Silver eagles to honor U.S. Army

A limited-edition, privy-marked Proof 2025-W American Eagle silver dollar prepared for release June 13 from the United States Mint celebrates the 250th anniversary of establishment of the Continental Army during the American Revolutionary War, on June 14, 1775.

As of May 24, the Mint had not yet established pricing for the privy-marked American Eagle. The product is limited to an issue of 100,000 coins. Each household order is restricted  to three coins during the first 24 hours of sales, after which the limit will be lifted.

The commemorative privy-mark — containing elements of the U.S. Army’s official seal — is positioned in the field behind Liberty, to the left of the Y in the inscription LIBERTY.
