As a collector, I purchased this first year of issue 1986 S Walking Lady Liberty 1 oz Fine Silver dollar for two reasons. The first is that without a doubt, it is one of the most beautifully made coins by the U.S. mint. It came in a sealed coin case to protect it from outside elements and protects it from actually being touched. Oil on the skin transfers to it and then, in my opinion, ruins/devalues the coin overall. This coin was a "proof" strike, not a 'MS' (mint strike) Proofs are produced for collectors and have extremely fine detail/resolution and are not meant for general circulation. The coin in proof state has a mirror like surface with the obverse side and reverse side bringing out a highly detailed picture almost like a cameo. Secondarily, I purchased this 1 oz silver coin as an investment... With gold and silver on the rise, long term, any silver is a secure investment. Major influence in this purchase was it's absolutely beautiful.Read full review
I was well pleased with the condition of this roll of UNC Silver Eagles. It came properly protected in a mint issued tube with adequate packaging material to protect the coins. The quality of these coins are clearly up to the standards one would expect of UNC coins and worthy of adding to an uncirculated coin collection.

The US silver dollar is a mass produced bullion coin. There's nothing at all special about the quality or the creativeness of this standard design, nor anything special about the purity of the silver. It is produced in such enormous quantities (tens of millions minted) that there can't be any real premium asked for when selling this very common coin. I much prefer lower mintage coins which are much higher in quality of design; I recommend the Perth Mint's silver Lunar Series as just one of several varieties of coins that far surpass the Eagle in quality.
