On the obverse of the 2026 1 oz Silver Eagle is Adolph A. Weinman’s famous Walking Liberty design. First introduced on the half dollar in 1916, this image shows Liberty walking toward the sunrise in full-length profile. She wears the American flag around her shoulders, reaches forward with her right hand, and carries branches of oak and laurel in her left.

The reverse of the 2026 American Silver Eagle features Emily Damstra’s bald eagle design. First issued in 2021 after being created in 2020, the scene shows the eagle coming in to land with its wings spread wide. In its talons, the eagle holds an oak branch.

Cupcakes are a classic part of birthday celebrations because they’re easy to share and don’t require slicing or serving a full cake. Their popularity grew quickly in the early 2000s as cupcake shops and bakeries started offering more detailed decorating styles, bright frosting colors, and themed toppers. You’ll often see them brought to school parties for easy classroom treats, while adult gatherings might feature richer flavors like red velvet or salted caramel. With so many ways to customize them, cupcakes fit birthdays for kids and adults alike.

These 2026 1 oz American Silver Eagle Coins come individually sealed in a cupcake-themed birthday presentation card. The front design includes a cupcake topped with a single lit candle set into the frosting. A printed “Happy Birthday to You” message appears on the front to complete the look.
