 MORE ABOUT THE SILVER EAGLE COIN DEVELOPMENT 

 The US Mint had to narrow down a list of 35 possible designs for the new American Silver Eagle coin, taking place over the course of 2020. Finally, Emily Damstra’s design was chosen as the new reverse image on this collection. 

Emily gave this quote to the US Mint on the inspiration for her design:

The Secretary of US Treasury, Janet Yellow also made comments in their release video, stating: “The American Eagle bullion coins are the flagship bullion products of the U.S. Mint, and the new American Eagle bullion coin designs to mark this anniversary are really quite beautiful.” 

It was sculpted by former Mint Medallic Artist Michael Gaudioso and made from 1 ounce silver with inscriptions “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA”, “E PLURIBUS UNUM” (Latin meaning “one out of many”), “1 OZ. FINE SILVER”, and “$1.” A full video put out by the US Mint annoucing the new designs for the 2021 Silver Eagle can be found here. 

 This coin was  released Summer 2021. The only place to buy a new set of coins like this would be from the US Mint directly or an authorized dealer such as Scottsdale Mint.
