Modern Bullion Coins
1995-W $1 Silver Eagle PR70 Ultra Cameo NGC. The 1995-W Silver Eagle has the lowest mintage of the series by a wide margin, at a mere 30,125 pieces. The coins were only offered as part of the five-piece 10th Anniversary American Eagle proof set, which also included a representative of each of the gold denominations issued that year. The $999 issue price of the set was beyond the means of most collectors, so orders were predictably low, accounting for the limited mintage. The 1995-W is the acknowledged key to the series today.
The present coin is a magnificent, fully struck specimen, with impeccably preserved brilliant surfaces. The richly frosted design elements contrast dramatically with the deeply mirrored fields to produce a stunning cameo effect, and overall eye appeal is terrific.
