United States Mint American Eagle Silver Bullion Coin Sales Break Record

silvereaglerevThe United States Mint has announced record sales of American Eagle Silver Bullion Coins for the second consecutive year.

Driven by investor demand around the globe, sales of American Eagle Silver Bullion coins on Monday, Dec. 8, 2014, were 495,500. That brought the annual total to date to a record 42,864,000 for Calendar Year 2014, beating the previous record of 42,675,000 coins sold in 2013. We will continue to sell the remaining inventory of 2014-dated coins, under allocation, until inventory is depleted. Based on current demand, we anticipate having enough coins to offer allocations through the week of December 15th.

“Our American Eagle Gold and Silver Bullion Coins remain the coin of choice for investors around the world,” said United States Mint Deputy Director Dick Peterson. “We are proud of our role as a leader in the global bullion coin market.”
