Struck in Silver and Layered with 24-Karat Gold, an American Icon Shines!

For many collectors, the American Silver Eagle is a coin that needs no introduction. Over three decades, this phenomenal combination of classic and modern design has developed a passionate worldwide following. As beautiful as they are, however, there's been a feeling that these beloved coins could benefit from one more touch. Fortunately, we've discovered just the Silver Eagles we've been looking for – beautiful Brilliant Uncirculated 2018 Silver Eagles with a stunning selective layer of 24-karat gold!

• WEINMAN'S LIBERTY WALKS . . . – Gracing the United States half dollar from 1916 to 1947, Adolph A. Weinman's lyrical Walking Liberty made a triumphant return for the Silver Eagle's debut in 1986, holding her feature role on the coin's obverse ever since.

• . . . WHILE MERCANTI'S EAGLE SOARS! – Opposite Lady Liberty on the Silver Eagle's reverse is the coin's namesake heraldic eagle, designed by acclaimed (and highly prolific) coin designer John Mercanti.

• BORN FROM HIGHLY PURE SILVER . . . – Each of these incredible coins began as one-ounce planchets of 99.9% fine silver, transformed by the artisans of the U.S. Mint into Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) coins of superb quality and detail.

• . . . AND CROWNED WITH GORGEOUS GOLD! – After these Silver Eagles left the U.S. Mint, a team of independent craftspeople carefully took each coin and expertly applied a selective layer of 24-karat gold to the field of each side and around the coin's entire edge. The result leaves the designs of both Weinman and Mercanti with their original silvery finish, now framed by backgrounds of lustrous gold.

• U.S. LEGAL TENDER – Each 2018 Gilded Silver Eagle coin is still one dollar United States of America legal tender – not that you'd want to spend these works of art!

• PHENOMENAL PACKAGING – Your 2018 Gilded Silver Eagle will arrive to you in a protective acrylic capsule inside a clamshell presentation case. In addition, you'll receive a certificate of authenticity.
