Standard Proof American Silver Eagle coins are produced at the West Point Mint. While other mints in the US Mint system have helped produced special-release Proof Silver Eagles, such as reverse proof coins, the West Point Mint is responsible for the bulk of production. These 2018 Proof Silver Eagles have a W mint mark on the reverse, situated to the lower-left of the heraldic eagle.
The Proof American Silver Eagle coin features the image of Walking Liberty on the obverse, and the heraldic eagle of the US on the reverse. These coins have the same design each year on both sides, with the Walking Liberty and heraldic eagle designs picked from American history to represent the series.
On the obverse of 2018 Proof American Silver Eagle Coins is Walking Liberty. With the American flag over her shoulders, she walks toward the setting sun as a sign of the nations constant march toward a brighter future. This was created in 1916 by Adolph A. Weinman.
The reverse of Proof American Silver Eagle coins features the image of the heraldic eagle. Refined for this coin in 1986 by John Mercanti, the heraldic eagle first appeared on an American coin in 1794.
