2016-W $1 1-oz Silver Eagle 30th Anniversary Congratulations Set NGC PF69UC - Mercanti Signed Label, Black Core

Secure this Scarce 2016 Silver Eagle and You’ll Be Saying “Congratulations!”

In 2016, the Silver Eagle celebrated its 30th anniversary by adding edge lettering to its design for the first time ever. Demand soared, and coins struck in Proof condition (with shimmering fields and frosty designs) presented the best possible example of the coin’s legendary design.

These Silver Eagles are from the 2016 United States Mint Congratulations Sets, and they are by far, the most sought-after prize from the 30th anniversary mintage. The distinctive sets included a special mint-produced presentation folder with space inside to write a personal message, presumably to a recipient who was receiving the set as a gift to acknowledge an important event or milestone like a wedding, graduation or anniversary. These sets were comprised of proof Silver Eagles minted exclusively at the West Point Mint. Compared to other 2016-dated Silver Eagle Proofs, these are much more limited.

Each of the 2016-dated Congratulations Silver Eagle Proofs available in this offer have been graded by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC) to be in near-perfect Proof-69 (PF69) condition, a distinction that means your almost-flawless 2016 One-Ounce Silver Eagle “Congratulations” Proof will showcase an impressive full strike and indistinguishable imperfections – well above and beyond the quality of the vast majority of coins in the series.

If that wasn’t enough, your proof will also have a special label personally signed by John Mercanti, the U.S. Mint’s 12^th Chief Engraver and the genius behind the Heraldic Eagle design on the coin’s reverse. The label and your proof will be sonically sealed in an acrylic case with a black display core – giving you the best in protection while granting clear sightlines into every beautiful detail.

Here’s where the scarcity reaches epic levels: With a limited mintage of just 5,966, the 2016 One-Ounce Silver Eagle “Congratulations” Proof is the lowest Proof Silver Eagle struck since 1986!
