Breathtaking Beauty of the Silver Eagle Type-2 Design

Obverse: Lady Liberty is portrayed as a young woman walking towards a new day's sun on the obverse. Her elegant form is enveloped by an American flag as she carries a bundle of oak and laurel branches, which represent endurance, honor and triumph. Inscribed "LIBERTY" and "IN GOD WE TRUST," with the date of issue "2021" or "2022." This time-honored design is the work of award-winning early 20th century sculptor Adolph A. Weinman, originally created for the Walking Liberty Half Dollar in 1916. Mr. Weinman's "AW" monogram located beneath the motto is new to the Silver Eagle Type-2 style.

Reverse: The reverse is graced with a majestic eagle carrying an oak branch, with its wings uplifted in preparation for landing. Inscriptions include "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "1 OZ. FINE SILVER," "E PLURIBUS UNUM," "ONE DOLLAR" and the West Point Mint's distinctive "W" Mint mark. The image is an example of the nature themed illustrations of U.S. Mint Artistic Infusion Program artist Emily Damstra.
