Each coin is set to feature the same design as last year and will contain 1 troy ounce of .999 pure silver with a $1 USD face value.

As the official silver bullion coin of the United States, the Silver Eagle has enjoyed a significant degree of popularity among both collectors and investors alike. Soon, the United States Mint will present next year’s 2015 collection of American Silver Eagle Coins.

The Design (1986 to 2021) – Beginning in 2021 Type II was introduced where the reverse side of the coin was changed.
The obverse (front) of the coin was taken from the “Walking Liberty”, originally designed by Adolph A. Weinman, in 1916. The iconic design had already been a public favorite and one of the most beloved of any United States coinage of modern times which made it an instant favorite among collectors and enthusiasts once released. The reverse (back) was designed by John Mercanti that portrayed a heraldic eagle behind a shield the eagle holds a banner in its beak while grasping an olive branch in its right talon and arrows in its left, that echoes the Great Seal of the United States. Above the eagle and below the legend is thirteen five-pointed stars representing the original Thirteen Colonies.
