  • Description:

    The Certified Uncirculated Silver Eagle 1988 coin is a notable addition to the American Silver Eagle series, which began in 1986 as a response to the growing demand for silver bullion. The series was designed to celebrate both the beauty and value of silver, providing investors and collectors with a reliable and high-quality investment vehicle. The 1988 Silver Eagle continues the tradition of this iconic series, reflecting the increasing popularity of silver as a precious metal during the late 20th century and its significance as a staple in the numismatic community.

    The design of the 1988 Silver Eagle features the classic Walking Liberty motif, originally crafted by Adolph A. Weinman for the 1916 Walking Liberty Half Dollar. The obverse presents a graceful image of Lady Liberty, depicted striding confidently forward, draped in the American flag, with the sun rising in the background. The inscriptions “LIBERTY” and “IN GOD WE TRUST” accentuate the symbolism of freedom and national pride. On the reverse, the bald eagle is prominently displayed, designed by John Mercanti, clutching an olive branch and arrows, representing strength and peace. The inscriptions “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” and “ONE DOLLAR” further establish the coin's status as legal tender and its connection to American heritage.

    This coin was minted at the West Point Mint, a facility known for its commitment to quality and precision in coin production. The 1988 Silver Eagle saw a total mintage of approximately 11 million coins, a significant number that reflects the ongoing interest in silver bullion during this period. 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 its appeal, as collectors seek out coins in the best possible condition for their collections.

    The Certified Uncirculated Silver Eagle 1988 MS69 coin is not only a striking representation of American artistry but also a valuable piece of history within the Silver Eagle series. Its iconic design, combined with its historical context and substantial mintage, makes it a sought-after item among collectors and investors. As part of the American Silver Eagle series, this coin embodies the spirit of American coinage and serves as a testament to the nation's dedication to producing high-quality bullion coins.
