Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the US Mint closed down operations at the West Point Mint in mid-April. To try and keep up with demand they secretly struck 240,000 Silver American Eagles at the Philadelphia Mint between April 8th and the 20th, creating the
second lowest mintage Silver Eagle and a modern-day American rarity.
Lucky for us, before the mint issued the press release below, we obtained a few sealed cases of the so-called "emergency issue" Silver Eagles. Today, we're offering them at special introductory pricing to preferred clients only due to our extremely limited supplies. We expect these will rise in value considerably from current levels, much like the 2015 Philly Silver Eagle, which sells for over $600 each in Mint State 69 today! The key is buying these issues early on, before prices rise in the secondary collector marketplace.
We submitted our sealed cases to PCGS for certification and we're offering them today in
PCGS Mint State 69
and perfect
Mint State 70 condition
. In addition, we have a few dozen specially labeled original mint rolls, containing twenty coins each, for only $1095 a roll.
Order certified coins online now or call 1-800-928-6468 to reserve the rolls. We only have 25 of them available and they'll have special seals and labels by the grading company.
We expect to ship orders by the end of May as our coins are being certified. With their low mintages and great story, we think these 2020 Philly silver eagles are a great opportunity at current price levels.
Below is a copy of the letter released by the Department of the Treasury from the US Mint, dated April 27th, 2020, discussing the Emergency Issue 2020 Silver Eagles:
As always, thank you for your business.
