American Silver Eagle 25th Anniversary Set Coming

The U.S. Mint announced that they will issue a limited-edition five coin silver set to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the American Eagle program.

The United States Mint American Eagle 25th Anniversary Silver Coin Set will include five one-ounce American Eagle Silver Coins:
  1. one proof coin from the United States Mint at West Point
  2. one uncirculated coin from the United States Mint at West Point
  3. one uncirculated coin from the United States Mint at San Francisco
  4. one reverse proof coin from the United States Mint at Philadelphia
  5. one bullion coin
All five coins will be mounted in one custom-designed, highly polished, lacquered hardwood presentation case accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.

The U.S. Mint plans to produce 100,000 of these set with a limit of 5 sets per household. They anticipates accepting orders in late October. Price has not been set.

The reverse proof American Silver Eagle appeared in the 20th anniversary set in 2006. It is am impressive looking coin of the Adolph A. Weinman’s Walking Liberty design. I will definitely be working the phones and online to order sets of these coins.

The American Eagle Gold Bullion Coin is the best-selling gold bullion coin in the world. As the United States Mint prominently mentions in all of its marketing literature, each and every American Eagle is guaranteed by the U.S. government for weight, content and purity. When it comes to us gold coins, the American Eagle tops them all.
