Breathtaking American Silver Eagle Type-2 Imagery
Obverse: The obverse features the flag-wrapped walking figure of Lady Liberty as she welcomes a new day's sun with her outstretched right arm, while cradling a bundle of oak and laurel branches in her left arm. Inscribed "LIBERTY," "2021" and "IN GOD WE TRUST." This patriotic design by acclaimed sculptor Adolph A. Weinman first appeared on the 1916 Walking Liberty Half Dollar. Although the image of Lady Liberty on the Silver Eagle remains unaltered, for the first time in the history of the series, the coin includes Weinman's initials "AW" beneath the motto.
Reverse: The reverse depicts a stunning eagle with its wings outstretched in descending flight. The beautiful creature has an oak branch in its grip, which is a symbol of honor, strength and wisdom. Inscriptions include "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "E PLURIBUS UNUM," "1 OZ. FINE SILVER" and "ONE DOLLAR." This new eagle image is the work of illustrator Emily Damstra, who has created multiple designs focused on science and nature themes for the U.S. and Royal Canadian Mints.
