First issued in 1986, the American Silver Eagle has become far and away the most collected modern silver coin in the World! Each Silver Eagle is struck from 1oz of .999 fine silver. The obverse design features a modern rendition of Adolph A. Weinman's classic Lady Liberty and the reverse features a heraldic eagle with a shield. The reverse was designed by legendary coin designer and the 12th Chief Engraver of the U.S. Mint John Mercanti! The Burnished Silver Eagle, which was introduced in 2006, has become a favorite among savvy U.S. coin collectors due it being the rarest of the 3 regularly issued Silver Eagle varieties. This 2020 W $1 Burnished Silver Eagle was struck at the West Point Mint and has been certified a near perfect MS69 by NGC!
