The 1996 date mark for the American Silver Eagle is one that will be remembered for a long time. This year’s silver for sale set the lowest mintage figure in the series and was more than 600,000 lower than the next closest mintage. Now, 1996 1 oz American Silver Eagle Coins are available to you for purchase online from JM Bullion in near-perfect condition.
Coin Highlights:
The seven-year period that ran from 1992 to 1998 saw American Silver Eagle coin figures drop to the lowest collective levels the program has ever seen. The 1996 Silver Eagles had a total mintage of 3,603,386 coins. That is the lowest mintage by more than 600,000 coins when compared with the next two lowest figures. The 1994 and 1997 coins had mintage figures around 4.2 million.
During the mid-1990s, the price of silver per ounce held a steady average. 1994 saw a big jump in the average price for silver and it largely remained at that level through 1996. The average price of silver per ounce in 1996 was $5.20, the same average as the year before. The range of silver pricing throughout the year went from a low of $4.71 to $5.82 per ounce.
On the obverse side of 1996 1 oz American Silver Eagle coins are the image of Walking Liberty. This design was created in 1916 by Adolph A. Weinman and featured on the half-dollar coin from 1916 to 1947. The image depicts Liberty walking toward the sun on the horizon wearing the American flag over her shoulders. Her left-hand holds the oak and laurel branches signifying America’s civic and military successes.
The reverse face of 1996 American Silver Eagles features the heraldic eagle of the United States. This design puts the American bald eagle behind the US national shield with arrows in one talon and an olive branch in the other. Above its head, a triangular cluster of 13 stars represents the original colonies.
All 1996 1 oz American Silver Eagle Coins are available here in Mint State 69 condition. These coins have full, original mint luster and no more than two minor detracting flaws. Those flaws are limited to minuscule contact marks or hairlines.
