American Silver Eagle Bullion Coin

Background

The American Silver Eagle Bullion Coin was first minted in 1986 under the visionary Liberty Coin Act. This official silver bullion coin displays Adolph A. Weinman’s iconic Walking Liberty design from 1916. Despite its nominal face value being only $1, the coin, boasting a remarkable 99.9% purity, has its true intrinsic value closely tied to the daily spot price of silver. Born from a strategic surplus of military silver reserves under Reagan’s administration, the American Silver Eagle has become one of the symbols of the US coinage and a valuable addition to one’s investment portfolio.
