2025-S PCGS PR-70 First Day of Issue 250th U.S. Navy Anniversary Privy 1 oz American Silver Eagle Proof Coin – Navy Label
To honor 250 years of strength, service, and sacrifice, the U.S. Mint proudly issues a limited-edition American Silver Eagle Proof Coin featuring an exclusive U.S. Navy 250th Anniversary privy mark. This extraordinary release pays tribute to one of America’s most storied military branches while showcasing the Mint’s world-class craftsmanship and design precision.
Founded on October 13, 1775, the United States Navy has served as a cornerstone of national defense and a global symbol of freedom on the seas. Guided by its enduring values of honor, courage, and commitment, the Navy has protected American interests and ideals across every ocean for a quarter of a millennium.
Struck at the San Francisco Mint, these proof coins bear the “S” mint mark and were purchased on the first day of their official release, then certified by PCGS as PR-70 First Day of Issue and sealed with the exclusive Navy Label—a distinguished presentation honoring this historic milestone.

The Design
The obverse displays Adolph A. Weinman’s Walking Liberty, a timeless emblem of freedom and hope. Draped in the American flag, Lady Liberty strides toward the rising sun, carrying oak and laurel branches that symbolize strength and victory. The inscriptions “LIBERTY,” “IN GOD WE TRUST,” and the year of issue frame the design.
To the right of Liberty appears the U.S. Navy 250th Anniversary privy mark, which depicts an eagle with outstretched wings grasping an anchor in its talons—encircled by the words “UNITED STATES NAVY.” The design honors the Navy’s enduring maritime power and dedication to the defense of liberty.
The reverse showcases Emily Damstra’s Bald Eagle, captured in mid-flight clutching an oak branch in its talons—a symbol of American resilience and leadership. Surrounding inscriptions read “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “ONE DOLLAR,” “1 OZ. FINE SILVER,” and “E PLURIBUS UNUM.” The “S” mint mark appears to confirm its origin from San Francisco.
