A specific type of bullion coin, minted by the United States Mint in 2001, is composed of .999 fine silver and holds a face value of one dollar. It is a popular item among collectors and investors, recognized for its silver content and iconic design.
This particular year’s issue possesses intrinsic value derived from its precious metal composition, coupled with potential numismatic value dependent on its condition, rarity of specific mint marks (if any), and overall market demand. Its enduring design, featuring the Walking Liberty obverse and a heraldic eagle reverse, connects it to a rich heritage of American coinage, making it a tangible piece of history. Furthermore, the silver content provides a hedge against economic uncertainty and inflation.
