Spectacular Type-1 Silver Eagle Imagery
Obverse: Lady Liberty is depicted on the obverse carrying an oak and laurel bouquet, with an American flag draped around her walking figure. Inscribed "LIBERTY," "IN GOD WE TRUST" and "2021." This timeless interpretation of Liberty is a revival of the 1916 Walking Liberty Half Dollar design created by acclaimed early 20th century sculptor Adolph A. Weinman.
Reverse: The reverse depicts a heraldic eagle beneath thirteen stars, with an olive branch and bundle of arrows in its grip. Inscribed "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "1 OZ. FINE SILVER," "ONE DOLLAR," "E PLURIBUS UNUM" and the West Point Mint mark "W." The patriotic design is credited to sculptor John Mercanti, the currently retired 12th Chief Engraver of the U.S. Mint.
