Featuring a Heraldic Eagle Design by John Mercanti

Obverse: The obverse design was taken from Adolph Weinman's Walking Liberty Half Dollar. The morning sun begins to rise on Liberty as she carries laurel and oak branches in the foreground. Her name, "LIBERTY," is inscribed above, while the date, "2021," and the national motto, "IN GOD WE TRUST," are also included on this face. Adolph Weinman was a prominent sculptor whose work can still be seen prominently displayed in a variety of American cities. His most famous numismatic contributions were the Mercury Dime and the Walking Liberty Half Dollar.

Reverse: On the reverse is a heraldic eagle design that John Mercanti modeled off of the Great Seal of the United States. The eagle holds arrows and an olive branch while protecting a union shield below thirteen stars, which represent the country's original states. "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" is inscribed on the top half of the rim, while inscriptions on the bottom half note the coin's metal content, "1 OZ. FINE SILVER," and face value, "ONE DOLLAR.' John Mercanti was the twelfth Chief Engraver of the US Mint. He held that post for part of his thirty-seven years with the institution. He is the most prolific coin and medal designer in American history.
