The story behind 2026 Silver American Eagle – BU
The American Silver Eagle began in 1986, pairing physical silver with Adolph A. Weinman’s Walking Liberty design from the 1916 half dollar. It gives a modern bullion coin a direct artistic connection to earlier American circulating coinage. The later reverse depicts an eagle coming in to land with an oak branch.
