First walking liberty. Can't believe it. New site. I hit the site two different times today. Something told me to go back the second time.

So is this just considered a 1 oz silver dollar or eagle? I don't know the correct term

American eagle I think is the proper term, but silver eagle is a common term

I've always heard them called silver eagles. They are marked as a dollar, but they were never intended to circulate at face value. They are solely intended for collectors.

Awesome pull Nathan, you were deserving of a killer find. I can tell from your posts that you put the time in and have that never-give-up attitude. Well done sir!

There are American "Silver" Eagles and American "Gold" Eagles, so both names are correct.

I never can quite figure out how those manage to be out in the wild. Congrats on a find that VERY few others will ever come across.
