Description

The 2010 American Silver Eagle dollar, graded MS 69 by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC), is a near-flawless example of America's flagship silver bullion coin series. Struck by the United States Mint in 1 troy oz of 0. 999 fine silver, this coin carries a $1 legal-tender face value and belongs to the longest-running silver bullion program in U. S. history, introduced in 1986. The obverse presents Adolph A. Weinman's beloved Walking Liberty design — originally debuted on the 1916 Walking Liberty half dollar — depicting Lady Liberty striding confidently toward the sunrise, draped in the American flag and carrying an olive branch. The reverse showcases John Mercanti's heraldic bald eagle with a shield on its breast, clutching an olive branch and arrows, surrounded by thirteen stars and the inscription "United States of America · 1 oz. Fine Silver · One Dollar. " Certified MS 69 by NGC, this coin exhibits virtually flawless surfaces with only the slightest imperfections allowable at this grade level. It rests in NGC's sonically sealed, tamper-evident holder bearing certification number 3375653-175, offering collectors a highly gradeable example of the 2010 issue.
