Why purchase this pristine 35th Anniversary 2021-W American Silver Eagle Type-1 proof coin?

After thirty-five consecutive years of release with unchanged imagery, the U.S. Mint introduced the Type-2 style American Silver Eagle in 2021. Prior to the launch of the new design partway through the year, the Mint issued 2021 dated coins in the original Type-1 variety. The Type-1 style is characterized by the iconic heraldic eagle graphic on the reverse, which is credited to John Mercanti, the Mint's currently retired 12th Chief Engraver.

• The 40.60 mm diameter coin contains 1 Troy oz. of .999 fine silver.
• The perfectly graded silver dollar includes a celebratory 35th Anniversary style label.

Classic American Silver Eagle Imagery

Reverse: The reverse features a heraldic eagle with a bundle of arrows and an olive branch in its grasp. Inscriptions include "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "1 OZ. FINE SILVER," "ONE DOLLAR," the Mint mark "W" and "E PLURIBUS UNUM."
