Description

The 2025 (W) American Silver Eagle - Laser Beam Privy Mark represents a West Point Mint issue from the American Silver Eagles 1986 to Date series. The U.S. Mint produced 99,297 examples, making this ranked 2nd of 7 mint variants by mintage, with less than 1% of production. The obverse features Liberty striding confidently toward the sunrise, draped in the American flag, carrying branches of laurel and oak symbolizing civil and military glory — Adolph Weinman's iconic design adapted from the Walking Liberty Half Dollar and the reverse displays a heraldic eagle behind a shield, designed by John M. Mercanti — the most reproduced coin image in history (1986-2020) or an eagle in flight carrying an oak branch, the redesigned reverse by Emily Damstra introduced in 2021 (2021+). A modern issue from an era of rotating coin designs, collector-focused programs, and renewed interest in numismatic artistry. Coined at the West Point Mint, which transitioned from bullion depository to a dedicated production facility for commemorative and investment-grade coins. Estimated market value is approximately $439. Struck in 99.9% silver, weighing 31.1 grams, 40.6 mm in diameter, with a reeded edge.
