2023-S PCGS PR-69 1 oz American Eagle Silver Proof Coin

2023-S PCGS PR-69 1 oz American Eagle Silver Proof Coin

The American Silver Eagle is celebrated as one of the world’s best-selling and most popular silver coins. Introduced by the US Mint in 1986 alongside the launch of the American Eagle Program, it has become a symbol of quality and craftsmanship.

Each Silver Eagle contains 1 troy ounce of 99.9% pure silver, carries legal tender status, and features an iconic obverse design: Adolph A. Weinman’s timeless “Walking Liberty.” The reverse showcases Emily Damstra’s modern depiction of a Bald Eagle, adding to the coin’s appeal.

Alongside the standard bullion coins, the US Mint also produces Proof Silver Eagles, distinguished by their radiant luster that emphasizes the coin’s intricate details. These proof versions, struck at the San Francisco Mint, bear the “S” mint mark.

Today, SD Bullion offers 2023-S 1 oz American Eagle Silver Proof Coins, sealed in PCGS slabs and certified as PR-69 samples.

A PCGS PR-69 Coin
