2017-W 1 Dollar 1-oz Silver Eagle Proof PCGS PF70 DCAM First Day of Issue

225 Years of Heritage Meets the Fourth Decade of Silver Eagle Proofs!

Ever since the United States Mint struck its first Silver Eagle Proofs in 1986, collectors have sought out these one-ounce, government-guaranteed, 99.9% pure silver coins for their own. The rebirth of Adolph A. Weinman's lush Walking Liberty, paired with the stoic gravitas of John Mercanti's heraldic eagle, took the numismatic world by storm.

These 2017-dated Silver Eagle Proofs hold a special place of honor in the series because they were struck in an important anniversary year for American coinage – the 225th anniversary of the U.S. Mint. From a small building on the corner of 7th and Arch Streets in Philadelphia, the U.S. Mint has grown to become one of the largest and most renowned mints in the world. This Silver Eagle Proof was struck at the U.S. Mint’s branch mint at West Point, New York during that important quasquibicentennial!

In addition to the key milestone date, your 2017-W Silver Eagle Proof has been graded by the Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS) as being in flawless Proof-70 Deep Cameo (PR70 DCAM) condition, a distinction that means your perfectly-graded proof will have ZERO imperfections – showing all features and fields exactly as the engraver and mint intended. What’s more, PCGS has also certified your proof as a First Day of Issue (FDI) coin, meaning it was received by PCGS by the release date or on the business day within 24 hours of the official release date. Collectors seek out proofs like this because they are produced with new dies and considered to have sharper strikes and deeper mirrors than those that are stuck later. Also, the population of Silver Eagle Proofs labeled First Day of Issue coins is only a fraction of the total mintage!

Proof Silver Eagles are traditionally struck in far fewer numbers than those minted for circulation. And, with 2017 being a big year for the United States Mint, we expect our supply of these Silver Eagle Proofs to quickly join collections across the country and around the world. Don't miss out on the party – order your 2017 Silver Eagle Proof today!
