1996 Silver Eagle BU
1996 American Silver Eagle – Lowest-Mintage BU Key of the Entire Series
True Key-Date Scarcity: Just 3,603,386 bullion strikes were issued, the smallest regular-issue mintage of any Silver Eagle from 1986-2025.
One Troy Ounce of .999 Fine Silver: Backed by the U.S. government for weight and purity and eligible for most precious-metals IRAs.
Collector Premium Already Baked-In: Certified MS-69s hover in the $90-$200 range on recent sales, while elusive MS-70s command $2,500–$3,500+ thanks to a microscopic PCGS population of roughly 50 pieces.
Market-Tested Upside: Auction records show perfect-grade examples consistently clearing the four-figure bar, with some sales hammering MS-70s at $2,880–$3,120 in 2023-24.
Eye-Appeal Guaranteed: We hand-select lustrous, brilliant-uncirculated specimens—no cloudy surfaces or heavy contact marks—perfect for a top-date Silver Eagle set.
Risk-Free Purchase: Enjoy our 14-day, no-questions-asked return window. If the coin fails to impress, send it back for a full refund.
Extremely Limited Stock: Most 1996 Eagles are locked away in long-term collections; replacement cost rises every time silver or registry demand spikes. Act now before this key date takes its next leap.
