2022 W SILVER AMERICAN EAGLE $1 NGC PF70 ULTRA CAMEO FIRST DAY OF ISSUE Gold Star Label

New The West Point Silver Eagle Proofs Take Flight In 2022!

Not only are American Silver Eagles stunning coins recognized around the world for their grace and beauty, they’re also the official silver coin of the United States. First released in 1986, the American Silver Eagle is one of the world’s leading silver coins and is among the most popular annual releases around the world. The coin’s popularity soared to even greater heights in 2021 thanks to its first design change in the coin’s history. That new design is back for 2022, ready to spread its wings into collections around the world with these beautiful Proof versions of the perennial classic!

America’s Most Iconic Symbols

This stunning silver coin is an American icon, proudly displaying the nation’s most popular symbols. It starts with the famous image designed by American sculptor Adolph Weinman for the Walking Liberty Half Dollar that was struck from 1916 to 1947. It features Lady Liberty striding proudly forward, her body draped in an American flag, as a new day dawns. The coin’s reverse is the work of Artistic Infusion Program (AIP) artist Emily Damstra and was sculpted by Mint Medallic Artist Michael Gaudioso. It displays a full image of a Bald Eagle coming in for a landing with an oak branch held in its talons as if to add to its nest.

Coveted Proof Versions from the West Point Mint

The Proof version of this spectacular coin has always featured razor-sharp details and impressive mirrored finishes. They are struck in the thousands compared to the millions for the bullion editions. And now you can order the 2022 proof version specially struck at the West Point Mint. If you’ve already acquired the 2022 Silver Eagle Proof struck at the San Francisco Mint and want to complete your collection, you’ll want to get one of these coins ASAP due to the fact that they are struck in smaller quantities than their counterparts from San Francisco Mint. That’s why you’ll need to act fast because who knows how long before these coins disappear into hands of other eager collectors!

Perfect Proof Silver Eagles

This 2022-S American Silver Eagle Proof was expertly crafted by the mint from hand-selected planchets, polished dies and multiple strikes to produce beautifully frosted details rising over mirror-like fields! In fact, each coin available here has been graded by the Numismatic Guaranty Company (NGC) as being in flawless Proof-70 Ultra Cameo (PF70UC) condition, a distinction that means these perfectly-graded proofs have ZERO imperfections—showing all features and fields exactly as the engraver and mint intended. In addition, NGC has certified that these Proofs are First Day of Issue (FDI) coins, a designation that means they were received by NGC or an NGC-approved depository by the release date or on the business day within 24 hours of the official release date. Plus, each will come sonically sealed in an acrylic holder with a black display core and encapsulated with an exclusive Gold Star label.
