Proof Silver Eagles debuted in 1986 alongside the BU version of the coin. While the BU Silver Eagle has been struck each year since the program’s debut, there is one date mark missing in the Proof Silver Eagle Series: 2009.
While the US Mint is legally obligated to strike the BU Silver Eagle to meet demand each year, there is no such mandate for the Proof Silver Eagle. At the height of the Great Recession, as demand was surging in 2009, the US Mint faced a shortage of silver blanks and had to divert all available blanks to the production of BU Silver Eagles, resulting in the missing date for Proof Silver Eagle.
Walking Liberty is on the obverse of 2024-W 1 oz Proof Silver Eagles. This design from 1916 was created by Adolph A. Weinman. Originally used on the US half dollar until 1947, it depicts the full-length figure of Liberty in left-profile relief with her right hand outstretched and the American flag draped around her figure.
A soaring bald eagle is on the reverse of 2024-W Proof American Silver Eagles. This was created in 2020 by Emily Damstra and debuted in mid-2021. The design shows the eagle swooping downward with up-swept wings and an oak branch in its talons.
These 2024-W 1 oz Proof American Silver Eagle Coins are available in near-perfect condition. PR69 coins showcase full, original mint luster and have a maximum of two minor detractions in the form of minuscule contact marks or hairlines. DCAM stands for deep-cameo proof and refers to the presence of strong, frosted designs and deeply mirrored, clear fields. First Strike indicates the coins were received for grading within 30 days of release by the mint.
