Each 2021-W 1 oz Proof American Silver Eagle Coin in this product listing earned a PF69 certification from the NGC. Coins with this grade are considered near-perfect specimens that exhibit full, original mint luster. However, the coins do possess a maximum of two minor detracting flaws that consist of minuscule contact marks or hairlines that must be located outside the primary focal points of the coin.
These particular 2021-W Proof Silver Eagles have two additional labels present within the slab. Included within the slab, you will find Ultra-Cameo and Early Release labels. The UCAM label points to the presence of strong, frosted designs and deeply-mirrored, clear background fields. The Early Release label means each coin was received for grading within 30 days of the original release from the US Mint.
The obverse of 2021-W 1 oz Proof American Silver Eagle Coins features the Walking Liberty design. Created by Adolph A. Weinman in 1916, the image of Liberty walking toward the sun on the horizon was first used on the US half dollar until 1947. In 1986, the US Mint revived the image for use on the national silver bullion coin.
On the reverse side of 2021-W Proof American Silver Eagles is the heraldic eagle of the United States. Originally designed in 1794 as an emblem for the national government, it has long featured on American coins. John Mercanti created this modern rendition of the seal in 1986 for the American Silver Eagle coins. This is the last time the heraldic eagle will feature on the Proof American Silver Eagle, with a new design slated for debut by the end of 2021.
