2020(P) $1 1-oz Silver Eagle Struck At Philadelphia Emergency Production PCGS MS70 First Strike

Silver Eagles Join the Fight Against COVID-19

Thanks to the spread of COVID-19 that has affected millions of people around the world, terms like “shelter in place,” “social distancing” and “self-quarantine” have become common everyday phrases. The pandemic has touched almost everyone and even affected America’s money supply when the United States Mint was forced to temporarily shut down operations at its West Point Mint facility.

The news of the West Point Mint’s closure in 2020 from April 8-20 was met with concern across the coin collecting community and by silver stackers around the world because supplies of silver coins were already dwindling. And, since the West Point Mint is the U.S. Branch Mint that typically strikes American Silver Eagle bullion coins, folks were justifiably worried. But Mint officials didn’t throw in the towel. Instead, they shifted production of bullion Silver Eagles from West Point to Philadelphia for two weeks to meet the demand.

The Philadelphia Mint struck just 240,000 bullion Silver Eagles over the course of two weeks making this limited striking the second lowest mintage of Silver Eagles ever struck! Since bullion Silver Eagles are struck without mintmarks, however, there’s no way collectors can know if their Silver Eagle is one of these “Emergency Production” releases. But thanks to our status within the coin world, we can!

As an authorized re-seller of American Silver Eagles, we’ve been able to secure “monster boxes” that differentiate whether the coins were struck at the Philadelphia Mint or the West Point Mint. Then, we sent the coins to the Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS), where they we certified, graded and pedigreed as being “Struck at Philadelphia Mint” and “Emergency Production” issues.

In addition, every bullion Silver Eagle available in this offer has been graded by PCGS as being in flawless Mint State-70 (MS70) condition, a distinction that means these perfectly-graded coins will have ZERO imperfections — showing all features and fields exactly as the engraver and mint intended. Plus, PCGS has certified that these Silver Eagles are First Strike (FS) coins, a designation that means they were received by PCGS or an PCGS-approved depository within the first 30 days of their release. Each will also come sonically sealed in an acrylic holder with a white display core and a green PCGS label.

This 2020(P) Silver Eagle Struck At Philadelphia Emergency Production coin will be a key collectible within any Silver Eagle collection. Order yours today and make sure it’s part of yours!
