Proof American Silver Eagle coins feature the same designs as the bullion version of the coin and were introduced in the same year, 1986. Bullion and proof Silver Eagles have been issued since that time, with the only exception being the 2009 Proof Silver Eagle that was canceled to ensure the US Mint could meet the demand for bullion coins amid surging silver prices.
John Mercanti designed the heraldic eagle for the reverse of the Silver Eagle Series in 1986. Mercanti began his US Mint career as an engraver and artist at the Philadelphia Mint in the 1970s and ended his US Mint career in 2010 as the 12th Chief Engraver of the United States Mint. Adolph A. Weinman created the Walking Liberty design on the obverse in 1916 for the US half-dollar coin.
The obverse of 2019 Proof American Silver Eagle Coins features Weinmans image of Walking Liberty. This design is similar in appearance to the sower found on French coinage in the 19th century. Here, Lady Liberty walks toward the sun on the horizon with one arm outstretched and the American flag over her shoulders.
On the reverse of 2019-W 1 oz Proof American Silver Eagle Coins is the design of the heraldic eagle of the US. Originally featured on the first American coins in 1794 and designed by Robert Scot, the image was modernized for these coins in 1986 with a powerful bird and strong US shield.
These 2019-W 1 oz Proof American Silver Eagles are near-perfect specimens with PR69 certifications. This indicates the coins showcase full, original mint luster with a maximum of two minor detracting flaws. Those flaws are limited to minuscule contact marks or hairlines. UCAM coins are ultra-cameo specimens with frosted designs and mirrored background fields. The Early Release label is for coins the NGC receives within 30 days of the US Mints 2019 release date for Proof Silver Eagles.
