2022-W American Silver Eagle $1 NGC MS70 U.S. State Series Connecticut #31

The 2022-W American Silver Eagle graded NGC MS70 is a flawless one-troy-ounce silver coin celebrating Connecticut as State 31 of 50 in the NGC U.S. State Series. Struck in 0.999 fine silver at the West Point Mint, this $1 legal-tender coin carries the beloved Walking Liberty obverse — Adolph Weinman's enduring portrayal of Liberty striding toward the sunrise — alongside the coin's redesigned reverse introduced in 2021, depicting a bald eagle in dynamic descent with an oak branch in its talons, sculpted by Emily Damstra. NGC has awarded this coin a perfect MS70 grade, certifying it free of any post-production imperfections under magnification. The coin is securely housed in NGC's hard-plastic slab under a distinctive Connecticut pictorial label — featuring the state's iconic Charter Oak tree — bearing the certification number 6565304-024. The U.S. State Series from NGC is a collector-focused initiative that pairs premier-quality American Silver Eagles with state-themed labels, making this Connecticut example a natural centerpiece for both Silver Eagle type sets and state-themed collections.
