Product Details
As the official silver bullion coin of the United States, the Silver Eagle has enjoyed a significant degree of popularity among both collectors and investors alike. Soon, the United States Mint will present next year’s 2015 collection of American Silver Eagle Coins.
The artwork featured on the American Silver Eagle speaks to many of the core beliefs that we uphold as Americans. On the obverse of the coin is Adolph A. Weinman’s “Walking Liberty” design, which portrays Lady Liberty passing through an open field to meet the rising sun. She is garbed in a traditional toga bearing the stars and stripes of our nation’s flag. In one arm, she cradles a bundle of oak and olive branches, while the other extends before her in a gesture of welcome. Weinman’s stunning imagery reflects the generosity that our nation demonstrates towards those who come here in search of more opportunities and a better life.
Currently displayed on the reverse side of the coin is John Mercanti’s rendition of the heraldic eagle. This iconic crest depicts our national bird, majestically spreading its wings around a large, star-spangled shield as it carries a banner with the words “E Pluribus Unum” in its beak. In its opposing talons, it clutches an olive branch and a set of arrows to symbolize the peace that we strive for within this country as well as the defensive measures we must use to maintain it. Directly above the eagle is a triangular formation of thirteen stars in honor of the original colonies. Mercanti finishes his design by inscribing “United States of America” along with the coin’s weight and denomination near the outer edge of the coin.
