The most well known of the silver eagle errors, this coin was struck with the prior year’s reverse die. An estimated 47K of these exist. These are my last two! While the American Silver Eagle has been struck by the US Mint since 1986 and it is one of the most widely collected coins in the world, there is only 1 major variety in this series. In 2008, when the burnished Silver Eagles were being struck at the West Point Mint, some were struck with the reverse design used for 2007 Silver Eagles. This variety is best known as the 2008-W reverse of 07. It has 2 distinguishing features. The first is that the U in UNITED will have serifs at the top, but no serif on the side. The second feature can be seen in the between SILVER and ONE. The 2007 reverse has a sharper pointy version as opposed to the smoother on the 2008 reverse. This coin is always in demand, especially in high grades. Thank you for looking!
