A True Collecting Rarity – The 1st ever Philadelphia Proof Silver Eagle!

The 1993 Proof Silver Eagle was struck at the Philadelphia Mint and was the first of its kind ever struck at the ‘Mother Mint, as the Philadelphia Mint is known amongst collectors. (this nickname arose due to the fact that every branch mint’s dies are created at the Philadelphia Mint!)

This First-year ‘Mother Mint’ Proof Silver Eagle has cemented its place in history as the 2nd rarest Proof Eagle ever made thanks to its miniscule mintage of just 405,913! For perspective, the first year of issue Proof Silver eagle from San Francisco in 1986 had a mintage of 1,446,778 – More than 3 times the 1993 Philadelphia Mintage!

Each Proof Silver Eagle is a double struck, highly polished coin with a mirror like finish that are truly the best of the best!

The Longest Running Silver Dollar in American History: The Silver Eagle

The Silver Eagle is the longest tenured silver dollar in United States Minting history, at over 33 years old it is now 5 years older than the Fabled Morgan Dollar Series (Minted for 28 total years)! A Large part of its popularity is due to the fact that it hits what we like to call the “Collector's Tri-Fecta”: it is the largest, heaviest and purest silver coin in U.S. history. It is struck from one full ounce of .9993 pure American silver and is even larger and heavier than the legendary Morgan Silver Dollar.

The Silver Eagle's metal content is not the only reason it is famous, it is also revered for its beautiful design: The Lady Liberty wrapped in the American Flag, a scene that is considered to be one of the greatest symbols of American Freedom. The design is a true classic that was first used on Silver Half Dollars from 1916-1947. Since its introduction in 1986, the Silver Eagle has quickly become the World's #1 Silver Dollar.
