2021-W 1 oz Burnished Silver American Eagle Type 2 NGC MS 70 ER
Bullion Exchanges now offers the 2021-W 1 oz Burnished Silver American Eagle Type 2 NGC MS 70 ER. This certified coin contains 1 troy ounce of .999 fine silver. Each of these Silver Eagles arrives with a Burnished finish, meaning the planchets were polished before the coins were struck, giving the finished product a “matte” appearance. Burnished Silver Eagles are produced by the West Point Mint, and therefore have a “W” mint mark on the reverse. This Type 2 Silver Eagle has been graded as a perfect MS 70 by NGC with an Early Releases designation, which indicates it was received for grading within 30 days of the coin’s official release from the mint. Additionally, these are the very first burnished Type 2 Silver Eagles ever produced, making them a desirable collector coin. Make sure to buy yours today!
The obverse showcases a design created by the student of Augustus Saint-Gaudens, Adolph A. Weinman. Known as the “Walking Liberty”, this design first appeared on Silver Half Dollars in 1916. On the Type 2 Silver Eagle, elements of this iconic obverse design have been modified to more closely resemble the original illustration. Liberty walks forward with her right arm outstretched, holding branches in her left arm. The U.S. flag billows behind her with the sun rising in the background.
The reverse displays the new reverse design by artist Emily Damstra. A bald eagle flies through the air while carrying an oak branch. It appears to be coming in for a landing with its wings outstretched.
