Striking Designs by Adolph Weinman and John Mercanti

Obverse: The coin's obverse design comes from Adolph Weinman's famous Walking Liberty half dollar. Liberty bears branches that represent civilian and military honors as she steps confidently toward the left side of this face as the sun emerges from beyond the horizon. Obverse inscriptions include the figure's name, "LIBERTY," the national motto, "IN GOD WE TRUST," and the date, "2020." Adolph Weinman designed the Mercury dime and the Walking Liberty half dollar, two of the most important coins in America's early 20th century numismatic renaissance. He also created many sculptures over his career, some of which remain displayed in American cities today.

Reverse: The reverse image was created by John Mercanti specifically for the Silver Eagle. A union shield is protected by an eagle under thirteen stars, which represent the original states. This design is encircled by three rim inscriptions, "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "1 OZ. FINE SILVER," and "ONE DOLLAR." John Mercanti was the twelfth person to serve as the Chief Engraver of the US Mint. During his nearly four decades with the institution, he designed more of its coins and medals than anyone else in its history.
