The story behind the design
Silver American Eagle
Walking Liberty was designed by sculptor Adolph A. Weinman and first appeared on the half dollar in 1916. It was struck until 1947 and is remembered as one of the most graceful designs of its era.
Liberty walks toward the rising sun with a U.S. flag draped around her shoulders like a cape. She carries branches of laurel and oak, symbols of civil and military glory. The sense of motion in the figure is what made the design famous.
In 1986 the U.S. Mint revived Walking Liberty for the front of its new American Eagle silver coin. The back originally showed a heraldic eagle with a shield; since 2021 it has shown an eagle coming in to land, carrying an oak branch.
Our Silver American Eagle tribute recreates Walking Liberty and the landing eagle as a collectible replica with a silver-tone finish.
