"Silver eagles" are modern bullion coins minted since 1986 and sold to investors and collectors. Their $1 denomination is artificial.
The US Mint didn't make any silver dollars in 1929.
$1 coins minted up till 1935 contained exactly $1 worth of silver and were simply called "silver dollars", because they were part of normal circulating coinage.
