2021 (P) 1 oz American Silver Eagle Coin NGC MS70 FDOI (Philadelphia, Type 1, Bell Label)
The American Silver Eagle remains the most popular silver bullion coin in the world. To keep up with strong investor demand, the United States Mint has occasionally relied on more than one facility to strike Brilliant Uncirculated coins. In 2020, staffing challenges and operational delays tied to the COVID-19 pandemic, along with increased buying activity, led the Philadelphia Mint to produce emergency issues. This support continued into 2021. Right now, certified 2021 (P) 1 oz American Silver Eagle Coins with special Bell Labels are available at BGASC. **Highlights:** - **Arrives in a protective slab!** - **Features a Liberty Bell label!** - **Emergency issue from the Philadelphia Mint!** - Contains 1 troy oz of .999 pure silver. - Bears a face value of $1 (USD) backed by the federal government. - Issued a grade of Mint State 70 by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation. - First Day of Issue. - The obverse features Walking Liberty. - On the reverse is the original heraldic eagle design. - Type 1 specimen in 2021. - Last use of the John Mercanti reverse design. Each 2021 (P) 1 oz American Silver Eagle in this listing is sealed in a protective slab and includes a Liberty Bell label noting its Philadelphia Mint production. An MS70 grade indicates the coin shows full, original mint shine with no visible imperfections. First Day of Issue coins were delivered to NGC for grading within 24 hours of being released by the mint. **Obverse** On the obverse of the 2021 (P) Silver Eagle Coin is the familiar Walking Liberty design by Adolph A. Weinman. Liberty is shown walking toward the rising sun over a mountain range. Her right hand stretches forward, while her left arm holds oak and laurel branches. The American flag rests across her shoulders as she moves across the field. **Reverse** The reverse of the 2021 (P) 1 oz American Silver Eagle features the heraldic eagle design used on the original Type 1 coins. First introduced in 1794 by Robert Scot and later refined in 1986 by John Mercanti, the design shows an eagle positioned behind the national shield. The bird holds arrows in one talon and an olive branch in the other. **History** The Philadelphia Mint has helped produce Silver Eagles in prior years. During 1999 and 2000, it struck Brilliant Uncirculated coins to assist overall production. Starting in 2001, West Point handled the majority of American Eagle minting. When demand exceeds West Points output, other facilities step in. In both 2020 and 2021, Philadelphia struck emergency issues to maintain supply in the marketplace. **Ordering** If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
