The 1996 Silver American Eagle in Impaired condition presents a unique opportunity for budget-conscious collectors and investors looking to buy silver with added historical value. Struck by the U.S. Mint in one troy ounce of .999 fine silver, the 1996 Silver Eagle is especially notable for having the lowest mintage of any Silver Eagle bullion coin released to date—making it a key date in the series.
While impaired condition coins may show signs of heavy wear, cleaning, spotting, or surface marks, they still retain their full silver content and legal tender status. These imperfections make the coin less suitable for high-end collectors but ideal for those looking to own a significant year in the Silver Eagle lineup at a more accessible price point.
The obverse features the iconic Walking Liberty design by Adolph A. Weinman, representing freedom and optimism. The reverse displays John Mercanti’s heraldic eagle clutching arrows and an olive branch, symbolizing strength and peace.
Key features:
- Contains 1 troy oz of .999 fine silver
- 1996: lowest mintage in the Silver Eagle series
- Impaired condition with visible wear or handling marks
- Obverse: Walking Liberty; Reverse: Heraldic eagle
- U.S. legal tender with $1 face value
- Great choice for those looking to buy silver with numismatic importance at a lower cost
