2023-W PCGS PR-69 1 oz American Eagle Silver Proof Coin
The American Silver Eagle stands out as one of the best-sold among the most popular silver coins globally. The US Mint first released it in 1986, when the American Eagle Program was introduced.
US Silver Eagles contain 1 Troy oz of 99.9% fine silver, with legal tender status and a remarkable obverse design that showcases Adolph A. Weinman’s beloved “The Walking Liberty” and Emily Damstra’s new Bald Eagle reverse.
In addition to bullion versions, the US Mint crafts Proof Silver Eagles, enhanced by brilliant luster that highlights the most intricate design details. These coins, in particular, were issued in the West Point branch and bear the “W” mint mark.
Today, SD Bullion offers 2023-W 1 oz American Eagle Silver Proof Coins, sealed in PCGS slabs and certified as PR-69 samples.

The Design
The Walking Liberty is the art engraved on the obverse side.
Lady Liberty is the symbol of a personified nation. She has the American flag draped on her shoulder and oak branches on her arm.
While the sun shines in the background, she walks with a stretched arm, generously welcoming those looking for a fresh start in the new land. Arching over her, read “LIBERTY.” Aside from that, read: “IN GOD WE TRUST,” and at the bottom, read the year of mintage.
The Bald Eagle has long been the reverse design. As 2021 marks the program's 35th anniversary, a new reverse side, depicting the Eagle perching on a branch, became the current image.
Inscriptions regarding the coin’s weight, metal content, and purity are: “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “ONE DOLLAR,” “1 OZ,” and “FINE SILVER.”
A PCGS PR-69 Coin
PCGS—Professional Coin Grading Service appraises and grades coins using the Sheldon Grading Scale, which ranges from 1 to 70.
PR 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.
