2023 American Silver Eagle Bullion Coin

This is a 2023 American Silver Eagle, the official investment-grade silver bullion coin of the United States. The coin is composed of one troy ounce of .999 fine silver. The obverse features Adolph A. Weinman's iconic 'Walking Liberty' design, showing Lady Liberty draped in the American flag, striding toward a rising sun while carrying branches of laurel and oak. The word 'LIBERTY' is inscribed across the top curve, with the year '2023' at the bottom and the national motto 'IN GOD WE TRUST' to the right. The coin exhibits a brilliant uncirculated (BU) finish with a crisp strike and sharp frosting on the raised elements. It is currently housed in a protective clear acrylic capsule with a black foam ring insert to prevent rim wear and environmental oxidation. While the coin appears to be in excellent condition, there are some faint surface smudges or potentially minor milk spots visible in the right field area near the motto, which is common for modern bullion. The reeded edge is protected by the case, and the craftsmanship reflects the high production standards of the United States Mint. This specific Type 2 design includes the refreshed detailing on Liberty's dress and the sun's rays introduced in mid-2021. This item represents a standard modern piece of numismatic bullion valued for its precious metal content and iconic design.
