1997 American Silver Eagle
The 1997 Silver Eagle has the third lowest bullion coin mintage for the series, however it only carries a slight premium. In total, the US Mint produced 4,295,004 of the silver bullion coins, representing a higher total than only 1994 and 1996.
The 1997 Proof Silver Eagle (Buy on eBay) has the third lowest mintage for a regular proof issue of the series and accordingly carries a premium compared to more common dates. The coins were produced for collectors with a maximum authorized mintage of 500,000 coins and priced at $23.00 each.
This year, the US Mint also offered the Impressions of Liberty Set (Buy on eBay), which contained one ounce proof Gold, Silver, and Platinum Eagles. The three coin set was released to coincide with the launch of the new American Platinum Eagle. The product was limited to 5,000 sets priced at $1,499.00 and achieved a full sell out.
For certified coin collectors, the proof coin can be encountered in perfect grades from PCGS and NGC with more frequency. The bullion version can be located in NGC MS 70, but PCGS MS70 is scarce.
The average price of silver during 1997 was $4.91 per ounce. During the year silver remained within a relatively narrow range before breaking above $6.00 per ounce in December.

Shipping and Returns
Shipping and Delivery
We pride ourselves on prompt delivery. If a coin is purchased on the website or over the phone and PayPal is the payment method, we will make every effort to send it the following day. Exceptions to this will be when we are at a show, in which case the coin(s) will ship when we return to the office. If check or money order is the payment method, we will deposit the check/money order and ship once payment has cleared.
All of our shipments are USPS Priority mail or FedEx (depending on value). Signature confirmation is required for packages valued at $250 or above. We believe this is the best way to protect all parties from lost or stolen packages. Of course all packages are insured for the full purchase price. Tracking information will also be provided.
Returns
All coins we sell come with a no questions asked 30 day return privilege. We simply ask you let us know if a coin is being returned before the thirty days have expired. The last thing we want is someone to be unhappy with a coin purchase and will gladly issue a prompt refund once the coin is returned in its original holder and condition.
