Collector Favorite Returns for 2019

The perfect gift for any occasion, the 2019 American Eagle One Ounce Silver Proof Coin is also a collector favorite, as it is the collector version of the Mint’s American Eagle Silver Bullion coin.

The obverse (heads) features Adolph A. Weinman’s full-length figure of Liberty in full stride, enveloped in folds of the flag, with her right hand extended and branches of laurel and oak in her left.

The reverse (tails) features a heraldic eagle with shield, an olive branch in the right talon and arrows in the left.

Each coin contains one troy ounce of .999 fine silver and bears the “S” mint mark reflecting its striking at the San Francisco Mint.  Coins are specially packaged in a blue velvet, satin-lined presentation case accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.

According to the Mint’s website, 158,785 of the 2018 coin were sold.  Based on the final reporting date of Jan. 27, 2019, the coin sold out in less than five months.  So don’t wait too long to order yours!

The Mint accepts orders at catalog.usmint.gov/ and 1-800-USA-MINT (872-6468).

Viewpoint: PNG warns bullion buyers of risks

Editor’s Note: The following is a warning issued by the Professional Numismatists Guild. Following the recent fraud charges filed by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission against a California gold seller, a trade group composed of veteran precious metals experts is urging investors to take three important steps before making any purchases of gold, silver or platinum ​bullion ​coins or ingots. “To avoid paying too much when you buy or receiving too little when you sell, and to avoid potential scams, investors absolutely must know the credentials of the bullion dealer, not just what the dealer may tout on TV advertisements or with a fancy website,” cautioned Barry Stuppler of Woodland Hills, California, President of the nonprofit Professional Numismatists Guild ( www.PNGdealers.org ). “If you don’t know gold, you’d better know your gold dealer,” Stuppler emphasized. The Temecula, California-based Professional Numismatists Guild (PNG) was founded in 1955. Two years ago, PNG establ...
