Description
Collectors and investors alike will rejoice in the all-new fifth edition of Whitman’s best-selling American Silver Eagles: A Guide to the U.S. Silver Bullion Coin Program. The book is completely revised, featuring a new Foreword by David Ryder, new date-by-date analysis since 2021, fresh insights on the Type II redesign, updated mintages and specs, stunning images and artwork, and more. Since 1986, more than 673 million American Silver Eagles have been minted and sold, making them the most popular bullion coins in the history of the United States. These coins are treasured by collectors and investors around the world. Authors John M. Mercanti, former 12th Chief Engraver of the U.S. Mint, and David J. Ryder, former 34th and 39th Director of the U.S. Mint, bring to life the story of the Silver Eagle and help celebrate 40 years (1986-2026) of America’s favorite silver bullion coin. Ryder, who worked under four former Presidents, adds behind-the-scenes stories and commentary related to key modern U.S. Mint initiatives and issues, including the 2020 Privy Mark coins, Bucking Bronco American Liberty High Relief Gold Coin, modern Morgan and Peace Dollar issues , and ultimately the Type 2 Silver and Gold Eagle redesign (Flying Eagle reverse) born from, in his words, "a routine marketing meeting." As in previous editions, American Silver Eagles is comprehensive in its date-by-date analysis of all bullion strikes, proofs, special issues, and sets since the first issue in 1986 through 2025. Introductory chapters cover topics such as "How to Collect Silver Eagles," “History of the U.S. Bullion Coin Program,” and “Behind the Scenes of the Mint,” while bonus appendices include even more resources such as collecting checklists, an illustrated catalog of Mercanti’s vast numismatic work, and much more. This award-winning book is a must-have for every coin collector and silver investor! “John Mercanti and David Ryder each bring a wealth of experience and expertise in numismatics, but it’s their connected history, personal relationship, and collaboration that elevate this already best-selling book to an entirely new level!” - John Feigenbaum, President/CEO of Whitman Brands and Publisher of A Guide Book of United States Coins Read more
