Design and Inspiration:

Adolph A. Weinman's obverse design for the 2000 American Silver Eagle illustrates the spirited "Walking Liberty" half-dollar design, with Liberty majestically draped in the flag, progressing towards a bright future armed with symbols of honor and strength. This portrayal advances towards a sun emitting 13 rays, symbolic of the unity of the original colonies.

John Mercanti's reverse design depicts a stately heraldic eagle, encased by a liberty shield and clutching an olive branch and arrows in its talons, signifying peace and readiness, beneath 13 stars for the founding states. The eagle prominently displays the motto "E PLURIBUS UNUM" on a banner in its beak, underscoring the nation's dedication to unity amidst diversity. The inscriptions “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” and “1 OZ. FINE SILVER ~ ONE DOLLAR” encircle the design.

The 2000 version of the American Silver Eagle highlights the U.S. Mint's commitment to unparalleled artistry, capturing an essential piece of American numismatic tradition. Its detailed design and ample silver content make it a must-have for collectors and investors.

These US Mint 2000 American Silver Eagles, available as standard, non-graded coins, see their market valuation significantly outshine that of ordinary silver bullion coins.
