I had an order of the 2009 proof silver eagle…. the W. I called the mint, they told me that there will be no 2009 proofs minted… It will not be a “key” date”…. it will be missing. Leave it to the government to not make a profit. These guys would not know how to run a business if they spent 10 years and got a PHD in economics. What a bunch of jokers the govt employees are….. WOW… they could get 50-80 per coin… but there are such jokers they would rather not mint them.

i hear in late septrember the w and proof silver eagles will come out,i bet they will sell out fast,and they might become an key date if they don’t have that much silver.

(2009) Silver UNC Higher Mintage numbers, lower coin value. This is for me an un-collectable or no value other than silver.
However, if they decided to produce (2009) W Proof in lower than past amounts, that could produce a highly collectable coin.

2009 is the most common silver eagle ever they will be first to be melted if silver becomes super high.

There is much more paper silver than physical silver. The comex is rigged. I would not own paper silver. I would take delivery of physical silver as soon as possible.

Saw your article posted on Coininfo. Yes Silver Eagles are hot,but at the premium dealers have been charging (5.50/spot on average) they are a poor investment. Unlike the low mintage of the 1996 Silver Eagles, the high mintage will prevent the coins from ever bringing a collectors premium. As the mint catches up with with demand, premiums will drop considerably. After all, price that the Mint charges their Distributors is still about $1.35 over spot. If your investing in Silver, buy generic rounds that are available at $1.25/1.75 over spot. When Silver again reaches $25.00 per ounce it will be very unlikely that Dealers will pay much of a premium over generic rounds. In 1980 during the Silver run up, nobody cared whether you had an old silver dollar, (unless rare) or a more recent struck silver round. They were all purchased for the same, melt value +/- Regards.
