Pricing increased for most United States Mint coin products for 2023, including prices for American Silver Eagles, flagship proof and uncirculated sets, and quarters in rolls, bags and sets.

It is also now known how much the U.S. Mint will charge for their proof and uncirculated Morgan and Peace silver dollars.

The newly published prices come a day following the U.S. Mint’s announcement to increase prices on silver medals.

Originally revealed Feb. 8 in the Federal Register, the official source of notices by government agencies and a daily journal of their proceedings, the new prices have already been pushed through to product pages for the coins and sets. In addition, prices for older products in the same family have also increased to match those for 2023.

The following table lists the U.S. Mint’s coin products, their prices, and how much they changed from the prior year.

Poor quality and higher prices!!!! I can’t wait!!!` Bye Bye U S Mint!!!!!>>>>>>>>>>>>>Keep Running “FORREST”>>>>>>>>>>>>>

J S

Just cancelled my ASE subscriptions. Too expensive. Done subsidizing US Mint overhead (salaries). I’ve collected coins for six decades. But I also collect wine. Today, I diversified funds budgeted to 2023 coins into some boutique Sonoma Co. pinot noirs. The wines will triple in price over the next few years. More importantly … I can always drink them.

Cheers looking at you, US Mint overlords. Priced yourself out of my business.

Chris Terp

Those pinot noirs probably a better value than the rip-off prices for what distilleries
are pricing their bourbons now J S – good going.

Guess the bourbon distillers have the Mint mentality of raising prices just to raise prices?

Caliskier

Maybe, I’m off “base”? Wouldn’t it have been a good idea and good faith gesture from a marketing and public relations standpoint to have posted these “changes to come” before the changes came? Even, if for just a 1-3 day or 5 day M-F Scenario? Just saying, as from my point of view the US Mint, other than COTY nominations, hasn’t garnered a ton of favorable press over these past 10-15 years or so? A heads up can go along way, if you’re trying to show your customers your care? Nope, just more surveys and inconsistent at best, moves. Just… Read more »

Careful what you wish for Kaiser Wilhelm, as I literally can go on and o, as those over on Mint News blog can attest! LOL I just enjoy talking coins, however often the US Mint and or Congress and their legislation re Commemoratives and other issues have all too often gotten in the way! Too much fodder to ignore, so I tend to take aim and “stimulate, although some would say “charge” the topic? I’ve been accused of numerous things, however I’ve never been accused of being “too nice” when it comes to our US Mint. The US Mint for… Read more »

Caliskier

LOL Kaiser! That would just make way too much “cents”! I’ve been getting ready to look up those costs? I think the current going rate is something like$2.35 over spot/coin to the AP’s in those 40-coin trays? Granted those increases would also be born out by the end consumer, no doubt? Those coins(bullion) are legislated to be sold to “the public” not the Authorized Purchasers/AP’s! SMH AP/middleman was the easy or lazy way out of doing what they should have, could have been doing all along? Direct bullion sales to the “public” and cut out those favored AP’s who can… Read more »

“American Eagle Silver Bullion

United States Mint Authorized Purchasers are charged the LBMA Silver Price plus a $2.35 per coin premium.
Minimum ordering requirement: 25,000 ounces”

For any wondering about premiums to spot price charged to the AP’s. Link to AP current premiums.

I see the makings of an epic cult thriller, Attack of the Killer Pigs. A government experiment gone wrong.

A farm pig that escapes begins to show wild hog characteristics after 2 days. In about 7 it is no longer recognizable as a farm pig, except for it looks like a wild boar, but much larger. It has grown tusks, hair has thickened and temperament change completely

REB

“The only way this even begins to make sense is if the Mint has in fact received a directive to henceforth do everything possible to discourage anyone and everyone from taking up or continuing to pursue the hobby of coin collecting.” I wonder if you’re on to something here. In a way it’s not shocking given the move away from coinage in general circulation. The price increases probably won’t move the needle for me. HOWEVER, it WILL influence purchases from those on tight budgets … namely KIDS … who are tomorrow’s coin collectors. To me the Mint has improved ordering… Read more »

BTW, thank you Mike Unser for your efforts, in trying to stay on top of US Mint News! Many others are just regurgitating “Press Releases”. Those are better than nothing, however often nothing has been released to the press, much like these price increases.

