There are many coins that are sold on the website Golden Eagle Coins for it's customers. The website focuses mainly on older coins that are silver and gold and even purchases both.
Silver Eagle Roll coins are made and sold through the New York Mint. You can find more about how to order one from their website. It is possible to buy them from collectors as well though.
This depends as to what you classify as rare. Currently the most expensive coin ever sold is the 1933 golden saint gaudens eagle worth over 20 million dollars.
These were sold as bullion coins and track the price of silver, about $17/oz at this point. Those sold in "government packaging" should be proof coins. A 1992 S proof eagle should retail in the neighborhood of $60.
With a date of 1971 the coin is not a silver eagle it's a Eisenhower dollar with a value of $1.00 for coins found in circulation.. Only collectors coins sold from the US Mint have a premium above face value.
Although the most famous is the 1933 $20 Double Eagle gold coin that sold for more than 7 million dollars all series of US coins have collectible coins in them.
There is no doubt that the 1933 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle is the most valuable US coin. One of these coins recently sold at auction for over 7 million dollars.
Always buy coins, well known and collected coins such as the American Silver Eagle or the Canadian Maple leaf. They sell for a small premium above spot silver price, but are much easier to liquidate because their silver content is known. The Silver Eagle has numismatic value too, some coins that were sold as bullion are now worth thousands.
Yes, but none of the coins were made for general circulation. Silver Proof quarters sets and Silver Proof 10-piece sets were sold by the Mint, also the American Silver Eagle bullion coins were minted in 2006.
Sales data varies depending on the source, the best I found is: Bullion coins 3,466,000 Proof 498,293
Depends on year Please post a new and more specific question - "eagle" can refer to a $10 gold coin minted up till 1933, or any of a number of current bullion coins sold to collectors and investors.
It's a gold bullion coin issued by South Africa, similar to the American Eagle or Canadian Maple Leaf coins. They're sold for their gold content, not for spending.
Modern "eagle" coins contain 1 troy ounce, or about 31.1 gm, of 99.9% pure silver. These coins aren't really dollars because they're sold to collectors and investors at market silver prices. Older $1 coins that were intended for use in ordinary commerce are sometimes mistakenly called "eagle dollars" by people who aren't familiar with the two types of coins. They weighed 26.7 gm and were made of 90% silver so they contain about 24 gm of pure silver.
