The 2002 American Silver Eagle is the 17th coin in the series and continues to uphold the standard of excellence set by previous releases. Like all Silver Eagles, the 2002 coin contains one ounce of .999 fine silver and features the iconic Walking Liberty design on the obverse and the heraldic eagle design on the reverse.
Obverse Design:
The obverse of the 2002 Silver Eagle features Adolph A. Weinman’s famous Walking Liberty design. Lady Liberty is depicted walking toward the rising sun, draped in the American flag, with an olive branch in her right hand symbolizing peace. Her left hand reaches for the folds of her robe, representing hope and strength. The inscriptions on the obverse include LIBERTY, IN GOD WE TRUST, and the year 2002. This design remains one of the most beloved and enduring representations of American freedom and spirit.
Reverse Design:
The reverse of the 2002 Silver Eagle features the heraldic eagle design by John M. Mercanti. The eagle holds an olive branch in one talon and arrows in the other, representing peace and the ability to defend the nation when necessary. Above the eagle are 13 stars, symbolizing the original 13 American colonies. The reverse inscriptions include UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, 1 OZ. FINE SILVER, and E PLURIBUS UNUM, reinforcing the coin’s connection to American values and unity.
Collector Value:
The 2002 American Silver Eagle is part of the standard mintage years in the series. While not considered a low-mintage year, it remains a popular coin due to its classic design and status as part of the long-running Silver Eagle program. The value of the coin is generally determined by the market price of silver, though like all early-year Silver Eagles, the 2002 coin may carry a small premium among collectors who seek to complete a set or add to their collection.
While it does not have the rarity of the 1996 key date or some other lower-mintage years, the 2002 Silver Eagle is still a highly desirable coin, appreciated for both its historical significance and the beauty of its design. It is a great addition to any collection, especially for those looking to own a piece of the rich history of the American Silver Eagle program.