Thanks again and keep up the good work!

PS See if you can get the inside scoop on the upcoming(???) US Mint “Price Range Table” price increases??? If it’s happening it’ll happen before the APtE or AGE’s?

Caliskier

Heads up to any interested? AWQ’s PDS Subscriptions showing a few available. Got to be quick though.

Tom

no surprise there. probably the speculators are reducing their subscriptions. Think of those folks on EBay who posted pre-sales for the ‘sold-out’ quarter rolls, and now they have to pay an extra $6 for the roll….
If my look at the prices is correct, you also have the situation now, a 2023 Uncirculated Morgan is more expensive than an 1880 Unc. Morgan. Hmmmm.

Craig

$80 for a ASE? They still are only using an oz. of Ag in each coin, right? I thought when they elevated a “woman” to the position of Director that some sanity would descend on the mint with regards to it’s pricing structure. I should have learned a lesson from our beloved Congress…oh well. I too, will be deleting a lot of my subscriptions for the ASE’s. I can’t wait to see their pricing on the Au coins.

Craig

I used to shop at Circuit City, remember it well. Now you can find products that they used to specialise in everywhere, With regard to the mint, maybe the government just needs more $$$ for expenses. They have to pay those 87,000 new IRS agents after all! If the mint sells 400,000 of the Pr ASE @ $80, with Ag spot @ $22.40 / oz., they’ll realise over 23 million dollars. Nearly $60 to press a single ASE..not a bad deal…for them.

Domenic Vaiasicca

Well that ends that….no more ASEs for me. Honestly im contemplating just Morgans and Peace from now on and stop even getting the silver proof sets or any other coins. They cant justify those increases with crappy packaging anymore. “You’re gonna lose me soon US mint….. I may end up going back to collecting pocket change coins again.

Craig

I’m with you on this one. I’m going to buy a couple of the Morgans and Peace Dollars this year. Does anyone know what they will be charging for them? I have a couple Tele Vue eyepieces that I want to purchase this year, so that’s where my disposable money will go.

Tom

Craig – the price listed above was $76 for Unc and $80 for proof. that is the planned price, I believe the Mint still reserves the rite to adjust the price based on the price of silver at the time of release.

Craig

Thanks Tom, I just read all the prices. I am curious as to why they didn’t include the Reverse Proof Morgan/Peace Dollar Set in their updated pricing chart. Do I smell something foul coming out of D.C.?

Rich

There was no price increase made for the Morgan and Peace Dollar 2023 Two-Coin Reverse Proof Set Subscription (the current price remained at approx. $175), possibly because it was appropriately “over priced” to begin with and therefore needed no adjustment …if you smell what the Mint is cooking

Caliskier

Rich, I wouldn’t be so sure? One way I look at it is, the 2021’s went for $85 each and that was for an Uncirculated finish.Times 2 and you are already at $170. Proof finished coins usually cost more due to production being slightly more costly, due to die and planchet prep. Then typically Reverse Proof finishes have usually been higher than Proof finishes, price wise. Now, what will the Mint do? Leave the RP set alone or add another notice to the Federal Refister, closer to launch? That would also allow them to tack another $5-$10 on the prices… Read more »

Well. Good old Brandon said he wanted all federal projects 100% American sourced and built. With 3,000 chips per car and him using tax dollars to subsidize building new semiconductor plants, it makes ya wonder if finding that much silver is doable. Price out the few collectors and the metal stock can be diverted to his college buddies that bought into the semiconductor investment. Sounds plausible to me. As my understanding is that the mint has a hard time finding government standard metal as it is. While the prices have jumped, I think it could be inflation catching up to… Read more »

Thanks Dazed and Coinfused, that post pretty much summed it up and as I’ve been known to say, “spot” on! If you don’t mind, I’m copying this post so that when other posters, where I frequent complain about length, “I’ll drop” a bit of “Coinfusion” on them! BAM!

By the way thanks for the LOL’s! “Nina”! Wonder if she’ll be covering the “99 Great Wall Balloons” song you mention?

