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).

Record High Gold Price?

This week, the price of gold reached an all-time high price against the U.S. dollar. It closed Wednesday this week on the COMEX at $1,953.50 per troy ounce, well above even intraday gold prices during the previous peak in September 2011. Gold had previously set all-time high record prices against almost every other world currency last week. However, this record-high gold price needs to be noted with an asterisk. The reason the asterisk is needed is that the value of the U.S. dollar itself has declined over the years. As a consequence, the price of gold this week, if compared to a U.S. dollar of consistent purchasing power, is lower than the previous peak price in September 2011 of about $1,924 and even further below the January 1980 peak of about $850. To give you some idea of the instability of the value of the U.S. dollar, just compare the M2 definition of the U.S. money supply, courtesy of the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis: January 1980:      ...
