Bullion Exchanges is pleased to offer the 1987 1 oz Silver American Eagle $1 Coin, certified NGC MS 69, just one point shy of perfection. Struck by the United States Mint, this second-year issue of America’s official silver bullion coin contains 1 troy ounce of .999 fine silver and holds a face value of $1, fully backed by the U.S. government. The coin is encapsulated in an official NGC holder, preserving its near-flawless condition and long-term value.

Introduced in 1986, the American Silver Eagle quickly became one of the world’s most trusted and recognizable silver bullion programs. The 1987 release marks the second year of this iconic series, maintaining the timeless design that collectors and investors have cherished for decades. The obverse features Adolph A. Weinman’s Walking Liberty, originally used on the half dollar from 1916–1947, symbolizing liberty in motion. The reverse showcases John Mercanti’s heraldic eagle, a powerful emblem of American strength and national pride.

Holding a grade of MS 69 (Mint State 69) from NGC, this coin exhibits exceptional eye appeal and strike quality with only the slightest, nearly imperceptible imperfections. For collectors seeking high-quality early-date Silver Eagles or investors looking to add graded silver to their portfolios, the 1987 MS 69 is an ideal balance between affordability and premium condition. Its early mintage date, limited surviving population in high grades, and historical significance within the Silver Eagle program make it a compelling piece for anyone building a foundational U.S. bullion collection.
