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 San Francisco Mint to the Rescue
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. What made matters worse was the fact that the COVID-19 pandemic ignited a silver-buying frenzy that saw the U.S. Mint struggling to keep up with demand long after the West Point Mint got back up and running. But Mint officials didn’t throw in the towel. Instead, in the fall of 2020 they began producing bullion Silver Eagles San Francisco to meet the demand.
In this offer you can secure a five-pack of these 2020-dated American Silver Eagle bullion coins specially struck at the San Francisco Mint. 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 San Francisco Mint or the West Point Mint. Then, we sent the coins to the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC), where they we certified, graded and pedigreed as being “Struck at San Francisco Mint” and “Emergency Production” issues.
Near Flawless High-Grade Emergency Production Silver Eagles
In addition, every bullion Silver Eagle available in this offer has been graded by NGC as being in near-perfect Mint State-69 (MS69) condition, a distinction that means these almost-flawless coins showcase impressive full strikes and indistinguishable imperfections — well above and beyond the quality of the vast majority of coins in the series. Plus, NGC has certified that these Silver Eagles are First Releases (FR) coins, a designation that means they were received by NGC or an NGC-approved depository within the first 30 days of their release. Collectors seek out these coins because they are produced with new dies and considered to have sharper strikes and deeper mirrors than those that are struck later. Each will also come sonically sealed in an acrylic holder with a unique black display core and encapsulated with an exclusive Heraldic Eagle label.
Although the U.S. Mint has not yet confirmed the mintage for these 2020(S) Struck at San Francisco pedigree Silver Eagles, it is miniscule compared to the bullion American Silver Eagles that are struck annually by the West Point Mint. These 2020(S) Silver Eagle Struck At San Francisco Emergency Production coins will be key collectibles within any Silver Eagle collection. Order yours today and make sure they’re part of yours!
