History of the American Silver Eagle Coin

The United States Mint has an impressive history that can attest to the quality and excellence of any of their products. Founded in the late 18th century, shortly after the achievement of American independence, the Philadelphia branch was originally a division of the State Department. However, it was granted autonomous agency status in 1799. Today, the Mint boasts four facilities across the country: Philadelphia (1792), San Francisco (1854), Denver (1863) and most recently West Point (1988). The West Point branch was originally built to serve as a storage unit; however, it now strikes American Eagles in gold, silver and platinum variants. While the Mint is primarily known for their production of legal coinage, they are also responsible for creating Congressional and commemorative medals, as well as the proper disbursement of gold and silver across the country.  The U.S. Mint began their American Eagle program in 1986, and it continues to be one of the most successful around the world. Over 531 million Silver Eagles have been produced since the series began nearly four decades ago.   

The Design

The design of the Silver Eagle is easily one of the most recognized around the world. The obverse features Lady Liberty, facing to the left with her arm outstretched. Her other hand holds a bundle of laurel and oak, a symbol that embodies American pride. Stars and stripes adorn her gown, as she strides into the impending sunrise, visible in the lower left-hand corner. This patriotic design is based on Alfred A. Weinman’s popular artwork used on the Walking Liberty half dollar, introduced in 1916. “Liberty”, “In God We Trust” and the year are additionally engraved.  The reverse image was designed by John M. Mercanti, an American sculptor who acted as the U.S. Mint’s Chief Engraver until his retirement in 2010. A shielded eagle is depicted, holding an olive branch in one talon with arrows clutched in the other. In his beak he holds a banner with the phrase “E Pluribus Unum” or “Out of Many, One” inscribed. The eagle has long been an American symbol of pride, patriotism and prestige. Thirteen stars are seen overhead, representing the 13 original colonies. “United States of America”, “1 oz. Fine Silver” and “One Dollar” encircle the circumference. The diameter is 1.598 inches with reeded edging.   

The Composition

Easily one of the most popular silver coins in the world, the 1 oz Silver Eagle is composed of one troy ounce of .999 fine silver. Each coin measures 1.598 inches in diameter, complete with the familiar, reeded edging. The content and purity of all Silver Eagles is guaranteed by the United States Government.
