The American Silver Eagle is the official silver bullion coin of the US! Each year, the American Silver Eagle is released, containing the same, timeless design of Lady Liberty. First minted in 1986, the popular and world-renowned American Silver Eagle not only grabs the attention of avid coin collectors but it also has changed the silver bullion industry in the US. The American Silver Eagle contains one troy ounce of pure .999 silver, thus also attracting bullion investors to this remarkable coin. The American Silver Eagle remains the preferred silver bullion coin for collection and investment purposes.
Similar to the US, most countries have their own silver dollar that is marked with that country's insignia, historical etchings, and whatever else that is important to that nation. The American Silver Eagle displays much of the history of the US and is the perfect way to mark a special occasion for loved ones. The US Coat of Arms, the Walking Liberty, and the 13 stars to symbolize the original 13 colonies are just a few reasons why the American Silver Eagle isn't just about the silver but the history that comes along with it.

-Obverse: Inspired by Adolph A. Weinman's famous design on the Walking Liberty half dollar from 1916-1947. The Walking Liberty design was chosen, due to its popularity by being the most popular image on a US coin in coinage history. This iconic image graces the obverse of every American Silver Eagle; Lady Liberty is delicately draped in a loose fitting dress as she holds dearly some branches in her arm and the US flag over her shoulders. "Liberty," "In God We Trust," and the date of mintage are stamped on the obverse as well.
-Reverse: The reverse reveals the US Seal: a large eagle with outstretched wings, talons holding branches and arrows, and a shield to protect its chest.
