The reverse features the modern Type 2 bald eagle design. The Mint created the Reverse Proof specifically for collectors who want more than just bullion.
While tens of millions of regular Silver Eagles are struck for investors, the Reverse Proof is made in far smaller numbers with a special finish that turns it into a true numismatic piece - pure silver with serious eye appeal. Reverse Proof coins are struck differently from both regular bullion and traditional proofs. Specially prepared dies and planchets. Fields (background) highly polished to a deep mirror finish. Raised devices eagle, lettering, etc. Struck multiple times under higher pressure for razor-sharp detail. This is the opposite of a regular proof - and the result is a dramatic visual "pop" that makes every detail stand out.With only 891,250 coins struck, this is a limited-run piece compared to the massive mintages of standard bullion Silver Eagles the same year. Scarcer numbers + special finish = stronger collector demand. Composition: 1 full troy ounce of. Reverse: Type 2 bald eagle landing on a branch. My shop has it all - quality coins, bullion, and historical treasures.
Thanks for looking - happy collecting!
