Add Beauty and Value to Your Coin Collection

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.

Why Buy Rare Silver Coins?

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.