I apologize for long posts, but I usually try to add some not so common perspective and possibilities. I also try to represent both sides of the argument. Every once in a while I’ll go extra off the rails because I think major d appreciates my efforts. From my very first post, completely innocent, but a couple members took it wrong (don’t recall the post, but do recall the reaction, which was unjust vitriol and animosity toward me for something I didn’t say) also conversation, no matter how striking or controversial can lead to compromise and results. My ideas and… Read more »

I see British and Canadian silver coins are more expensive than our own. $80 for U.S., $126 for Canadian. Maybe we should count our blessings, such as they are.

Caliskier

In all actuality, Kaiser Wilhelm, when comparing, if looking for true “sticker shock”, take a peak at their Platinum pricing. Whoa! Especially when compared to “current” numismatic premium on US vs RCM platinum. Crazy!

Caliskier

I’ll try and keep it short. I think the US Mint is grossly under charging for Pt products, based on what they are charging for gold and Palladium. Pardon me, I’m going to move to the newest thread re: US sales report, to continue a question I have.

Adam L

The reason the RCM is more expensive is the mintage is usually 250 to 400 for the platinum coins. Usmint is $12,000-15,000

Caliskier

Very good point Kaiser Wilhelm and I’d never quite thought of it like that. I will say I gained a lot of shopping experience at both the RCM and US Mint from 2008-2020, so unfortunately I’m well versed in prices, weights, alloys, designs, mintages and such for both. Not sure if that’s a good thing or? It does give me greater insight into what to expect, demand, pricing and mintage wise. I just wish that Congress and the US Mint would follow some of the very successful programs or decisions made by the RCM over these past many years. Like… Read more »

Well, history has shown that gold and silver are the go to money. Whether fleeing war zones and death camps it was traded, or after the great depression it was used and bartered for food, goods, and services in hoovervilles. It sparked several gold rushes. And if people no longer believe in the fiat, they trust the gold. As for housing, food and energy, I think we aren’t as prepared as the greatest generation. We depend too much on others for our food. And most can’t cook it without relying on electricity or energy. The greats could grow their own,… Read more »

The more people don’t buy, the less that are minted and the more the value will go up. Also to note, it looks like Australia and Canada will not be putting Charles III on their money in the future.

Antonio

Just in case anyone is interested, the Canadian $2 Special Wrap Roll – Honouring Queen Elizabeth II is available. A single coin is selling for more than the entire roll.

Antonio, not sure where or if you even intend to p/u some of these, however the best deal, I’m pretty sure will be at or through(sorry guys) Gatewest! Not financial or investment advice, however I’ve had good to Great experiences with them. After taking your V.I.P.Bonus Points discount, you’ll end up at $52.15/roll. 50, yes 50 max per customer. RCM is pumping out to demand, so as long as people are buying, they’ll keep making them. Errors, anyone??? Note: Everyone qualifies for VIP discounts and most products have them. You won’t see the discount until checkout and I recommend buying… Read more »

Uh oh, cats out of the bag? I just checked out the Bay and arbitrage’s that read this may not be happy, as some are currently asking, $100 /roll? Doh!

Antonio

Kaching! Profit already. I don’t have the coins yet and they’re worth more than I paid for them! Sweet!

Caliskier

From my experience when buying direct from the RCM, your CC company will “ding” you with a foreign currency transaction fee. GW does not, as all transactions are completed in US dollars. Sometimes the GW prices don’t “exactly” convert to US vs Canadian dollars, however very close. Somethings have even been lower and for sure they are once you tack on the currency conversion charge. In this instance, you can get them direct from the RCM FOR $59.54 US or GW for $52.25 US. Advantage GW! Not quite sure what you’re asking about in Question 2. However, from what I… Read more »

For me, it’s a day late and a dollar short.

I use a card that doesn’t charge foreign fees

I just got my roll a few days ago. I didn’t realize they were selling for that much

Caliskier

Major D, you are spot on as you have to strike while the iron is hot! Also I’ve been hearing the same regarding the color on the “Ring” not beig black like the pictures depict. This bring me to a PSA re: color and RCM coins. Be careful as not all colors or depicted colors in their advertising accurately reflect what you’ll receive. An example and one I’ve posted a customer review on the RCM website pertains to a 2023 coin(sold out) they offer for sale that has a carved Jade insert. The pictures show a carved piece of “green”… Read more »

Here is my opinion yes these coins are over priced people are going to quit buying them. I would rather spend my money on coins then other bad habbits. How many people spend a hundred dollars or more on a carton of cigarettes and at the end of smoking them what do they have to show for it.Have you ever gone to your doctor and he tells you to quit buying coins rather then telling you to quit smoking?

