The 2022-W Silver Eagle Proof - West Point

One-Troy ounce 99.9% Silver Eagle dollar coin. This continues the new design of an eagle landing on a nest. The 2022W Silver Eagle Proof is minted at the West Point Mint and carries a 'W' mint mark to the right of the eagle. Diameter is 1.598 inches (40.60 mm).

2022 Silver Eagle Proofs are minted at both West Point and San Francisco branches of the US Mint. West Point also produces bullion Silver Eagles.

The Reverse shows a bald eagle landing on a branch. Sculptor: Michael Gaudioso; Designer: Emily Damstra; their initials can be seen either side of the branch. Text on the reverse includes "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA", "E PLURIBUS UNUM", "1 OZ. FINE SILVER" and
"ONE DOLLAR".

The Obverse design is based on the Walking Liberty Half-Dollar (1916-1947) by Adolph A. Weinman; his initials are just below the 'WE TRUST'. Text on the obverse includes "LIBERTY", "IN GOD WE TRUST" and the year "2022".

Remember 2022 ?
In UK: Queen Elizabeth II died on 8 September 2022 and was succeeded by her eldest son as King Charles III. Queen Elizabeth's funeral is watched by billions around the World.
Prime Minster is Boris Johnson but resigns and a new Conservative leadership battle sees Liz Truss as the new Prime Minister. Truss's economic strategy causes chaos in the markets and the Pound to crash; she resigns just 50 days into her leadership. On 25 October Rishi Sunak becomes the youngest Prime Minister for over 200 years (aged 42).
In USA: US President is Joe Biden (D-Delaware) and vice-president is Kamala Harris.
World: Russia invades Ukraine, causing global tensions. Coronavirus is still a concern but looks to be in decline. Following these events the World moves towards a global recession.
The American Silver Eagle is a one-ounce .999 silver coin denominated at one dollar. It is the official silver bullion coin of the USA and as such is guaranteed by US Law to contain one troy ounce of 99.9% pure silver.

The coin has been produced at the Philadelphia, San Francisco and West Point Mints. Although primarily a bullion coin, the coin is popular with collectors and is also available in Proof and Uncirculated finishes.

The Obverse design is based on the Walking Liberty Half-Dollar (1916-1947) by Adolph A. Weinman. The Reverse shows a heraldic eagle by John Mercanti, replaced in late 2021 by a bald eagle landing on a branch by Emily Damstra.
