Minted 1986 to date
Accepted Third Party Grading Services: NGC - PCGS - ICG - ANACS
First issued in 1986, this large-size pure silver dollar design was based on the Walking Liberty Half, first issued in 1916. Mintages for this series are quite low by today's standards, and mintage numbers for the PROOF issues are considerably lower still. Proof Silver Eagles exhibit highly polished, mirror surfaces and are some of the most exquisitely beautiful coins struck today by the U.S. Mint. Depending on the date and variety, Silver Eagles are struck at the Philadelphia, San Francisco and West Point mints. An exciting set to collect, with a wide range of types of coins and various holders. Collect them all today!
