Eagle Silver Dollars are a great investment as a silver bullion coin. They are very popular with collectors and investors alike. The face of these dollars have the ‘walking’ Statue of Liberty. This is known as the ‘Hopeful Walking Liberty’ design by renowned sculptor/engraver Adolph Weinman.
The reverse side of these bullion coins have a striking heraldic eagle designed by John Mercanti. Silver American Eagle Dollars were first introduced in 1986 and have been produced ever year since. While the price for current year un-circulated silver eagles are very reasonable at around $28; the price starts climbing from there for proofs and lower year production runs. Even American Eagle Silver coins in good un-circulated condition are commanding a premium. Expect to pay slightly above the current silver bullion price for a recent year un-circulated silver eagles.
