The obverse showcases the enduring Walking Liberty design, originally introduced in 1916. Liberty is depicted in motion, draped in the American flag as she strides toward the rising sun, carrying branches that symbolize growth and renewal. Fine details in her flowing gown and the sun’s rays are sharply rendered, particularly in this high-grade example. The inscription “IN GOD WE TRUST” appears to the right, while the date “2021” anchors the design at the base.
On the reverse, the traditional heraldic eagle design—used on Silver Eagles since the series began in 1986—makes its final appearance in this Type 1 issue. The eagle holds arrows and an olive branch, representing the nation’s readiness and desire for peace, while a shield rests across its chest. Above, a constellation of stars forms a balanced arc, reinforcing national unity. The surrounding inscriptions include “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” and “1 OZ. FINE SILVER – ONE DOLLAR,” clearly stating its weight and denomination.
