Her name, “LIBERTY,” is inscribed on this face, as are the national motto, “IN GOD WE TRUST,” and the date, “2022.” Adolph Weinman played a central role in America’s early 20th century numismatic renaissance. His most famous numismatic designs are those of the Walking Liberty Half Dollar and the Mercury Dime.

Reverse: The reverse bears an Eagle Landing design that was introduced in mid-2021. The work of Emily Damstra, it shows an eagle as it prepares to land with an oak branch in its talons. The statutory motto “E PLURIBUS UNUM” is inside the rim inscriptions, which read, “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “1 OZ. FINE SILVER,” and “ONE DOLLAR.” Emily Damstra has been contributing designs to the US Mint since 2017. She has an M.F.A. from the University of Michigan.
