The obverse of the Silver Eagle Coin (heads) features Adolph A. Weinman’s full–length figure of Liberty in full stride, enveloped in folds of the flag, with her right hand extended and branches of laurel and oak in her left.

Between 1916 and 1947 the United States minted what is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful coin designs ever. The Walking Liberty half dollar silver coin design was created by Adolph A. Weinman, who was also the designer of the popular Mercury Dime.  Adolph A. Weinman was born in Germany and came to the United States at the age of 14, after his father died.  As Weinman grew up in America, he began developing a talent for art, modeling, drawing and carving.  He studied sculpture in the studio of Philip Martiny, and in 1896 worked under Augustus Saint-Gaudens, who would have a major influence on his work. Weinman would win important sculptural commissions, including the monument to General Alexander Macomb in Detroit; the Post Office Department Building, Washington, D.C.; and Pennsylvania Station, New York.  In 1916, the Commission of Fine Arts invited Weinman and two other sculptors to submit their ideas and designs for a US dime, quarter and half dollar. The commission ended up choosing his designs for the dime and half dollar. The designs of both of these coins were actually inspired by a real person named Elsie Kachel Stevens. Weinman actually sculpted a bust of her 3 years earlier in 1913. Elsie Stevens and her husband the poet Wallace Stevens were actually tenants of Adolph Weinman at 441 W. 21st Street, New York City - which is how Elsie and Adolph Weinman met. The dime features the detailed face of Elsie Stevens while the walking liberty features part of her full figure on the half dollar.

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."

The obverse will also have the inscriptions bearing:

The Year the coin was minted

"Liberty"

"In God We Trust" 

American Silver Eagles are approved by the IRS for use in a tax-deferred retiriement account known as a silver IRA. The rules for a silver IRA are essentially the same as those for any other IRA. The key difference is that a silver IRA allows you to add silver, as well as other precious metals, including gold, platinum and palladium, whereas other IRAs are usually intended only for paper assets, such as mutual funds, stocks and bonds.  Only certain silver bullion is eligible. The silver must have a minimum fineness of .999, not all silver bullion produced around the world qualifies. Some of the more popular IRA-approved silver includes the American Silver Eagle Coin, Canadian Silver Maple Leaf Coin, Austrian Silver Vienna Philharmonic Coin, Mexican Silver Libertad Coin and the Australian Kookaburra Silver Coin. 99.9% pure silver bars from approved mints and refiners are also approved.
