Today, there is a growing interest in American Silver Dollars which is a trend seen that is increasing where the value of US Dollar continues to decline. There has been huge demand recently for these silver eagles; and notice that people are not buying these seriously and for the long term. Basing on this current trend for the people’s interest; there will probably be a good increase in the value of silver dollars.

This year, the 2011 proof silver eagles will be available for sale. This can be bought from authorized distributors and select coin dealers by the middle part of January. These are sure to be hot sales as seen from the records where sales during the month of November 2010 broke numerous records. There is no other month in the coin's history that has seen greater sales than this including December of 1986, when the coin was available for sale to the public.

If you are still wondering whether investing in the 2011 American Silver Eagle still makes since when the price of the silver today is only $30 an ounce, many people are on the positive side. Here are some reasons why it is good to invest in this silver coin:

1. This is the only silver coin that is allowed to be added in your retirement account therefore it is good to add them to your IRA.

2. The silver bullion coins, with its silver purity, weight and content are guaranteed by the U.S. government. Upon purchase of a silver eagle, you can be sure that you are getting one ounce of pure silver guaranteed at 99.9%.

3. The silver coins are highly recognized everywhere and are therefore sold easily. Buying or selling these coins from online dealers or local coin shops is no trouble at all.

4. When selling these coins, there is no need to report the sale to the IRS, unlike with doing it with some precious metals. There is no need to worry because no matter how many coins you sell, you'll be able to skip most of the time-consuming tax forms that often need to be filed when selling other types of investments.

5. With the price of silver trading now at $30 an ounce, think of the profit you can make like when the price of silver closed at $16.99 an ounce in December of 2009.

Nobody knows what the price of silver will become in 2011. But judging from the current factors that made the metal interesting and attractive in 2010, such as weak US dollar value, investor demand, inflation and recession worries and uncertainty about the global financial system; this will probably increase in value.

Buying the beautiful 2011 American Silver Eagle Coin, or 2011 Proof Silver Eagle should end up being a smart investment in 2011. Now is the time to place your order because the U.S. Mint is limiting the allocation of 2011 Silver American Eagles to distributors.

With the increased demand for American Silver Eagles, there has been a concurrent rise in interest for American Proof Silver Eagle Proof coins. Proof Silver Eagle coins are a collectible version of the silver bullion coin released by the United States Mint. In the past, Proof coins have sold out quickly soon after release, and with only a limited number of coins in production each year, that could happen again this year.

The model for the obverse of the U.S. Mint's bullion and proof Silver Eagle is one of the most popular of American patterns, the Walking Liberty Silver Half-Dollar. This wonderful design shows Lady Liberty, covered in Old Glory and bearing laurel and oak branches as she steps proudly forward into a new day. "LIBERTY" is proudly stamped along the top of the Proof Silver Eagle and "IN GOD WE TRUST" is emblazoned near Liberty's calf.

The reverse of the Proof Silver Eagle has an American eagle with the heraldic shield holding an olive branch in one talon and arrows in the other, as designed by John Mercanti. Just above the eagle is an upside down pyramid and 13 stars, each star representing one of the original 13 colonies. The eagle is surrounded by the words, "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA - 1 OZ FINE SILVER - ONE DOLLAR".

Only the best dies are employed in a very stringent procedure to produce the Proof American Eagle coins. The presses are fed manually, where the beautiful coin blanks are struck several times, providing a clean and crisp image. The process generates a pattern that seems to be lightly frosted across a brilliant mirror surface, so that each Proof Silver Eagle has its own unique appearance.

Your Proof Silver Eagle coin is carefully shipped in a stunning, midnight blue velvet protective case (shown right), complete with a Certificate of Authority from the United States Mint. The certificate guarantees the silver content, weight and purity of each Proof Silver Eagle, as assured by the United States government.

Does a 1986 American Eagle Silver Dollar increase in value as time goes on? ?

Someone offered me $22 for a proof 1986 American Eagle silver dollar that I own, mint in velvet box with certificate of authenticity. I've been doing my home work on this and they usually sell for around that price, I think it's fair. What I'm wondering is, is it worth selling now for $22 or would it increase in value as time goes on?

For that matter, does any one know if the same applies for an 1883 Morgan Dollar?

Thanks!

How To Invest In Silver

Silver has recently experienced some renewed interest as a precious metals investment. Earlier this year, the price of silver exceeded the $20 per ounce level. This marked a twenty seven year high, but was still short of its all time high above $50 per ounce reached in 1980. In recent months, the price of silver has declined below the $10 level, but that has only seemingly intensified investment interest in the metal. There are a variety of methods for making an investment in silver.

The most common method for investing in silver is through government issued bullion coins. The two most popular choices are the American Silver Eagle issued by the United States and the Silver Maple Leaf issued by Canada. These coins are issued by the governments and contain one ounce of silver and are distributed through a network of authorized dealers. The coins can be purchased for a set premium above the precious metals value. The premium generally covers the cost of manufacturing and distributing the coins plus government and dealer profit margins. Depending on the coins, there may also be a numismatic premium attached if the coins are considered to be collectible. Recently, premiums for Silver Eagles and Silver Maple Leafs have expanded as demand has grown.

A second, related method for investing in silver is through generic silver rounds. These are usually privately minted coins with various designs. In some cases, even custom designs can be ordered. Each round usually contains one ounce of silver. Silver rounds have much smaller premiums above precious metal cost as compared to Silver Eagles and Silver Maple Leafs.

Prior to 1964, the United States minted dollars, half dollars, quarter dollars, and dimes in 90% silver. After 1964, certain coins were minted in 40% silver. Some people choose to invest in silver by purchasing bulk lots of 90% or 40% silver coins. If the coins have little collectible value, they are referred to as junk silver. Junk silver is generally purchased in bags containing $1,000 face value of coins. For 90% silver coins this equates to 715 ounces of silver. There are some benefits of buying junk silver. First, although the coins supposedly have no collectible value, a thorough search through the coins may prove otherwise. Second, the coins are considered legal tender and have a floor value of the $1,000 face value.

A less common,
1000
but increasingly popular method for investing in silver is through 100 ounce or 1,000 ounce silver bars. In the past, this has been the way to purchase silver with the lowest premium above the precious metal value. This dynamic has changed in recent months, with 100 ounce bars sometimes carrying premiums of 40% above the market price of silver. Premiums for 1,000 ounce bars have also expanded, but not as dramatically.

A final method for investment can be accomplished through an electronically traded fund or ETF. The Silver ETF allows individuals to invest in the precious metal without physically purchasing and storing it using one of the methods explained above. Instead shares of the ETF can be purchased in a brokerage account. Each share of the ETF represents a predetermined amount of silver less annual custodial expenses. As shares of the ETF are issued or redeemed, silver is bought or sold from a trust. In theory, the price of the Silver ETF should track the price of the physical metal.
