A Certificate of Authenticity with matching America250 branding is also included with each coin.

One of the most notable updates to the 2026 Proof Silver Eagle appears on the obverse. Just below Liberty’s feet, the coin displays a special dual date recognizing the nation’s 250th anniversary, with “1776–2026” clearly shown. Also found within the design field is a commemorative America250 privy mark. This privy features the Liberty Bell, with the number 250 engraved vertically to represent the anniversary.

The obverse of the 2026-W Proof American Silver Eagle showcases Adolph A. Weinman’s famous Walking Liberty design. This classic image presents Liberty in full-length profile as she moves toward the rising sun. She wears the American flag draped across her shoulders, symbolizing freedom and progress. Liberty reaches forward with her right hand, while her left hand holds branches of oak and laurel, representing strength and victory.

On the reverse of the 2026-W 1 oz Proof American Silver Eagle, collectors will find Emily Damstra’s modern portrayal of the American bald eagle. First introduced in 2021, this design shows the eagle in mid-flight as it descends with its wings lifted upward. The eagle carries a sturdy oak branch in its talons, a symbol often associated with endurance and national pride.
