The 2009 American Silver Eagle is a one-ounce silver coin minted by the United States Mint, featuring a design based on Adolph A. Weinman’s Walking Liberty half dollar. As legal tender with a face value of $1, it is primarily considered a collectible due to its silver content, which is 99.9% pure silver. The 2009 issues are particularly noteworthy as they were minted during a year of increased demand for precious metals, leading to lower mintage figures compared to other years, making them more desirable among collectors.
