American Silver Eagle Sets (1986–)

American Silver Eagles are among the most popular bullion coins in the world, and they have increasingly become well loved by numismatists, many of whom collect these coins not as bullion products but rather as collectible coins. Many American Silver Eagles are issued by the mint with special finishes, including burnished finishes, as well as examples in proof and reverse proof formats. While many of these coins are sold individually, they are also often sold in sets of multiple coins.

These sets of American Silver Eagles are typically issued in limited quantities and have crossover appeal as collectibles for diehard coin collectors, special bullion investment holdings for precious metals speculators, and as gifts for non-numismatists. These factors help ensure the perennial popularity of American Silver Eagle sets, even in the secondary market many years after a given set has been offered by the US Mint.
