2021 1 Oz American Silver Eagle Type 1 BU

Obverse: The design on the coin's obverse was taken from the "Walking Liberty" design by Adolph A. Weinman, which originally had been used on the Walking Liberty Half Dollar coin of the United States from 1916 to 1947. As this iconic design had been a public favorite—and one of the most beloved designs of any United States coinage of modern times, silver or otherwise—it was revived for the Silver Eagle decades later. Above the central image of the Walking Liberty is inscribed the word "LIBERTY". The motto of "IN GOD WE TRUST" is inscribed on the lower right. The year of issue can be found directly below the central image.

Reverse: The reverse was designed by John Mercanti and portrays a heraldic eagle behind a shield; the eagle grasps an olive branch in its right talon and arrows in its left talon, echoing the Great Seal of the United States; above the eagle are thirteen five-pointed stars representing the Thirteen Colonies. The reverse is inscribed with the phrases "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" above the eagle and "1 OZ. FINE SILVER~ONE DOLLAR" below it. The motto "E PLURIBUS UNUM" is inscribed on the banner that the eagle holds in its beak.
