2023 1 oz American Silver Eagle Proof Coins
No silver bullion coin program has been as successful as the American Silver Eagles. Celebrating its 37th anniversary in 2023, the US Mint presents the 2023 1 oz Silver Eagle Proof Coins.
Containing one troy ounce of fine .999 silver and the beloved “Walking Liberty” design, these coins now showcase a new version of the Heraldic Eagle, featured on the reverse side.
The proof finish applied to the coin provides the designs with a 3-D effect, making details more visible and brilliant. 2023 1 oz American Silver Eagle Proof Coins are now available from SD Bullion.

The 2023 1 oz Proof Coin Design
The obverse features Adolph A. Weinman's Walking Liberty, firstly imprinted on the Half-Dollar Coins. Lady Liberty walks towards the sun rays, enveloped in the American flag, carrying branches of oak and laurels in one hand while extending the other hand in a welcome sign.
The words engraved on this side are “LIBERTY,” “IN GOD WE TRUST,” and the year of mintage.
The reverse depicts the newest image of the Heraldic Eagle through a more natural optic but equally glorious. Emily Damstra, US Mint Artistic Infusion Program Designer, signs the creation. In the picture, the eagle prepares to perch with wide open wings, carrying a branch. The inscriptions remain “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “1 OZ,” “FINE SILVER,” and “ONE DOLLAR.” The motto “E PLURIBUS UNUM” now appears above the weight.
Mintage
Struck in a limited number of pieces, the US Mint produces American Silver Eagles in proof finishes as a collectible version of the Silver Eagle Bullion coin.
Traditionally weighing 1 troy ounce of pure silver, the 2023 coins receive the same Walking Liberty design on the obverse, but a new reverse imprint, as the Heraldic Eagle got a more natural depiction for the 35th-anniversary coin in the 2020 Silver Eagle Type 2 edition.
Besides the new reverse design, the 2023 issue has reeded edge variations as a new anti-counterfeit measure.
The American Silver Eagle Series
The US Mint officially introduced the American Eagle Program in 1986. Gold and Silver Eagles soon conquered investors’ and collectors’ admiration, becoming the Mint’s most successful program.
Globally renowned, the series maintains the Silver Eagle Series limited to the 1 oz coin, in BU, proof, and reverse proof finishes. As for the Gold Eagles, the US Mint produces not only the 1 oz size but also the fractional ½ oz, ¼ oz, and 1/10 oz coins.
By purchasing this item, you may receive either a West Point Mint Silver Eagle proof or a San Francisco Mint Silver Eagle proof. Whichever one you receive will be based on currently available inventory.
Why buy the 2023 1 oz Silver Eagle Proof Coin
The Silver Eagle Program has 38 successful editions, with uncountable coins minted over the years. Proof Silver Eagles had their first mintage in 1986 with yearly releases, except in 2008, when the US Mint redirected all silver bullion to the regular bullion Silver Eagle due to the highly increased demand that year.
Each Silver Eagle Proof coin contains 1 oz of the purest .999 silver. Silver carries intrinsic value as a noble, precious metal, which means that each coin is worth at least its weight in silver.
