Red, White & Blue Silver American Eagle
The silver American Eagle in red, white and blue makes a perfect gift for the patriot in your family. Each coin is an official silver American Eagle bullion coin brought to life with radiant color by the Perth Mint in Australia.
Design of the Silver American Eagle
Each Red, White, & Blue American Eagle is an authentic Silver American Eagle. The image of "Walking Liberty," located on the obverse (front), first debuted in 1916 on the Walking Liberty Half-Dollar.
The reverse (back), designed by John Mercanti, depicts a heraldic eagle with shield carrying an olive branch and arrows in its talons. An inverse pyramid of thirteen stars representing the thirteen original colonies floats above its head. The words "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA ' 1 OZ. FINE SILVER ~ ONE DOLLAR '" encircle the eagle.
