Money Metals Exchange is pleased to offer the world's most popular silver coin - the American Silver Eagle - with the 2016 date. The US Mint has been minting the American Silver Eagle 1 oz coin, since 1986. Like our bullion coins, such as the Canadian Maple, each American Silver Eagle contains a minimum of one troy ounce of .999 pure silver. The weight and purity of each Silver Eagle coin is backed by the US government.

Introduced in 1986, the American Silver Eagle coin weighs in at one ounce of silver (99.9% pure silver guarantee), authorized by Title II of public law 99-61 and certified by the United States Mint. US Mint Silver Eagles have a very strong sales history, having immediately sold out when released in 1986 and at many times since. Its popularity continues, as evidenced by its 2014/2015 record breaking sales figures. In 2014 alone, an estimated 44 million coins were struck and sold, rising to approximately 47 million in 2015.

At several times in recent years, the mint had to postpone or ration sales of the coin due to high demand! Government mismanagement is part of the reason for the scarcity at times, but that is not the only reason. What makes this coin so popular?

The coin’s striking design is one reason. America has often been represented by its symbolic images - whether this be the statue of liberty or the stars and stripes on the US flag.
