2024-(P) American Silver Eagle - NGC MS-70 - Star Privy First Releases
Offered here is an authentic 2024-(P) American Silver Eagle with Star Privy, struck at the Philadelphia Mint and certified by NGC as MS-70 First Releases.
The 2024-(P) Star Privy Silver Eagle is one of the most notable modern issues in the American Silver Eagle series. It was released as a limited Philadelphia bullion variety distinguished by a star privy mark, making it one of the first widely collected privy-marked business-strike Silver Eagles of the Type 2 era.
The coin features a distinctive star privy mark on the obverse. The privy is the defining feature of this special issue and separates it from the regular 2024 bullion Silver Eagle.
The 2024-(P) Star Privy Silver Eagle had a mintage limit of 500,000 coins, making it one of the lower-mintage modern bullion Silver Eagles and a highly recognizable variety.
The obverse features Adolph A. Weinman’s celebrated Walking Liberty design, originally introduced on the Walking Liberty Half Dollar in 1916 and refreshed in 2021. The star privy mark appears within the obverse field as the defining feature of this special issue.
The reverse features Emily Damstra’s Type 2 eagle design, introduced in 2021, depicting a bald eagle approaching a landing with an oak branch in its talons. Type 2 coins also include a reeded-edge variation as an added security feature.
The coin was struck as a bullion issue at the Philadelphia Mint and bears no mintmark. It is attributed as a 2024-(P) Star Privy strike.
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-70 by NGC, this example has received the highest numerical mint-state grade assigned by NGC. The First Releases designation recognizes that the coin was received by NGC or an NGC-approved depository within the first 30 days of release.
