2001 American Silver Eagle - NGC Mint State 9.9
Offered here is an authentic 2001 American Silver Eagle, certified by NGC with a Mint State 9.9 grade.
The American Silver Eagle has been the official silver bullion coin of the United States since its introduction in 1986 and remains one of the most widely collected modern U.S. silver coins.
The obverse features Adolph A. Weinman's celebrated Walking Liberty design, originally introduced on the Walking Liberty Half Dollar in 1916. Liberty is depicted walking toward the rising sun while carrying branches of laurel and oak.
The reverse features John Mercanti's Heraldic Eagle design, depicting an eagle behind a shield with an olive branch and arrows in its talons and thirteen stars positioned above.
Struck in 99.9% pure silver, the coin contains one troy ounce of silver and carries a legal tender face value of one dollar.
This example is certified with a Mint State 9.9 grade, representing a near-perfect Mint State coin under the applicable 10-point grading scale. A 9.9 grade corresponds to MS-69 on the traditional 70-point Sheldon grading scale.
