2025 US Mint Product Release Details: 2025 Laser Engraved American Eagle One Ounce Silver Proof Coin (25EALE)
What we know so far about the 2025 Laser Engraved American Eagle One Ounce Silver Proof Coin (25EALE)
In 2025, the United States Mint proudly unveils a remarkable new chapter in the American Eagle Silver Proof Coin series with the release of the American Eagle One Ounce Silver Proof Coin (W), featuring—for the first time ever—a special laser-engraved privy mark. Struck in one ounce of .999 fine silver at the prestigious West Point Mint, this collector edition coin continues a tradition that began in 1986, blending the beauty of historic American coinage with the precision of modern minting technology.
The obverse design showcases Adolph A. Weinman’s iconic Walking Liberty, depicted in full stride with laurel and oak branches in hand, enveloped in the folds of the American flag. With the Mint’s return to its original historical assets, this version brings enhanced detail and includes Weinman’s traditional artist mark—alongside the newly introduced laser-engraved privy mark. The reverse features a bold eagle descending with an oak branch, a symbol of strength and renewal. Inscriptions include “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” “1 OZ. FINE SILVER,” and “ONE DOLLAR.”
Each coin bears a reeded edge variation for added security and the “W” mint mark, reflecting its origin at West Point. It is presented in a satin-lined black velvet case, accompanied by a certificate of authenticity, and packaged in a box adorned with the official U.S. Mint seal and an image of the coin’s obverse design.
The 2025 Laser Engraved American Eagle One Ounce Silver Proof Coin (25EALE) will be available for purchase beginning August 20 at noon Eastern Time, exclusively from the United States Mint.
