WASHINGTON - The United States Mint announced today that the 2007 one-ounce American Eagle Silver Uncirculated Coin will be available beginning at noon on Wednesday, June 13, 2007. Struck on specially burnished blanks, the American Eagle Silver Uncirculated Coins feature a finish similar to their bullion counterparts, but carry the "W" mint mark, reflecting their striking at the United States Mint at West Point.

The American Eagle Silver Uncirculated Coin bears the same designs as the bullion and proof versions. The obverse design features Adolph A. Weinman’s full-length figure of Liberty in full stride, enveloped in folds of the American flag, with her right hand extended and branches of laurel and oak in her left. The reverse design depicts a Heraldic eagle with shield, an olive branch in the right talon and arrows in the left.

Each coin is encapsulated in protective plastic and placed in a blue presentation case accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity signed by the Director of the United States Mint, Edmund C. Moy.

Containing one troy ounce of .999 silver, the 2007 American Eagle Silver Uncirculated Coin will be available for $21.95.
