Its scarcity and unique Philadelphia origin make it a modern rarity, captivating collectors at Global Coin and beyond.
The Prestige of the “P” Mint Mark
Bearing the rare “P” mintmark of the Philadelphia Mint, this Silver Eagle signifies premium quality and exclusivity. Reverse proof coins from Philadelphia are struck in limited quantities for collectors, distinguishing them from standard issues. The “P” mintmark, combined with the coin’s low mintage and anniversary significance, marks it as a highly sought-after piece in the numismatic world.
Iconic American Design
This coin features two masterful designs that embody American heritage, enhanced by the reverse proof finish.
-
Obverse: Adolph A. Weinman’s Walking Liberty strides toward a rising sun, draped in an American flag, clutching laurel and oak branches. Inscriptions include “LIBERTY” above, “IN GOD WE TRUST” and “2011” framing her, with the “P” mintmark below. The reverse proof finish delivers a mirror-like Liberty against frosted fields, with PF70 examples showcasing flawless radiance and bold details.
-
Reverse: John Mercanti’s heraldic eagle grips arrows and an olive branch, a shield on its chest beneath 13 stars. Inscriptions read “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “1 OZ. FINE SILVER,” “ONE DOLLAR,” and “E PLURIBUS UNUM.” The reverse proof’s polished eagle and stars shine against a matte backdrop, with feathers and talons vivid in PF70 condition.
-
Edge: Reeded, complementing the coin’s striking contrast.
The reverse proof finish transforms the classic Silver Eagle designs, making Liberty and the eagle appear to float, with the PF70 grade ensuring a flawless, museum-quality appearance.
