The Proof American Silver Eagle is the most popular collectible silver coin from the United States Mint. Introduced in 1986, it has missed only one date mark in the program’s history over the last four decades. Right now, 2008-W 1 oz Proof American Silver Eagle Coins in near-perfect condition are available to purchase online from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Each of the 2008-W 1 oz Proof American Silver Eagle Coins available here come in near-perfect condition. PR69 grades indicate coins that exhibit full, original mint luster with no more than two minor detractions. Those flaws must be located outside the primary focal points and are limited in nature to minuscule contact marks or hairlines.
The 2008 issue of the Proof American Silver Eagle Coin had a mintage of 700,979 coins in total. This represented a sizeable decline from the previous year, with many silver buyers turning to the BU version of the coin as the Great Recession started to drag down the global economy. While proof coinage dropped by 121,000 coins from 2007 to 2008, BU coinage jumped from 9 million to 20.5 million.
Walking Liberty is on the obverse of the 2008-W Proof American Silver Eagles. This design from Adolph A. Weinman features Liberty’s full-length figure in left-profile relief as she walks toward the sun on the horizon. The American flag is draped around her figure as she strides along.
The heraldic eagle is on the reverse of 2008-W 1 oz Proof Silver Eagle Coins. John Mercanti created this design in 1986 as a modernized version of the iconic national emblem. In the design, a front-facing eagle supports the US national shield while clutching the arrows of war and the olive branch of peace.
