No 1 oz silver coin in the world outpaces the American Silver Eagle. Introduced in 1986, this coin set enormous sales records during the Great Recession from 2008 to 2011 and has seen demand unlike other silver bullion coins. Right now, 1988 1 oz American Silver Eagle Coins are available to purchase online from JM Bullion in near-perfect condition.
Coin Highlights:
Each available 1988 1 oz American Silver Eagle Coin in this listing comes with a near-perfect certification from the PCGS. Coins with a Mint State 69 grade exhibit full, original mint luster with a maximum of just two minor detracting flaws. Those flaws consist only of minuscule contact marks and hairlines and must be located outside the primary focal points of the coin.
After flying high during the first two years of availability, the American Silver Eagle coin program entered an extended period of cooling demand in 1988. The pent up demand for silver precious metals had been met by the release of nearly 17 million American Silver Eagles during the first two years. Mintage for the 1988 American Silver Eagle was less than half the previous year at just 5,004,646 coins. Although silver prices were up in 1988, the average of $6.53 per ounce throughout the year was not substantially higher than 1987.
On the obverse side of American Silver Eagles is the image of Walking Liberty. This design was created by Adolph A. Weinman in 1916 and was one of two designs he created that year for American circulation coins. Walking Liberty originally appeared on the US half-dollar coin from 1916 to 1947.
The reverse of 1988 1 oz American Silver Eagles features one of the longest-running designs on American coinage. The heraldic eagle was first struck on American coins in 1794 as created by Robert Scot, the first Chief Engraver of the United States Mint. This image was modernized for the Silver Eagle release by John Mercanti, who would go on to serve as Chief Engraver of the United States Mint from 2006 to 2010.