Antonio

I’m not addicted! I’ve been collecting since 1967 and can quit at anytime, if I want to.

REB

My hands are shaking on the keyboard in anticipation of my next high noon proof fix. No nickel bags for me. Just the good stuff – $100 platinum tokings.

Adam L

I agree. I started collecting coins after I quit using Heroin, cocaine and Methamphetamine. I was easily spending $60-$100 a day. I have been sober since 2007 : )

Floyd

Yep most items u can buy next year cheaper then what the mint is selling it for today.. They over produce and kills the value frim increasing on most items. My biggest complaint and sure alot think the same thing. It says there 25-75k of item being made and there sold out in 3 mins with limit of 1-3.. so how many are the dealer getting before the public can buy. You can Google usmint pricing guide per oz and see what gold, plat, and plad is going for today. Then use there little chart to see how future pricing… Read more »

TheKings714

Not related to pricing but could be helpful in those looking to budget their hard earned money for Mint releases should you be inclined… If you log into the Mint site and review your subscriptions, you can see all the upcoming release dates for products like the Morgan Reverse Proof Set (Nov. 14, 2023) and many others. No need to look at the Product Schedule tab on the site since that just lists general seasons like ‘Fall 2023.’ Apologies if this has been posted here before. You should get a good look before the Ol’ Mint gets wise to their… Read more »

I don’t understand why coins from the US mint need to be 4 times the silver spot price, especially when there is no mintage limit and its not particularly collectable.

John Hill

How can you complain about the prices for the coins or ASEs coins when they are considering lower than a few trustworthy coin dealers( Govmint, Money Metals,or Littleton) just to be a few, which mark up is 75,%, to 100%, over mint price,? Give the mint there due or do you like to pay the mark-up.

Antonio

It’s the new math.

Caliskier

Hate to go there Kaiser Wilhelm and Major D, however if I didn’t know better gang, my wild guess is this is the US Mints version of a rectal thermometer and they are just looking for the most accurate way to gauge their customers temperature collectively? I bet that thermometer is pretty hot and they have generated a ton of “fan mail”? Too many overly odiferous clouds, wafting from out of every US Mint orifice? Smells exactly like the brand name(real)”Fish Shit”, I hear. Mfg by Fish Head Farms based out of Rumford RI! Haven’t tried it yet, as it’s… Read more »

Rectal thermometers taste horrible. I don’t know why people use them.

I have an old American silver coin. Year 1799 with 15 stars. The coin is still in good shape and conditions. May i know what is the value of it. I would like to let go if anyone interested.

guy

Get it professionally graded by PCGS or NGC, and look up its value on their website.

Rooster

Does anyone here know what the mintage of the 2023 silver eagle proofs are? Just got the heads up email from the mint to confirm my subscriptions for the “W” mint eagle. Thinking about taking a few off the table. Thanks!

Rooster

Thanks Major D! Wow almost hitting $100. They way they pumped those mintage numbers last year has me thinking they will do the same again. I was going to cut my subscriptions by 10% but have actually pared them by 50%.

Rooster

Major D: Just wow with these numbers. The W mint used to be my favorite with the ASE. It moved to the bottom of my list. Exception: the uncirculated W. The mint seems to be deceptive by stating a mintage and then slowly we find out that the stated numbers never included the bulk sales.

Rooster

Kaiser: I like how you described the difference. Fancy vs. elegant.

Rooster

I had thought 500,000 but 690,000 is quite a few. It would be nice to see younger people jumping in but am doubtful.

Rooster

Kaiser: Sadly have to agree. Still hope it changes though. I try and do my part with family members but sometimes I think it is futile. I am sure many were sold to the local “buy gold” pawn shops you see on every corner for a fraction of their value.

Rooster

So true.

Rooster

Kaiser: lol I was at a dozen for each but now 1/2 dozen. Ironically, I was subscribed for 25 but cut back to a dozen because of the high production numbers. I may reduce to one next year just to stay in the game.

Rooster

Nothing better than the grands. What a nice gift (2022 silver proof set).
