  • Description:

    The Certified Uncirculated Silver Eagle 1987 coin is a significant entry in the American Silver Eagle series, which was first introduced by the United States Mint in 1986. This series was established to provide a bullion coin made from .999 fine silver, celebrating both the beauty of American coinage and the value of silver as a precious metal. The 1987 Silver Eagle holds a special place in the series, as it was released during a time when the demand for silver bullion was rising, driven by a growing interest among collectors and investors in precious metals as a hedge against inflation and economic uncertainty.

    The design of the 1987 Silver Eagle features a stunning rendition of the iconic Walking Liberty motif, which was originally created by Adolph A. Weinman for the 1916 Walking Liberty Half Dollar. The obverse showcases Lady Liberty gracefully striding forward, draped in the American flag, with the sun rising in the background. Surrounding her are the inscriptions “LIBERTY” and “IN GOD WE TRUST,” reinforcing the coin's symbolic connection to American values. The reverse side, designed by John Mercanti, depicts a powerful bald eagle with a shield, holding an olive branch and arrows, symbolizing peace and strength. The words “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” and the denomination “ONE DOLLAR” are inscribed, further highlighting the coin’s legal tender status and national pride.

    The 1987 Silver Eagle was minted at the West Point Mint, which has become synonymous with the production of high-quality American coins, particularly bullion and commemorative pieces. The total mintage for the 1987 coin reached approximately 11 million, making it one of the more widely produced Silver Eagles in the series. The certification of MS69 by the Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS) indicates that this particular coin is in nearly perfect condition, with only minute imperfections that are not visible to the naked eye. Such a high grade enhances the coin's desirability among collectors, as it exemplifies both beauty and preservation.

    The Certified Uncirculated Silver Eagle 1987 MS69 coin is not just a stunning representation of American artistry but also a symbol of the enduring popularity of silver bullion. Its rich history, combined with the iconic design and limited mintage, makes it a coveted item for collectors and investors alike. As part of the American Silver Eagle series, this coin embodies the spirit of American coinage and serves as a reminder of the nation’s heritage and commitment to producing high-quality precious metal coins. The combination of its excellent condition and significant historical context ensures that this coin remains a cherished addition to any collection.
