2011 Silver Eagle NGC MS-69 25th Anniversary

2011 American Silver Eagle - NGC MS-69 - 25th Anniversary

Offered here is an authentic 2011 American Silver Eagle, certified by NGC as MS-69 with 25th Anniversary attribution.

The 2011 Silver Eagle is a notable modern issue in the American Silver Eagle series. It was released in the program’s 25th anniversary year, marking a quarter century of continuous production since the first American Silver Eagle was issued in 1986.

The coin is certified in an NGC 25th Anniversary holder, a popular collecting distinction that ties this example to the landmark anniversary year rather than to a separate privy-marked or set-only variety.

The 2011 bullion Silver Eagle had a mintage of 40,020,000 coins, a high-production year that also saw the U.S. Mint issue a five-coin 25th Anniversary Silver Eagle Set for collectors.

The obverse features Adolph A. Weinman’s celebrated Walking Liberty design, originally introduced on the Walking Liberty Half Dollar in 1916. Liberty is shown striding toward the sunrise, draped in the American flag, with the date 2011 below.

The reverse features John Mercanti’s classic Heraldic Eagle design, depicting an eagle behind a shield with an olive branch and arrows in its talons and thirteen stars positioned above.

The coin was struck as a bullion issue and bears no mintmark. Standard 2011 business-strike Silver Eagles are commonly attributed to the West Point Mint.

Struck in 99.9% fine silver, the coin contains one troy ounce of silver and carries a legal tender face value of one dollar.

Graded MS-69 by NGC, this example has received a near-perfect mint-state grade, just one point below the highest numerical grade assigned by NGC.
