Exquisitely Detailed Imagery of the Silver Eagle
Obverse: Lady Liberty is portrayed walking towards the rising sun on the obverse, with the flag of the United States billowing around her form. Inscribed “LIBERTY,” “IN GOD WE TRUST” and “2012.” The powerful patriotic image was originally designed for the 1916 Walking Liberty Half Dollar by renowned early 20th-century American sculptor Adolph A. Weinman.
Reverse: A heraldic eagle appears on the reverse, with a bundle of arrows and an olive branch in its grasp. This classic image identifies the Type-1 style Silver Eagle that was minted from 1986 until mid-2021. Inscribed “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “1 OZ. FINE SILVER,” “ONE DOLLAR” and “E PLURIBUS UNUM.” The image is the work of John Mercanti, the U.S. Mint’s 12th Chief Engraver.
