About This Coin
The 1999 American Silver Eagle is a United States dollar from the American Silver Eagles 1986 to Date series. In 1999, proof Silver Eagles were struck at the Philadelphia Mint; published sources differ on where the bullion coins were struck (Philadelphia and West Point, or West Point alone). 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 design adapted from the Walking Liberty Half Dollar and the reverse displays a heraldic eagle behind a shield, designed by John M. Mercanti. Struck in .999 fine silver, weighing 31.1 grams, 40.6 mm in diameter, with a reeded edge. Designed by Adolph A. Weinman/John Mercanti.
