2023 S Silver Eagle PCGS PR70 DCAM Advance Release Signed by Emily S. Damstra

Coinciding with the historic design change from the iconic Heraldic Eagle to the Eagle Landing design in 2021, the U.S. Mint started the Advance Release program. Advance Release coins are U.S. Mint limited Edition coins struck on highly polished new dies and released prior to the official release date. These coins have quickly become the most sought-after coins on the market surpassing even First Day of Issue certified coins in popularity.

The Advance Release program is select and only applies to a limited number of U.S. Mint products, the highlight being this 2023 Silver Eagle proof strike coin minted at the San Francisco Mint. This coin is certified in perfect PR70 DCAM condition by PCGS, imparting its special Advance Release provenance, which is made more intriguing to the collector because it is also hand signed by Emily S. Damstra. Her initials ESD are engraved on every coin!

Emily S. Damstra is an award-winning Master coin designer with an impressive 44 credits at the United States and Royal Canadian Mints. Two of her designs have won Coin of the Year (COTY) awards. Her Eagle Landing design was chosen by the United States Mint in 2021 for the new Type 2 American Silver Eagle, the most collected silver coin in the world.
