Gorgeous Silver Eagle Imagery
Obverse: Lady Liberty is portrayed on the obverse walking towards the rising sun carrying an oak and laurel bouquet, while elegantly wrapped in an American flag. This timeless rendition of Liberty is borrowed from the 1916 Walking Liberty Half Dollar designed by acclaimed medallic sculptor Adolph A. Weinman. Inscribed "LIBERTY," "IN GOD WE TRUST" and "2012."
Reverse: The reverse features a heraldic eagle clutching an olive branch and arrows, with thirteen stars above. Inscriptions include "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "1 OZ. FINE SILVER," "ONE DOLLAR," "W" and "E PLURIBUS UNUM." This handsome eagle design is credited to John Mercanti, the 12th Chief Engraver of the U.S. Mint. The classic image is the identifying element of the Type-1 Silver Eagle issued from 1986 until mid-2021.
