Obverse

Walking Liberty is found on the obverse of 2005-W Proof American Eagle Silver Coins. This image was created for the US half dollar in 1916 by Adolph A. Weinman. The image shows Liberty in left-profile relief as she walks across the design element toward the sun on the horizon. The inscriptions include Liberty, In God We Trust, and 2005.

Reverse

The heraldic eagle of the United States is featured in the reverse design of 2005-W Proof American Eagle 1 oz Silver Coins. The design was developed by John Mercanti in 1986 and shows the bald eagle supporting the US national shield. The eagle clutches the olive branch of peace in one talon and the arrows of war in the other. There is a triangular cluster of 13 stars overhead. Inscriptions on this side of the coin read United States of America, E Pluribus Unum, 1 oz. Fine Silver – One Dollar, and the W mint mark of the West Point Mint.
