Obverse

Walking Liberty is an iconic American coin design that first debuted in 1916 and was originally used on the US Half Dollar. It has been the face of the Proof American Eagle 1 oz Silver Coin since it was introduced in 1986. The design features Liberty in left-profile relief with her right hand reaching out for the horizon and her left hand carrying branches of oak and laurel. The design includes the American flag draped over her shoulders.

Reverse

The heraldic eagle of the United States is one of the oldest, most consistent designs in American coining history. Since 1986 it has served as the reverse design element for the Proof American Eagle 1 oz Silver Coin. Modified for this series in 1986, the heraldic eagle featured here depicts the bald eagle with the US national shield on its chest, arrows of war in one talon, and an olive branch of peace in the other.
