History of the 1994-P American Silver Eagle

When searching for a 1994-P American Silver Eagle, look for one that is well-struck with attractive surfaces. This coin can be found in Deep Cameo, and is worth the effort to find. The design on the reverse of the American Silver Eagle was inspired by the “Walking Liberty” design of the Walking Liberty Half Dollar that was designed by Adolph Weinman. It was one of the most beloved designs of all American coins and was revived for the American Silver Eagle coins. The reverse was designed by John Mercanti. It features the American Bald Eagle behind a shield. The eagle is holding arrows and an olive branch in its talons. Above the eagle are 13 five-pointed stars that represent the 13 original colonies.
