5-Pack - 2021-(S) American Silver Eagle Emergency Production Struck at San Francisco Mint Type 1 NGC MS69 Brown Label

Why purchase this 5-Pack of Type I 2021-(S) Emergency Production 1 oz American Silver Eagles Struck at the San Francisco Mint?

The five coins in this set were each struck as part of a supplemental production of Silver Eagles at the San Francisco Mint. The United States Mint made the unusual decision to strike bullion Silver Eagles at the San Francisco Mint in an effort to keep up with collector demand and to combat pandemic-related production delays during the COVID-19 pandemic. Typically such bullion coins are struck at the West Point Mint. These coins may be of particular interest to collectors because the Silver Eagle's reverse design is set to change for the first time ever mid-year.

• Each coin in this set is $1 U.S. legal tender.
• Each piece was struck on a 1 oz planchet of .999 fine silver.
• These coins come from the 35th anniversary issue of Silver Eagles.

• They are part of the final bullion Silver Eagle issue to bear John Mercanti's original heraldic eagle reverse design.
• This coin was given the Type-1 pedigree to note that it bears the original Mercanti Heraldic Eagle reverse design.

Featuring John Mercanti's Original Reverse Design

Obverse: On the obverse is the iconic Walking Liberty design of Adolph Weinman. Draped in the American flag, Liberty carries laurel and oak branches in one arm while extending her other to greet the new day as the morning sun emerges from beyond the horizon. "LIBERTY," "IN GOD WE TRUST," and "2021" are inscribed on this face. Adolph Weinman is most famous for his Walking Liberty Half Dollar and Mercury Dime. He also made many sculptures, some of which can still be seen in various American cities.

Reverse: For the final time the reverse bears John Mercanti's adaptation of the Great Seal of the United States. Thirteen stars represent the original states above an eagle, which guards a union shield. Rim inscriptions note the name of the issuing country, "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," the coin's metal content, "1 OZ. FINE SILVER," and face value, "ONE DOLLAR." John Mercanti has designed more coins and medals than anyone else in American history. His nearly four decades with the US Mint included time as the institution's Chief Engraver.

Each of the coins in this set were graded Mint State 69 by the experts at Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC). That grade indicates that a coin appears perfect to the unaided eye. This information, along with the "Emergency Production" pedigree is provided on standard brown labels.
