During the Revolutionary War, Continental Marines conducted their first amphibious raid in March 1776 at Nassau in the Bahamas, where they successfully captured British gunpowder and military supplies desperately needed by Washington’s forces. Marines also served aboard Continental Navy ships, providing security, manning fighting tops during naval engagements, and participating in boarding actions against British vessels throughout the conflict.

The obverse of 2025-P Proof Marine Corps Privy American Silver Eagles comes with the iconic image of Walking Liberty, as created in 1916 by Adolph A. Weinman. This side of the coin includes the US Marine Corps privy, reflecting the eagle, globe, and anchor emblem of the service. The Eagle, Globe, and Anchor emblem has served as the official insignia of the Marine Corps since 1868. The eagle represents the nation the Marines serve, clutching the globe in its talons to symbolize the Corps’ worldwide service and expeditionary nature, while the fouled anchor beneath acknowledges the Marines’ naval heritage and close relationship with the U.S. Navy.

On the reverse of 2025-P 1 oz Proof Marine Corps Privy Silver Eagle Coins, you will find the modern depiction of the American bald eagle used in this series. Designed in 2020 by Emily Damstra, this depiction of an eagle in flight with a large oak branch in its talons has graced the reverse of Silver Eagles since mid-2021.
