The Mint began producing silver American Eagles with a face value of $1 in 1986. The obverse is a reproduction of Weinman's Walking Liberty half dollar, and the reverse shows a simple heraldic eagle surmounted by thirteen stars. The coin contains one ounce of silver. Although it is legal tender, the silver American Eagle is not made for circulation; it is a bullion coin, intended for those who wish to hold silver or who desire the coin as a collector's piece.<ref>Yeoman 2001, 333</ref>
