The early years of American Silver Eagles saw significant demand for these new silver bullion and proof collectible coins. As we entered the 1990s, the Proof Silver Eagle regained popularity following a brief decline in the late 1980s.

The total mintage of 1990-S 1 oz Proof American Silver Eagle coins reached 695,510, marking both an increase in sales and the highest mintage figure for the collectible version until 2001.

All 1991-S 1 oz Proof American Silver Eagles in this listing are considered flawless proof specimens by the NGC. Coins with a PF70 grade exhibit full, original mint luster and have no detracting flaws.

A coin with a UCAM finish, or ultra-cameo, boasts a unique beauty with a strong, frosted matte finish on the design set and a deeply-mirrored, clear background field. These coins are somewhat rare from the 1990 release of Proof Silver Eagles.

On the obverse of the American Silver Eagle is the iconic image of Walking Liberty, created by Adolph A. Weinman in 1916. Originally featured on the Walking Liberty Half Dollar circulation coin until 1947, it portrays Liberty walking toward a setting sun.

The reverse of all 1991 Proof American Silver Eagle coins includes the heraldic eagle of the United States. First used in 1794, this design was refined by US Mint Chief Engraver John Mercanti in 1986.
