2021 Silver Eagle (Type 2) MS-70 PCGS (First Day of Production)
The year 2021 marked a significant transition for the United States American Eagle coin program, introducing a brand new reverse design midway through the year. This particular specimen represents the very first day of production for the updated Type 2 style, which occurred on May 5, 2021. On this inaugural day of minting, a limited run of 19,000 coins was produced, making these initial strikes a notable chapter in modern numismatic history. Crafted from one troy ounce of 0.999 fine silver, this coin has been certified in perfect Mint State 70 (MS-70) condition. The obverse showcases the classic artwork of Adolph A. Weinman, featuring the date 2021 and the motto IN GOD WE TRUST. This timeless imagery is paired with the newly introduced reverse design by Emily Damstra, which was sculpted by Michael Gaudioso. The reverse inscriptions clearly display the issuing nation, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, alongside the traditional motto E PLURIBUS UNUM, the legal tender value of ONE DOLLAR, and the weight designation 1 OZ. FINE SILVER.
