Weinman (1870-1952). The United States Mint describes the obverse features as:   "… an ever hopeful Lady Liberty striding confidently toward the sunrise, draped in the strength of the Stars and Stripes carrying in her arms branches of laurel and oak to symbolize both civil and military glory."   After a close inspection, you’ll notice Weinman’s initials on the hem of Lady Liberty’s gown. The obverse will also have the inscriptions bearing: The Year the coin was minted"Liberty""In God We Trust" The coin’s designation within the "American Eagle" coin family hints at its tails or reverse design. You’ve already seen at least the image of the Silver American Eagle’s reverse to know it portrays an eagle. That design was created by United States Mint sculptor-engraver John M. Mercanti and portrays a heraldic eagle with a shield. The eagle has arrows in the right talon and an olive branch in its left. The reverse of the American Silver Eagle has the inscriptions: "United States of America""1 Oz. Fine Silver" "E Pluribus Unum""One Dollar"
