A Revolutionary Numismatic Innovation
Launched in 2025, the Coming to Life™ Collection reimagines iconic American coin designs in stunning 3D, and the Type 2 Silver Eagle marks its debut with a tribute to the modern eagle reverse. Released as a limited-edition commemorative, it showcases the evolution of the Silver Eagle series through patent-pending Beyond Relief™ technology. With a mintage of only 30, it sold out rapidly among discerning collectors. The Beyond Relief™ process, requiring collaboration with minting experts and specialized firms, transcends high-relief techniques to deliver intricate, dimensional details, celebrating the Type 2 eagle’s majestic form with unprecedented clarity and depth.
The Prestige of X-Mint™
Produced by X-Mint™, this Silver Eagle signifies premium innovation and rarity. X-Mint™ collaborates with former U.S. Mint engravers like Michael Gaudioso to realize visionary designs, blending hand-crafted artistry with cutting-edge technology. Partnering with the Oglala Lakota Sioux Nation as the issuing authority, combined with the coin’s minuscule mintage and historic significance, marks it as an ultra-rare and highly sought-after piece in the numismatic world.
Iconic American Design
This coin features two masterful designs that embody American heritage and resilience.
Obverse: Adolph A. Weinman’s Walking Liberty strides toward a rising sun, her gown flowing with stars and stripes, clutching laurel and oak branches. Inscriptions include “LIBERTY” above, “IN GOD WE TRUST” and “2025” framing her. The Beyond Relief™ finish delivers a sculpted, 3D Liberty leaping from the surface against an antique proof backdrop, her figure radiant and bold.
Reverse: Emily Damstra’s Type 2 Bald Eagle soars with an olive branch, its wings outstretched in powerful flight. Inscriptions read “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “5 OZ. FINE SILVER,” and “ONE DOLLAR.” The Beyond Relief™ finish sculpts the eagle in vivid 3D against a matte antique field, with feathers and talons crisp and lifelike.
Edge: Reeded, complementing the coin’s striking contrast.
The Beyond Relief™ finish reimagines the Type 2 design, with Liberty and the eagle emerging in a dynamic, elegant tribute to American numismatic excellence.
