Description
American Silver Eagle 1 oz
Dates Our Choice – Condition Is Investment Grade
The American Silver Eagle 1 oz issued by the US Mint is one of the most popular silver bullion products sold today.
The front of the coin is based on Adolph Weinman’s popular Walking Liberty Half Dollar design and the reverse features the heraldic eagle design by John Mercanti. Mint production is large and premiums low. Which is why this is one of the most popular silver bullion choices in the world.
Since 1986 the US Mint has produced more than 500 million coins in regular production American Silver Eagle 1 oz coins. The following numbers represent the total amount of Silver Eagles made in that year.
Since 2001 these coins were minted at the West Point facility but when production capacity lagged the Mint also used its San Francisco location. No production coins from either mint contain a Mint Mark and only the date is changed each year.
The US Mint provides pliable plastic tubes which seal tightly, contain 20 coins and will last a lifetime. American Silver Eagle 1 oz coins are also available in Green Monster Boxes which contain 500 coins (25 tubes of 20 coins each).
The colorful term Monster Box was first used by telemarketers and is now common usage among all bullion dealers. The US Mint spared no expense in developing this bullet-proof green plastic box which is shipped all over the world.
There are many reasons why this silver bullion coin is popular: (1) The American Silver Eagle 1 oz contains one ounce of pure silver so pricing is easy. (2) Because weight and purity are guaranteed by the US Government this is a popular choice for Individual Retirement Accounts. (3) Because it is $1.00 Legal Tender they appeal to investors who want barter money in case paper currency is questioned. (4) The American Silver Eagle 1 oz is beautiful and a tribute to the brilliant uncirculated quality produced by the US Mint.

This business is trustworthy. I’ve placed several orders and they are always the lowest price since shipping is free…if you can afford 2k and their is no fees since they allow personal checks. Just be prepared to wait 3 weeks for the personal check to clear. It’s worth it so save the money.

The silver eagle is perhaps the best way to buy silver and CNI is the best place to buy it from. The folks at CNI know how to treat a customer and are bar none the best in the business. They offer fair prices both in buying and selling and are friendly and professional in all of their transactions. I have been a loyal customer for several years and will continue to be one for the foreseeable future!

What can I say, “Outstanding, Honest and Professional Staff”
In June, 2014, I started with one transaction. Harry was my representative. He assisted me with all my questions and concerns. I placed the order over the phone. C.N.I. shipped the order in a very secure and expedient manner. I received exactly what I paid for! Their pricing is straightforward, No games or hidden commissions!
My wife and I have since placed two additional orders. We even visited their location and met the Staff. They have a great operation and quality products! Due their exceptional products and quality service I referred my brother-in-law who has now placed numerous orders. I must also thank Alex for all his assistance he has provided over the past four months!

Short Term investing is useless, long term investing will be good if your willing to wait 10 years for a good return on your investment. Be a smart buyer!

Fabulous! My Silver Eagles arrived today and they are absolutely beautiful. All 2015 mint dates and all in sturdy storage tubes. I highly recommend these folks—-there are no hidden gimmicks and I am always able to speak with a knowledgeable, polite person. I will be placing another order in the near future. Thank you!

CNI has always provided prompt, professional, and courteous service to me. Their high quality gold and silver bullion is great. I’ve bought and sold with them for over 15 years. Every experience has been fantastic. I live in Georgia, so all transactions have been through the mail or by wire. My portfolio of bullion has grown over the years, and I see it as a hedge against uncertain economic times. CNI’s buy and sell prices are the best I’ve found on the internet, and they sure beat dealing with local coin shops.
CheetahOBX –
I have purchased American Silver Dollars from multiple sources and this place has the best pricing bar none! I just wished the purchasing process was quicker. Takes a lot of time to send a check…..have it processed(10+ day hold) and then shipped out. Other than that…..this place is great!!!
