Special strike $1 American Silver Eagles are a collectible variety of the popular one-ounce silver bullion coin series issued by the United States Mint since 1986, struck with so-called "burnished" (soft, sand-blasted) surfaces. Popular for their unique surface appearance, they are also desirable for having much lower mintages than their proof-surface counterparts of the same year.
Obverse Description
The obverse design features a refreshed depiction of Adolph A. Weinman’s full-length figure of Liberty in full stride, enveloped in folds of the flag, with her right hand extended and branches of laurel and oak in her left.
Reverse Description
The reverse design features a stylized heraldic eagle design by John Mercanti.
