Type 1 and Type 2 Silver Eagles
Obverse: While the focus has been on the reverse, the transition from Type 1 to Type 2 also brought some changes to the obverse. However, it still displays Adolph A. Weinman’s Walking Liberty. The Type 2 version is closer to Weinman’s original.
Reverse: This side of each coin is very different. The Type 1 reverse shows a heraldic bald eagle design. The Type 2 reverse depicts a bald eagle in flight with an oak branch in its talons as it prepares to land.
