US Mint Uncirculated Silver Eagles Still on Sale
The 2009 Silver Eagle coin cancellations sting many collectors the most following yesterday's US Mint announcement that it would not offer several long awaited and anticipated 2009 products.
For many weeks now, collector questions, concerns and worry increased about the possibility of this very thing happening -- especially to the proof Silver Eagle. The thought of forever having a gapping hole in a 23-year old collection is severely disappointing, but now a reality.
Of interesting note, there is still a means to buy an uncirculated 2008-dated American Silver Eagle directly from the US Mint. One is included in the 2008 US Mint Annual Uncirculated Dollar Set for $37.95.
The set includes the collector eagle as well as four 2008 Presidential $1 Coins from the United States Mint at Philadelphia, and a Sacagawea Golden Dollar from the United States Mint at Denver.
