American Silver Eagle coins are available from the United States Mint on an annual basis. Originally available in bullion and proof versions only, the mint added a burnished coin in 2006 for the 20th anniversary of the coin’s release. The 2017 issue coins come off the successful 2016 release of 30th anniversary coins in the American Silver Eagle collection.
All 2017 1 oz American Silver Eagle Coins listed here from JM Bullion are in perfect condition. Coins in MS70 condition have full, original mint luster and lack all detracting flaws of any kind on the surface areas.
Early Release designation coins are those which have been received by the NGC or an approved third-party depository within the opening 30 days of issue by the US Mint. The coins must be received for certification within this window to qualify for the ER designation.
The obverse of all American Silver Eagle coins bears the image of Walking Liberty. Created in 1916 by Adolph A. Weinman during a revolution in American coin design, Walking Liberty originally featured on the Walking Liberty Half Dollar until 1947.
On the reverse of the 2017 American Silver Eagle coin you’ll find the heraldic eagle of the US. This classic design was modernized for this release by John Mercanti, who refined this design in 1986 and served as Chief Engraver of the US Mint from 1986 to 2010.
All American Silver Eagle coins are produced by the United States. While these bullion coins feature no mint marks, the West Point Mint handles the bulk of production, along with the San Francisco Mint, which now provides secondary bullion production to support the immense demand for these coins.
