Collectors who appreciate the designs that appear on circulated coinage are sure to appreciate this Limited Edition Silver Proof Set. Each coin in the set bears the San Francisco Mint’s “S” mint mark. The Silver Eagle was struck from one ounce of .999 fine silver, while the other coins are .900 fine silver. The dime weighs in at 2.5 g, the quarters at 6.25 g each, and the half dollar at 12.5 g. Just 50,000 sets were issued, and each one is sure to be prized by a collector for years to come.
Exquisite America the Beautiful Designs
Each of the five quarters in the set bears the design of one of the 2018 America the Beautiful quarters. The parks represented are Michigan’s Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, Wisconsin’s Apostle Islands National Lakeshore, Minnesota’s Voyageurs National Park, Georgia’s Cumberland Island National Seashore, and Rhode Island’s Block Island National Wildlife Refuge.
The other dime, half dollar, and Silver Eagle each feature their traditional designs. Most famous among them is Adolph Weinman’s Walking Liberty, which is on the obverse of the Silver Eagle.
Virtually Perfect PF69 UC ER
Each of the coins in this set is in perfect condition as seen by the naked eye according to the experts at Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC), who awarded the coins Proof 69 grades. The coins were also certified as Ultra Cameo and Early Releases. The former indicates that they have strong contrasts between deeply mirrored fields and heavily frosted devices, while the latter indicates that they were received for grading within 30 days of their initial mint release.
