Best Answer

Modern American Eagle coins have their purity displayed right on the back of each piece. It's one ounce of 999 fine silver.

Don't confuse modern eagle coins with older circulating silver coins that incorporate many of the same design elements. For those you have to know what date and denomination of coin you have.
