An Eagle Silver Dollar is a great investment not just for
the 1 troy ounce of silver content, but also for the collectability of
this very popular silver bullion coin. The obverse (face) of the
Eagle Silver Dollar has a hopeful walking statue of liberty. This is known as
the "Walking Liberty" design by renowned sculptor/engraver Adolph Weinman. The reverse is a striking heraldic eagle designed by John
Mercanti. Silver American Eagle Dollars were first introduced in 1986
and have been produced ever since. While the current price for an
uncirculated silver eagle is very reasonable at around $20; the
price starts climbing from there for collecting. For example a 1986
Eagle Silver Dollar PCGS graded MS-70 is currently valued at $4000!
Even American Eagle Silver coins in good uncirculated condition are commanding
a premium.
expect to pay slightly above the current silver bullion price for
a recent year uncirculated silver eagles.
Collector quality premiums go up from there!
