2021-W TY2 Proof Silver Eagle 1 oz FDI Flag

Description

2021-W Proof Silver Eagle, Type 2, First Day of Issue, PCGS PR70 DCAM. This exceptional 2021-W Proof Silver Eagle Type 2 represents one of the most sought-after modern bullion issues from the United States Mint. Struck at the West Point facility, this coin was among the first released and carries the coveted First Day of Issue (FDI) designation, making it a premium example for discerning collectors. The coin has been graded PCGS PR70 with the prestigious Deep Cameo (DCAM) designation, indicating exceptional contrast between the frosted devices and mirrored fields that define superior proof coinage. The Type 2 reverse, introduced in 2021, features a redesigned eagle landing on the moon, replacing the classic heraldic eagle reverse used since 1986. Composed of 99.93% silver with nominal copper content, this one-ounce coin maintains the standard 40.6mm diameter. The PCGS PR70 grade represents a perfect proof strike with no visible imperfections under magnification, while the DCAM designation confirms the dramatic cameo effect that elevates this coin above standard proof examples. With only 4,091 examples graded across all grades by PCGS, this variety remains relatively scarce in the modern American Mint context. The combination of the new reverse design, First Day of Issue status, and flawless PR70 DCAM grade makes this an outstanding addition to any Silver Eagle collection or modern proof silver holding.
