2024-W PCGS PR-70 First Strike 1 oz American Silver Eagle Proof Coin

The American Silver Eagle is the official silver coin in the US. The US Mint introduced it in 1986 after the signing of the Liberty Coin Act.

A Silver Eagle coin weighs 1 Troy Oz of 99.9% fine silver. It is legal tender with a 1-dollar face value and features iconic national symbols on both sides.

In addition to the bullion version, the US Mint produces Proof Silver Eagles, which display a unique brilliant aspect thanks to the proof finish. The “W” mint mark, referring to the West Point branch in charge of their production, is an exclusive feature of the proof version.

The reverse displays Emily Damstra’s Bald Eagle perched on a branch with open wings. The design has inscribed “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “ONE DOLLAR,” “1 OZ,” and “FINE SILVER,” informing the coin’s face value, weight, and metal content, and the motto “E PLURIBUS UNUM.”
