History of the 1995-P American Silver Eagle

The 1995-P American Silver Eagle is a valuable coin within a popular coin series. The American Silver Eagle series has some beautiful designs with a rich and controversial history. In the first two years of production, the coin caused quite a stir in certain communities because Lady Liberty had an exposed breast. That was later changed. 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.
