Striking Eagle Landing Design by Emily Damstra
Obverse: Adolph Weinman's Walking Liberty design returns to the obverse, where it has been since the series began. The morning sun rises from beyond mountains as Liberty, draped in the American flag, carries branches of laurel and oak. Inscriptions on this face read, "LIBERTY," "IN GOD WE TRUST," and "2021.' Adolph Weinman was a prolific sculptor who made numerous contributions to numismatics. His most famous works were the designs of the Mercury Dime and Walking Liberty Half Dollar.
Reverse: On the reverse is a new Eagle Landing design by Emily Damstra. Sculpted by Michael Gaudioso, it shows the bird with its wings spread and an oak branch in its talons. The rim inscriptions have been rearranged from the Type 1 version, but the text remains the same, reading, "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "ONE DOLLAR," and "1 OZ. FINE SILVER." "E PLURIBUS UNUM" is included on the right.
