American Silver Eagle Coins

American Silver Eagle coins are considered a strong investment option for several reasons. First, they are backed by the U.S. government for weight, content, and purity, making them one of the most trusted silver bullion coins in the world. Each coin contains one troy ounce of .999 fine silver, offering a tangible asset that can help hedge against inflation and economic uncertainty.

Additionally, Silver Eagles are highly liquid, meaning they are easily bought and sold through dealers like Monex. Their popularity and recognizability make them appealing to both investors and collectors, often commanding a premium over the spot price of silver, especially for coins in excellent condition.

However, like all precious metals, their value can fluctuate based on market conditions, so they are best viewed as a long-term store of value rather than a short-term profit vehicle. Overall, American Silver Eagles can be a prudent addition to a diversified investment portfolio.

Over the long term, American Silver Eagle investments have fared quite well.  Visit our Silver American Eagle price charts page to view historical pricing data and up-to-the-minute silver prices.

However, investors often purchase more when economic or geopolitical uncertainty in the markets and around the world rises. To learn more about buying silver and silver investing, be sure to visit our "Expert Views on Silver" section.

Payment may be made after you order, but must be initiated on the day of purchase, which means you must mail or wire funds on the very same day of your transaction. You can have your metal shipped to your home, made available for pick-up at over 30 facilities across the U.S. and Canada, or have your metal delivered to a bank/depository for storage.

First, compare what a dealer quotes as his “spot” silver price. Monex prides itself on having the most respected and transparent singular spot price in the silver coin industry. The purchasing price, or ask price of the coin over spot, can vary quite significantly according to supply and demand market anomalies, but tends to be about three dollars per coin above spot. Be aware that “over spot” depends on the spot you are using as compared to a reliable spot pricing mechanism. It's easy to find a benchmark for American Silver Eagle prices at Monex, where you can view the longstanding Monex Spot pricing and ask prices for American Silver Eagles.

The purchase price of a one ounce American Silver Eagle is at the Monex Ask price. In addition, there are charges such as commission and shipping. There is no shipping charge if you select depository delivery. Today's Ask price per coin for buying in units of one hundred is: $82.13.

Silver coin investors should consider that when one desires to liquidate their American Silver Eagles for cash, exiting the investment is as important as entering the transaction. A true two-way market with sizable transaction volume offers investors the ability to both purchase and sell their metal at very competitive prices. Monex Deposit Company has executed over $70 billion in physical customer precious metals transactions.

As a commodity, the price of silver fluctuates from minute-to-minute throughout the day, and from day-to-day throughout the week. The current price of silver is the result of all buyers and sellers across the globe meeting at transaction prices, according to combined supply and demand forces. The availability of supplies of silver from mines, scrap recovery, government stockpile disposals and investor liquidations versus the demand from industrial uses, jewelry/silverware fabrication and investor acquisitions are the driving force behind silver's worldwide marketplace prices.

Today, the factors most notably influencing silver prices are: (a) The unparalleled degree of geopolitical uncertainty making silver an exceptional investment alternative. (b) Ever-increasing industrial uses due to silver's unique reflective and conductive properties, especially in batteries and electronics. (c) Growth in demand for medical applications using silver as a more organic antibiotic agent for germicide and disinfectant purposes. (d) The loss in silver demand from the declining film photography sector. However significant, declining photography demand is replaced, to an extent, by incredible demand from electronics as film's replacement. One sector with exceptional potential is the 'photovoltaic' necessity of silver in solar panels, which could see phenomenal global growth.

It is easy to confirm that Monex offers some of the best prices on silver American Eagle coins by comparing our prices with those of other dealers. But what sets Monex apart is that we also feature transparent pricing. We publish both ask and bid prices on our website. That “spread” – the difference between our “ask” and “bid” prices – tends to be far less than many other dealers. We also offer lower Atlas Preferred Prices on purchases made with the Monex Atlas Account on several of our bullion and coin products. Call us today to learn more about Monex’s pricing advantages.

Almost every investment in physical metal is unique. For this reason, calculating shipping timing for a unique silver purchase is not a universal answer. The delivery of your metal is dependent on a variety of factors, including the quantity of metal, the time of your purchase, and other relevant details.

On average, physical metal will leave the shipping facility two to five days after confirmed, reliable good funds are received. Upon receipt of payment and confirmation of reliable good funds, Monex will direct one of its independent shipping facilities to package and assign it to either USPS or UPS for delivery. You will then receive an email or a telephone notification of your shipment’s tracking number.

During periods of extremely high shipping volume, you will be notified if any delays are anticipated. Call a Monex account representative to learn more about estimated shipping times for your unique investment.

Silver coins have great weight and volume for your investment dollars, which may present a storage challenge. Most people could not carry $25,000 of silver coins without a wheelbarrow, whereas that amount of gold could fit in the palm of your hand. For this reason, investors of silver coins should take into consideration where they will store their purchase, and is why investors purchasing larger quantities of silver tend to use a bank/depository storage facility. The silver coins most preferred for depository storage are the two most popular and liquid coins in the world, the U.S. Silver American Eagle and the Royal Canadian Mint's Silver Maple Leaf.

If you choose to store your silver coins in this way, we will deliver your investment with full title and ownership in your name to one of the independent bank/depository facilities that provide storage for Monex customers. When your metal is received by the bank/depository, the custodian of the facility will send you a document acknowledging the receipt and your ownership of the silver being stored in your name.

All shipments of silver products to you are insured against loss or damage in transit. If you decide to have your silver delivered to and stored by a bank/depository, the metal is fully insured in transit and also while in storage.

You could spend many hours, or even days, searching the internet for the answers to your questions about purchasing and owning precious metals.
