About This Coin
The 1995 American Silver Eagle is a United States dollar from the American Silver Eagles 1986 to Date series — 10th of 41 years in the series. In 1995, coins were struck at the Philadelphia and West Point Mints with a combined mintage of 5.1 million. This ranks 3rd of 40 years by total mintage, below the series median of 11.8 million. The obverse features Liberty striding confidently toward the sunrise, draped in the American flag, carrying branches of laurel and oak symbolizing civil and military glory — Adolph Weinman's iconic design adapted from the Walking Liberty Half Dollar and the reverse displays a heraldic eagle behind a shield, designed by John M. Mercanti — the most reproduced coin image in history (1986-2020) or an eagle in flight carrying an oak branch, the redesigned reverse by Emily Damstra introduced in 2021 (2021+). The 1995-W Proof, included only in the 10th Anniversary Gold Eagle set, is the key date with approximately 30,125 struck. Struck in 99.93% silver, .007% copper, weighing 31.1 grams, 40.6 mm in diameter, with a reeded edge. Across its variants, estimated values range from $144 to $5.0K depending on mint mark, grade, and strike type. A notable auction result reached $87K in PR70 grade at Great Collections. Designed by Adolph A. Weinman/John Mercanti.
