Those flaws are limited to minuscule contact marks or hairlines that must be located outside of the primary focal points of the coin.
The 2006 issue of American Silver Eagle coins included a three-coin set to mark the 20th anniversary of the series. This set included a traditional Proof Silver Eagle coin from the West Point Mint, the new Burnished Silver Eagle coin from the West Point Mint, and these limited-issue Reverse Proof Silver Eagles from the Philadelphia Mint.
On the obverse of the 2006-P Reverse Proof American Silver Eagle is Walking Liberty from Adolph A. Weinman. The image depicts Liberty walking in left-profile relief toward the sun on the horizon. Her right hand reaches out for the sun on the horizon as her left hand carries branches of oak and laurel. The American flag is draped over her shoulders.
The reverse of 2006-P 1 oz Reverse Proof American Silver Eagle coins includes the modern rendition of the heraldic eagle of the United States. Modified for this series by John Mercanti, it depicts the American bald eagle with the national shield on its chest, arrows in one talon, and an olive branch in the other. Above its head is a cluster of 13 stars in a triangle.
These 2006-P American Silver Eagle coins are reverse proof specimens. A reverse proof coin has frosted background fields with raised, mirrored design elements.
