2017-W NGC PF-69 1 oz American Silver Eagle Proof Coin

2017-W NGC PF-69 1 oz American Silver Eagle Proof Coin

When the US Mint introduced American Silver Eagle coins in 1986, they quickly became popular among investors and collectors. 

In addition to the bullion version, the US Mint also produces Proof Silver Eagles, which are one-ounce coins made of 99.9% fine silver, like their bullion counterparts. 

The designs on both sides symbolize the core American values and principles established by the Founding Fathers, enhanced by the proof finish. 

These Proof Silver Eagles are specifically produced at the West Point Mint, one of the branches of the US Mint, and bear its mintmark.

The Design

The reverse design showcases the Eagle, which carries the national seal on its chest, arrows and olive branches on its talons, and a banner with the motto “E PLURIBUS UNUM” on its beak. The Thirteen Colonies are represented by the thirteen stars atop.

Engravings regarding face value, weight, metal content, and purity read “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “1 OZ FINE SILVER,” and “ONE DOLLAR.”

The Walking Liberty obverse design portrays Lady Liberty, who is enveloped in the American flag and holds oak and laurel branches in her arm. The words “LIBERTY,” “IN GOD WE TRUST,” and the year of issuance are also engraved.

An NGC PF-69 Coin

The Sheldon Grading Scale ranges from 1 to 70 and is used as a parameter for third-party services, like NGC, which stands for Numismatic Guaranty Company, to appraise and grade coins.

According to the scale, PF stands for Proof Coin, indicating a coin produced for collection purposes, which exhibits mirror-like surfaces in contrast with frosted design elements. 69 is the grade attributed to coins whose flaws are almost invisible.
