In 1986, the United States Mint began the American Eagle program. Since that inaugural year, with the exception of 2009, the U.S. Mint has released a Silver Proof version of the coin. 

2016 was the 30th anniversary of the release of the American Silver Eagle. To celebrate, for the first time on an American Silver Eagle, the Mint labeled the lower edge with "30th Anniversary" lettering, unique to the 2016 Proof Silver Eagle!
