1987 American Eagle 1 oz Fine Silver Dollar
1987 American Eagle 1 oz Fine Silver Dollar
This 1987 American Eagle contains 1 oz of fine silver, as explicitly struck on the reverse of the coin. The obverse features Adolph A. Weinman’s iconic Walking Liberty design, showcasing Lady Liberty draped in the American flag, walking toward the rising sun. The reverse displays a heraldic eagle with a shield, clutching an olive branch and arrows, designed by John Mercanti. This particular specimen exhibits distinct natural golden-amber toning along the upper right periphery of the obverse and the lower right edge of the reverse, adding unique character to the silver surface. A second-year issue of the popular bullion series, this coin remains a staple for collectors seeking classic United States coinage minted in .999 fine silver.
