American Silver Eagle bullion coins debuted from the US Mint in 1986. The official silver bullion coin of the US, the coins are available in bullion, proof, and burnished versions with the iconic designs of Walking Liberty and the heraldic eagle of the United States. While some investors and collectors balk at paying high premiums, SilverTowne makes it easier to obtain those designs.
The 2018 5 oz SilverTowne US Eagle Replica Silver Round is a medallion silver piece that mimics the look of the American Silver Eagle on a much larger blank. These rounds have a much lower premium and are struck with no mintage caps ever set.
On the obverse of the Silvertowne US Eagle Replica Silver Round is Adolph A. Weinman’s Walking Liberty design. This famous American coin design was created in 1916 and depicts Liberty as she walks toward the setting sun on the horizon. She is a guiding figure for America, wearing the American flag over her shoulders and walking toward a brighter future at all times. Engravings on this face include “Liberty,” a year of issue as “2018,” and the national motto of “In God We Trust.”
The reverse of 2018 5 oz SilverTowne US Eagle Replica Silver Rounds features John Mercanti’s heraldic eagle design. Created originally in 1794, the heraldic eagle has been updated throughout the years to modernize its appearance. Mercanti created the most recent refinement in 1986 for use on the American Silver Eagle coins. This design includes unique engravings of “Silver Bullion Round” and “5 Troy oz .999 Fine Silver” in place of the Silver Eagle’s use of a nation of issue and face value.
SilverTowne is a private American minting operation in Winchester, Indiana. What started as a small coin shop in 1949 has grown to become one of America’s greatest private mints. In addition to Silver Eagle designs, you’ll find the Buffalo Nickel and Liberty Bell designs from SilverTowne on silver rounds as well!
