First 2021 American Eagle to Land in January

Not only is the 2021 one-ounce silver proof American Eagle the first Eagle to launch in the new year with an issue date of Jan. 7, but also, after 35 years, the reverse of this iconic coin is getting a makeover later in the year. Don’t miss your chance to purchase the final edition of the coin with its original reverse design. For some collectors, this will be the opportunity to complete their collection with the last of this original design minted at the West Point Mint.

The reverse features a heraldic eagle with shield, an olive branch in the right talon and arrows in the left.

Each coin bears the “W” mintmark and is packaged in a blue velvet, satin-lined presentation case accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.
