Hello and welcome! For your consideration, I am proud to offer a 1986-S Proof Silver American Eagle Coin (PR-69 PCGS) sealed inside a clear capsule within the original burgundy velvet box. The U.S. Mint certificate of authenticity is also enclosed within the hinged box. The original outer, cardboard storage box is also included. The coin is in excellent condition.

THE HISTORY OF 1986-S 1 OZ SILVER AMERICAN EAGLE COIN:

The first American Eagle Silver coin was struck in San Francisco on October 29, 1986. The design on the 1986 1 oz Silver American Eagle obverse was taken from the “Walking Liberty” design by Adolph A. Weinman. The design on these Silver coins was originally seen on the Walking Liberty Half Dollar coin, which was minted between 1916 and 1947. Of the many designs on U.S. Silver coins, the Walking Liberty has been a longstanding public favorite, and as such, was brought back 70 years after its debut for use on the modern Silver Eagle coin.

Product Details:

The mirror-like finish on this Proof Silver American Eagle adds to the beauty of the beloved design. 1986 is the inaugural issue of the Proof Silver Eagle. This first year of issue Silver American Eagle makes a great addition to any Silver coin collection. Silver Eagles are treasured for their .999 fine Silver content, classic design and government guarantee.

Coin Highlights:

PCGS encapsulation protects the near perfect PR-69 condition of the coin.

Obverse: Adolph A. Weinman’s design showing Lady Liberty draped in an American flag, walking gracefully as the sun rises over a ridge.

PLEASE NOTE:  Most of the items I sell are from three generations of family heirlooms that we have no room for, while others belong to friends or relatives.  I do my best to research the items and attempt to describe them accurately using photos and text. Also, I will clean off the surface dirt but I usually won't attempt to polish or wash vintage items. Please keep in mind that most of what I sell is vintage and/or used and is not sold in ‘new off the shelf’ condition, even though the auction states that they are "new" (described as *in original box, never opened, but not in pristine condition*).

Photos are part of the description.  I try to post as many pictures as possible showing various angles.  We strive to describe and showcase, via photos, any defects or wear to our vintage items, so please review all of the pictures provided for full disclosure.  We do our best to describe any significant damages so that there will be no surprises upon their arrival.  Please be a smart and informed buyer. Please feel free to ask any and all questions you may have prior to bidding. Also, most of our items are vintage, which means they have been used.  Please remember when buying these vintage items, they have had a previous owner prior to reaching your home.  Please expect to find signs of wear, scuffs, dust, odors (smoke or mildew) or other minimal damage to items, unless otherwise noted.
