Each tube contains 20 coins, with every coin composed of 1 troy ounce of .999 fine silver. This offering delivers a total of 20 troy ounces of investment-grade silver. Each coin carries a $1 USD face value backed by the United States government and measures 40.6 mm in diameter.

Iconic American Coinage Design

The obverse features Adolph A. Weinman’s beloved Walking Liberty design. Lady Liberty strides confidently toward the rising sun, draped in the American flag and carrying branches of laurel and oak. This timeless image first appeared on the 1916 Walking Liberty Half Dollar and remains one of the most admired designs in U.S. coinage history.

The reverse showcases the original heraldic eagle design used on Silver Eagles from 1986 through 2021. The eagle appears beneath 13 stars, representing the original American colonies. The design reflects national strength, unity, and heritage.

Original Orange Tube – Early Bullion Appeal

This listing includes a rare U.S. Mint original orange tube containing 20 Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) coins. The original tube enhances both storage efficiency and collectible interest, especially for early-date Silver Eagle releases.

As secondary market coins, individual pieces may show toning, spotting, oxidation, or light surface marks. While designated as BU, these coins are not guaranteed to exhibit flawless surfaces. Natural aging is common with vintage silver bullion and does not affect the .999 fine silver content or total weight.
