American Eagle 1 oz Silver 2009
The American Eagle is one of the most recognisable silver bullion coins in the world. It is the flagship product from the United States Mint. Each piece containing the image of the personification of Liberty is struck from pure Ag.999 silver weighing one troy ounce. It is worth noting at this point that locally sourced bullion was used in the production of the silver coins.The American Eagle Silver Bu is a unique coin not only because of the high quality of its production, but also because it is a coin struck with the reverse stamp. This means that the obverse is reversed 180 degrees from the reverse. In addition, each silver eagle is a full-fledged legal tender that is guaranteed by the US government as to its legality, the purity of the bullion and the origin of the metal.The obverse depicts the personification of Liberty, a symbol of the United States and liberation, walking with the attributes of peace: an olive branch and a torch. At her feet, the seat of the US Congress can be seen, with the rays of the sun in the background. The obverse contains the maxim that was included in the Declaration of Independence - 'In God We Trust'. The image of the coin has remained unchanged since the very beginning of the minting of silver eagles - 1986. Adolph Weinman is responsible for the design. On the reverse a single Eagle is depicted coming in for a landing, carrying an oak branch as if to add it to the nest. The inscriptions: "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA", "E PLURIBUS UNUM", "1 OZ. FINE SILVER" and "ONE DOLLAR". The reverse was designed by John Mercanti. INDIVIDUAL PIECES ARE SHIPPED IN PLASTIC ROUND CAPS OR PLASTIC ENVELOPES.Projektant
