Weinman’s iconic Walking Liberty design on the obverse and John Mercanti’s heraldic eagle on the reverse. Each coin is typically produced at either the San Francisco or West Point Mint, bearing the respective “S” or “W” mint mark, and is presented in an official display case accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.

For many, the 2017 issue holds particular interest, as it continues the legacy of the American Silver Eagle series while offering the unique characteristics and packaging that proof coins are known for.
