0:06
silver eagles this is part of the Bowers
0:08
guide book series from women publishing
0:11
today we're talking about the 10 rare
0:13
and valuable silver eagles that you
0:15
should be looking for okay now a lot of
0:17
folks think of the silver eagle being a
0:19
great bullion coin it's very popular
0:21
with investors but a lot of folks don't
0:23
seem to think about this series as being
0:25
a great collector coin that's a huge
0:27
misnomer as a matter of fact there are
0:30
many many collectors who not only
0:31
collect the silver by date but by mint
0:34
mark and finish and there's a really
0:36
cool other aspect of this series that a
0:39
lot of folks are not aware of and that's
0:40
the Rarity element they going wait a
0:43
minute Rarity well yes as a matter of
0:46
fact there are many silver eagles that
0:47
have very low mtages or might have high
0:50
absolute mtages but are conditionally
0:52
rare in the higher grades we'll show you
0:55
which 10 rare and valuable silver eagles
0:57
those are how much they're worth hint
1:00
hint some are worth thousands of dollars
1:02
no joke and I'm going to show you which
1:04
10 those are so stay tuned first up the
1:07
1986 bullion strike only
1:12
5,393 and5 pieces were struck and get
1:16
this this is the first year that the
1:19
silver eagle was struck so a lot of
1:21
folks want this coin and those who are
1:23
building sets of Silver Eagles need this
1:25
coin so all the demand for the 1986
1:29
silver eagle has push its value really
1:31
quite high on average a typical example
1:34
will cost $65 or
1:37
more next up the 1994 bullan
1:42
strike this coin sawes of Just 4 milon2
1:47
127,128
1:53
but that's not why this coin is on this
1:57
list of 10 valuable and rare silver
2:00
eagles it's actually because it is a
2:03
very difficult coin to find in
2:06
MS70 now why is that well one problem
2:10
that a lot of collectors and investors
2:12
see with mid99s silver eagles is that
2:15
they're commonly seen with milk spots
2:18
which are basically white blotches that
2:19
appear in the coin that many think were
2:21
caused by a type of wash the mint user
2:24
in the plant of preparation process back
2:26
in those days because of the presence of
2:29
milk spots and so many 1994 silver
2:31
eagles they're very hard to find in a
2:34
Grade of MS70 which would imply a
2:36
perfect looking coin an example an MS70
2:40
will set you back on average
2:44
$5,000 the third coin on our list of
2:46
rare and valuable silver eagles the 1995
2:49
W proof the Undisputed King of the
2:53
series this very rare American Silver
2:55
Eagle was struck at the West Point mint
2:58
and included as a freebie in 19 1995
3:00
American Gold Eagle set just
3:03
3,125 were struck today this coin is
3:07
worth
3:09
$3,500 and up next up the 1996 bullion
3:14
strike this is indeed one of the 10 rare
3:17
invaluable silver eagles as only
3:20
3,63 386 for made making it actually the
3:24
key to the bullion arm of the series
3:27
values range from about $85 and up our
3:31
fifth coin on this list of rare and
3:33
valuable silver eagles the 2006 P
3:36
reverse
3:37
proof struck to commemorate the 20th
3:40
anniversary of the silver eagle series
3:42
the proof elements on this coin are
3:45
reversed from typical on most proof
3:48
coins generally on proof coins of the
3:51
modern era at least you'll find that the
3:54
fields or the flat areas of the proof
3:57
coin have a mirror-like appearance while
3:59
the r raise elements the devices have a
4:01
frosty appearance on this coin that's
4:04
reversed the devices the raise elements
4:07
are actually reflective whereas the flat
4:10
elements or the fields have a frosty
4:12
appearance fewer than a quar million
4:14
were struck and today the value for this
4:16
coin is around
4:18
$165 or more as we reach the halfway
4:21
point in our list of 10 rare and
4:23
valuable silver eagles we come to the
4:26
2008 W burnished reverse of 2007
4:30
wow that's a mouthful right it's also
4:33
the most important variety of the entire
4:35
American Silver Eagle series you see at
4:38
that time the M was moving from an
4:40
analog process of preparing dyes to a
4:42
digital process and some of the changes
4:45
that occurred in the transition were
4:47
that some of the fonts of the lettering
4:48
on the coins took on a different
4:50
appearance what you see on the reverse
4:52
of this particular variety is that the U
4:55
of the word United actually resembles
4:59
the U that was seen on pre2 2008 silver
5:02
eagles so in 2008 the letter U would
5:06
obtain a little like a leg or a stub in
5:09
the bottom right but you don't see that
5:10
in this coin it actually the U has a
5:14
rounded bottom to it like the pre2 2008
5:17
lettering would look like about 47,000
5:21
examples of this coin were thought to
5:22
have been struck and today this piece is
5:25
worth
5:26
$450 or more coin number 7 the 2011 P
5:31
reverse
5:32
proof this is a 25th Anniversary coin
5:36
that was made for the series and fewer
5:39
than 100,000 were struck it's indeed a
5:41
scarce coin that's high in demand and
5:43
worth
5:44
$250 or more coin number eight in this
5:49
list of 10 rare and valuable silver
5:51
eagles brings us to yet another reverse
5:54
proof this time it's the 2012 s reverse
5:59
proof
6:00
only
6:28
224,000 flag the lines of his Liberty
6:31
dress and various elements of the
6:34
devices held by the eagle on the reverse
6:36
a light frosted finish on the obverse
6:38
and reverse field and a heavy frosted
6:41
finish on the remaining Design Elements
6:43
and the inscriptions this coin's
6:45
distinctive appearance lures so many
6:47
collectors in one in an example of their
6:48
own and prices start at a whopping
6:53
$150 finally we arrive at coin number 10
6:57
the 2019s enhanced reverse
7:00
proof fewer than 30,000 were struck
7:03
making actually rarer than the 1995 W
7:05
proof that so many called the king of
7:07
the series when the 19s enhanced reverse
7:10
proof was first issued by the United
7:12
States Mint back on November 14th 2019
7:15
it sold for a price of
7:18
$65.95 and I surely hope you bought that
7:20
coin at that price back then because
7:22
today this coin is worth
7:27
$1,250 there you have it 10 rare and
7:30
