Have you been looking for a Silver American Eagle from the first year of release? Then look no further than this beautiful Silver American Eagle with show-stopping eye appeal. The satiny, finely textured surfaces of this one-ounce Silver Eagle are pristine. Featuring amazing luster and perfect strike, this delightful example exhibits technically surfaces, with vibrant mint luster and well-detailed design elements throughout. In 1986, the United States mint struck over 5 million Silver American Eagles and less than 1% were able to achieve a perfect 70 grade by PCGS.
Are you looking to find the rarest Silver Eagle in the series in Mint State 70? Then look no further and this spot free, beautiful, and lustrous 1994 Silver American Eagle. In 1994, the production of Silver Eagles experienced a decline that brought the mintage to the lowest level for the series at the time. The total production of just 4,227,319 coins remains the second lowest bullion mintage for the overall series. This coin is sought after by investors and collectors who are trying to complete MS70 sets. The 1994 Silver Eagle is the 9th issue of the series. It, as most 1990's eagles do, often comes spotty and is elusive in perfect 70. Only 390 have achieved the perfect MS70 by NGC.

If you have been looking to add a truly exceptional piece to your collection, look no further than this hard-to-find First Strike Silver Eagle. First strike coins are pieces that are received by a grading service from the mint within 30 days of production by the Mint. This First Strike Silver Eagle is very peculiar in that PCGS did not start the First Strike designation until 2004. This leads us to believe the grading service must have received a postmarked and sealed box that was never opened. This is a truly exceptional piece and is a key date for any collection. Only 21 coins exist in the PCGS population that are First Strike.
The year 2000 marked the beginning of the new millennia and was the last year of production of Silver Eagle at the revered Philadelphia Mint. The mint produced over 9 million bullion Silver Eagles that year which came close to the 1986 record. Even though we saw a near-record for the time in terms of mintage, only 110 pieces have achieved the perfect MS70 grade by PCGS. Collectors and investors alike are always looking for early-year Silver Eagles to add to their collections because of their scarcity. This is flawless example deserves a place in your collection!
Silver American Eagles have been produced by the U.S Mint since 1986. The obverse design is struck with the image of Lady Liberty designed by sculptor Adolph A. Weinman for the 1916 half dollar. The reverse is designed John Mercanti featuring a heraldic eagle with 13 small stars representing the original thirteen colonies. This 2016 marked the 30th anniversary of its production and is a key date for collectors of the series. This Silver Eagle has been authenticated and labeled First Strike by PCGS. A coin can only receive the First Strike designation if it has been received by the grading service withing 30 days of production by the mint. The mint produced over 37 million Silver Eagles in 2016 and just over 151,000 pieces have received the First Strike designation.
Introduced in 1986, the popular and iconic American Eagle Silver Proof Coins are collector versions of the official United States Mint American Eagle Silver Bullion Coins. The classic Walking Liberty featured on the obverse has long been a collector favorite. After 35 years, this famous design has been refreshed, while the reverse features a completely new design. The 2021 American Eagle One Ounce Silver Reverse Proof Two-Coin Set Designer Edition contains one original and one newly re-designed American Eagle One Ounce Silver Coin with stunning reverse-proof finishes, a unique setting for the serious collector. Original Design: The 2021 obverse original design features Adolph A. Weinman’s full-length figure of Liberty in full stride, enveloped in folds of the flag, with her right hand extended and branches of laurel and oak in her left. The 2021 reverse original design features a heraldic eagle with a shield, an olive branch in the right talon, and arrows in the left. Each coin with the original designs bears the “W” mintmark reflecting its striking at the West Point Mint. New Design: The 2021 obverse new design features a refreshed depiction of Weinman’s Liberty. For the “refreshed” redesign, the United States Mint returned to its original historical assets to render a closer reflection of Weinman’s original vision and detail. The 2021 reverse new design features an eagle as it approaches a landing, carrying an oak branch as if to add it to a nest. Each coin with the new designs bears the “S” mintmark reflecting its striking at the San Francisco Mint. To give the new coins an added level of security, they are updated with enhanced security features, including a reeded edge variation.
Introduced in 1986, the popular and now-iconic American Eagle Silver Uncirculated Coins are collector versions of the official United States Mint American Eagle Silver Bullion Coins. These popular silver collectibles are struck at the West Point Mint. The classic Walking Liberty design by Adolph A. Weinman featured on the coin’s obverse has long been a collector favorite. After 35 years, this famous design has been refreshed. Thanks to technological advancements in the design and minting process, it now encompasses some of Weinman’s original details that were not previously possible. The reverse design is completely new. To give the new coins an added level of security, they have also been updated with enhanced security features, including a reeded edge variation. Uncirculated, or “Burnished” Eagles are struck using specially burnished blanks which results in a satin-like finish. Burnished coins are smooth to the touch and display striking detail. Note that the U.S. Mint does not use the term “burnished.” Instead, the mint refers to these coins simply as “uncirculated.” It’s the numismatic community that continues to use the term burnished in reference to coins produced through the special minting process. These special burnished coins also bear the "W" mint mark on the reverse of the coin.

One of the best ways to begin a numismatic portfolio is by purchasing coins from a particular series. When starting a collection, you can buy rare silver coins as a set, such as in chronological order, segregated by mint, or error/die varieties. Who wouldn’t want a complete set of coins that span the whole date range of Silver Eagles, from when they began minting to our current year.
For example, the 1986-2022 PCGS MS70 Silver American Eagle Collection is a very popular set. For some collections, we also have notable people in the precious metals world hand-sign the grading label. With so many different types of coins available, silver numismatics are a great way to invest in rare and desirable pieces of history.
While these numismatics have intrinsic value due to their silver content, people mainly choose to invest in them because of their scarcity. Since they are only available in limited quantities, their value rises as more and more collectors scoop them up for their personal collections.
Numismatics are graded using the Sheldon Coin Grading Scale. The scale runs from 1-70, with 70 being the highest or the “perfect” grade. A “perfect” grade of MS-70 means there are no marks, even when using an eye loupe or magnifier, and the color, luster and strike are exceptional. If you are looking to buy rare silver coins at a lower price, grades MS-68 to 69 are still near exceptional levels, as the main difference would be small, light marks that are only visible upon closer inspection.
Besides the physical appeal of numismatics, there are a maximum number of coins struck by their refineries annually, and only so many will achieve that “perfect” MS-70 (Mint State 70) rating. This is the basis of the coin's rarity, and in turn, its value.
Numismatics are collectible coins that are valued according to numerous factors beyond their silver content, including their rarity, condition, and market demand.
Silver bullion coins and bullion bars are a better option if you simply want to purchase silver for as close to its current spot price as possible.
Both diversify your financial portfolio in unique ways, so the best choice simply depends on your personal goals.
The Sheldon Coin Grading Scale is a 70-point assessment scale that determines a coin’s condition, with a 70 grade representing a perfect coin.
Before you buy rare silver coins, make sure the coin has been graded by an established third-party service such as the PCGS or NGC. These grading services take multiple factors into account, including surface preservation, strike, luster, coloration, and eye appeal.
Collecting silver numismatics from a specific series is a fun part of the hobby, and a complete set may be worth more than its individual pieces. For example, you could try to collect Silver Eagles from the first mint year (1986) up to the current year.
If you decide to sell your numismatics, you may be able to sell your set for a higher price than the individual coins.
