals.
