2008-W American Silver Eagle市场数据和值得注意的标本

2007年底爆发的金融危机一直持续到2009年6月。为了克服住房危机的经济影响，奥巴马政府扩大了

The financial crisis, which hit at the end of 2007 and continued through June 2009, saw the Obama Administration expand on the policies that Treasury Secretary Henry “Hank” Paulson rolled out at the end of President George W. Bush’s second term to overcome the economic fallout from the housing crisis.

金融危机于2007年底爆发，一直持续到2009年6月，奥巴马政府根据财政部长亨利·汉克·鲍尔森（Henry“ Hank” Paulson）在总统乔治·W·布什（George W. Bush）的第二任期结束时推出的政策，以克服房屋危机的经济危及。

As a result of these economic concerns — plus stock market and real estate losses, and fears of too much government spending — the market for precious metals assets exploded. Some cynically saw the change in administrations as a way to launder culpability for the crisis, and conservative radio show hosts like Glenn Beck and others heavily promoted gold ownership thanks to the tremendous amount of cash that precious metals market makers were putting into radio and television ads. Yet fears that the Obama Administration would enact anti-colonial socialist policies that would trigger hyperinflation were laughably overblown. At best, Obama was center-right of his electorate and pursued cautious policies that slowed the economic recovery.

由于这些经济问题，加上股票市场和房地产损失，以及对政府过多支出的担忧 - 贵金属资产的市场爆炸。一些愤世嫉俗的人将行政部门的变化视为洗涤危机的一种罪魁祸首的一种方式，格伦·贝克（Glenn Beck）等保守的广播节目主持人和其他人大力促进了黄金所有权，这要归功于贵金属市场制造商正在投入广播和电视广告中的大量现金。然而，人们担心奥巴马政府会制定反殖民社会主义政策，这些政策会引发过度通货膨胀，这是可笑的。充其量，奥巴马是他选民的中央右翼，并采取了慢速政策，这减慢了经济复苏。

The United States Mint saw record demand for its American Eagle bullion coins. The 2008-W American Silver Eagle Proof went on sale on January 3 at an issue price of $31.95 (about $48.30 in 2025 inflation-adjusted dollars). Demand for the bullion version exceeded 20 million, which strained the Mint’s ability to keep up. In August, the Mint suspended the sales of the Proof version and would not offer Proof or Burnished American Silver Eagles in 2009.

美国造币厂对其美国鹰金条硬币的创纪录需求。 2008-W American Silver Eagle的证明是1月3日以31.95美元的发行价格（2025年通货膨胀调整后的美元约为48.30美元）的发行。对金条版本的需求超过了2000万，这使造币厂的跟上能力紧张。 8月，造币厂暂停了证明版本的销售，并且在2009年不会提供证明或抛光的美国银鹰。

Obverse:

ververse：

Artist Adolph A. Weinman’s figure of Lady Liberty is depicted mid-stride. She is dressed in a flowing gown and draped with a large billowing American flag. Liberty holds laurel and oak branches in her left hand that symbolize the civil and military glories of America, respectively. As she strides confidently towards the rising sun, Liberty reaches out a welcoming open hand. So large is Lady Liberty that she is superimposed over the obverse legend LIBERTY ringing the obverse – in fact, she obscures half of the “BE” and almost the entire “R”. Above Liberty’s rear foot is the motto IN GOD WE TRUST, and below her in the exergue is the date 2008.

艺术家Adolph A. Weinman的自由夫人身材被描绘成中间。她穿着一件飘逸的礼服，披上了大型滚滚的美国国旗。 Liberty将Laurel和Oak分支机在她的左手中分别象征着美国的民用和军事荣耀。当她自信地朝着升起的太阳迈进时，Liberty伸出了一个热情的敞开手。自由女神是如此之大，以至于她被叠加在正面的传奇自由上，响起了正面的自由 - 实际上，她掩盖了一半的“ be”，几乎整个“ r”。在自由的后脚上方是我们信任上帝的座右铭，而在她的之下，在她的下方是2008年的日期。

The design bears a notable resemblance to sculptor Oscar Roty’s The Sower, a common image on French coins. Numismatist Roger Burdette posited in his book Renaissance of American Coinage (2007) that this was not a coincidence and while Adolph Weinman did not directly copy, he did derive significant inspiration from Roty’s work.

该设计与雕塑家奥斯卡·罗伊（Oscar Roty）的《播种者》（The Sower）具有显着相似之处，这是法国硬币上的常见图像。钱币主义者罗杰·伯德特（Roger Burdette）在他的《美国造币复兴》（American Coinage，2007年）的书中提出了这并不是巧合，尽管阿道夫·温曼（Adolph Weinman）没有直接复制，但他确实从罗伊（Roty）的作品中获得了重要的灵感。

The W mintmark of the West Point Mint is located under the branch.

美国造币厂的首席雕刻师约翰·梅坎蒂（John Mercanti）的纹章鹰位于反向的中心。紧紧抓住喙的是带有座右铭pluribus unum的缎带。头顶上方是在颠倒的金字塔形成中配置的13颗恒星的星座。传奇（最高）美利坚合众国围绕着设计，底层（底部）1盎司。细银。一美元。西点薄荷的W Mintmark位于分支下方。
