A United States Mint bullion coin struck in 2015 at the Philadelphia Mint is the focus. This coin features .999 fine silver and carries a face value of one dollar. Its obverse displays Adolph A. Weinman’s “Walking Liberty” design, while the reverse showcases a heraldic eagle design by John Mercanti. The “P” mint mark denotes its origin at the Philadelphia Mint, an uncommon feature for this particular type of bullion coin.
The significance of this specific issue lies in its limited mintage at the Philadelphia Mint. Typically, these bullion coins are produced at the West Point Mint. The Philadelphia Mint’s involvement in its production contributes to its appeal among collectors and investors. This characteristic can enhance its value beyond the intrinsic worth of the silver content. Its historical context within the broader series adds to its collectibility.
