Produced by the highly respected West Point Mint, this 2016 burnished silver coin stands as a testament to American craftsmanship and numismatic excellence. As a perfect MS70 specimen certified by NGC, this piece carries not only exceptional beauty but also remarkable value both for collectors and investors alike. Drawing from the storied history of the Silver Eagle series, this coin merges the allure of precious metals with the artistry of its design. Fashioned from one troy ounce of .999 fine silver, these pieces are prized for their combination of tangible intrinsic value and captivating aesthetic appeal.
The legendary design of this annual series features the beloved Walking Liberty, a creation of renowned sculptor Adolph A. Weinman. Enveloped in a radiant morning sun, Lady Liberty strides confidently towards the future, draped in the folds of the American flag. This emblematic image, originally appearing on the half-dollar coin in the early 20th century, embodies the spirit of freedom and progress. The obverse is complemented by John Mercanti’s heraldic eagle on the reverse, a powerful national symbol guarding a shield with arrows and an olive branch. Elements like these underscore not just artistic vision but the cultural heritage invested within each coin.
Forged with meticulous care, this example of a burnished silver piece undergoes a unique minting process where the blanks are polished before striking, granting it an eye-catching matte surface. The "W" mint mark signals its prestigious origin from the West Point Mint, further enhancing its desirability and affirming its high standards of craftsmanship. As a celebrated item in both numismatic circles and bullion markets, these pristine specimens are coveted for their impeccable production and their certification as MS70—a grade indicating a flawless appearance.
