The American Eagle Silver and Gold programs reached an important milestone in 2021 when the United States Mint introduced new reverse designs. Because the update took place in the middle of the year, two different reverse designs were produced for the 2021 Silver Eagle. One release continued with the original reverse, while the other introduced the new artwork. This special 2-Coin Designer Set brings both versions together in a reverse proof finish. Right now, certified 2021 Reverse Proof American Silver Eagle 2-Coin Designer Sets are available from BullionMax.

Each 2021 Reverse Proof American Silver Eagle 2-Coin Designer Set is housed in a two-coin slab and comes with near-perfect PF69 certifications. A PF69 grade indicates full, original mint luster with no more than two small imperfections. These minor flaws may include tiny contact marks or faint hairlines located outside the main focal areas of the design. The reverse proof finish offers frosted design elements set against mirrored backgrounds, creating a sharp contrast on both coins.

In 2020, the United States Mint selected Emily Damstra’s soaring bald eagle as the new reverse design for the Silver Eagle. Her artwork was chosen from a group of more than 35 design submissions reviewed by the Mint. Damstra has worked with both the Royal Canadian Mint and the United States Mint and participates in the Mint’s Artistic Infusion Program.

The obverse of the coins in the 2021 Reverse Proof American Silver Eagle 2-Coin Designer Set showcases the classic Walking Liberty image. Designed by Adolph A. Weinman in 1916, this design first appeared on the Walking Liberty Half Dollar and remains one of the most recognized images in American coinage.

The reverse of the 2021 Reverse Proof American Silver Eagle Designer Set coins features two different designs. The Type 1 coin displays John Mercanti’s heraldic eagle, while the Type 2 coin presents Damstra’s updated soaring bald eagle.
