Adolph A. Weinman created the Walking Liberty design featured on this silver round in 1916 for the Walking Liberty Half Dollar. That silver coin program continued through 1947, and Weinman’s creation lives on today on the obverse face of the sovereign silver coin of the United States; the American Silver Eagle.
On the obverse face of this 1 oz Sunshine Mint Walking Liberty Silver Round is the image of Lady Liberty as she strides toward the setting sun. With an American flag draped across her shoulders, the image is indicative of the nation’s march toward a brighter future.
The reverse side of these silver rounds features the bald eagle, America’s national emblem, with the traditional arrows of war and olive branch of peace included. Idaho’s Sunshine Mint produces these silver rounds each year. The Mint is a privately-owned entity with facilities in Idaho, Nevada, and Shanghai. In addition to producing its own rounds, it provides high quality silver and gold blanks to some of the world’s largest mints, including the United States Mint.
