The American Silver Eagle is the perfect Tri-Fecta … the Largest, Purest and
Heaviest Silver Dollar in US Mint history. It is easily the #1 Silver Dollar in
the world today .. #2 is a combination of the rest of the top 10.
The
Finest Quality
The
Best of the Best in Silver Eagles is the limited edition Proof. They are double
struck on highly polished dies … like a mirror - you can actually see you self
when looking at the coins image.
First
Years Releases
Firsts
are always remembered … the first person to fly across the Atlantic, the first
Super Bowl Winner, the first person to walk on the moon ... and they have a
special place in the hearts of collectors. Regular issue Proof Silver Eagles
have been struck at three US Mints: San Francisco ( 1986 to 1992 ), Philadelphia
( 1993 to 2000 ) and West Point ( 2001 to present ).
Rarity
- And a Value to Hard to Pass Up
Unlike
the Uncirculated coin released each year the Proof Silver Eagles are struck in
extremely limited numbers. A comparison of the First Year Uncirculated and
Proofs make them a must buy … 1986 ( 5.3 million uncs - 1.4 million proofs - a 4
to 1 ration ) 1993 ( 6.7 million uncs - .37 million proofs - a 18 to 1 ratio )
2001 ( 9 Million uncs – .746 million proofs - a 12 to 1 ratio ). The question to
ask .. why are the proofs only selling for a small premium to the uncirculated?
That’s Value.
