Spectacularly
Enhanced
Silver American Eagles

Embellished
with eye-catching colors, and holograms that prismatically reflect
every color of the rainbow, these Silver American Eagles have
become extremely popular and are being widely collected
by a new generation of enthusiasts. The process of adding color
or shimmering hologram effects has been developed in the private
sector. Composed of 99.93% silver, weighing 31.01 grams, and containing
exactly one ounce of silver, this is the largest and heaviest
U.S. silver coin ever minted.
The United States began minting these one-ounce silver coins in
1986, using a patriotic design originally created for the U.S.
half dollar in 1916, as America prepared to enter World War I.

The
obverse shows Lady Liberty striding toward the rising sun,
wearing a gown which consists of a swirling, billowing American
Flag. On the reverse is a classic rendition
of the American eagle, holding a sheaf of arrows in one
talon and an olive branch in the other. Streaming from its
beak is a ribbon with the motto, E Pluribus Unum,
which means, Out of Many, One. Above the eagle
are thirteen stars representing the original colonies.
Each spectacular coin comes in its own air-tight protective
capsule, and if you wish to order them as gifts, we recommend
the handsome plush presentation cases and boxes shown below.

These
plush blue presentation cases are perfect for showing
off and preserving your collection of enhanced silver
American Eagles. Each sturdy case holds five encapsulated
silver Eagles, so you can keep all five coins for each
year in one single, beautiful box. If you order any of
the five-coin year sets minted from 2004 to 2006 you can
get the display case absolutely free when you order all
five coins at once (see the final column in the chart
below for item numbers and prices). By the way, these
sets make truly spectacular gifts!
If you are collecting just one of the five types of enhanced
silver American Eagles, you can order these convenient
and attractive cases separately,
and fill them up one coin at a time as your collection
grows. Prices for the individual presentation cases are
shown below. |
