The 1991 release of Silver American Eagle coins was one of contrasting fortunes between the bullion and proof versions of the coin. While one was on the rise, hitting a mark that wouldn’t be seen again for eight years, the other was sinking in popularity. Right now, the 1991-S Proof Silver American Eagle coin is available for purchase in perfect condition from Silver.com.

Coin Highlights:

  • Sixth release of the Silver American Eagle proof coin!
  • Arrives in a protective plastic slab.
  • Consists of one troy ounce of .999 fine silver.
  • Bears a face value of $1 (USD) backed by the federal government.
  • Issued a grade of PF70 by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation.
  • Features an Ultra-cameo finish.
  • “S” mint mark of the San Francisco Mint.
  • Adolph A. Weinman’s Walking Liberty on the obverse.
  • John Mercanti’s heraldic eagle on the reverse.

Silver American Eagle sales in 1991 surged to a new high for the third-consecutive year for the bullion version of the coin. After dropping from 11.4 million to 5.0 million in 1988, the coin had steadily grown to reach 7.19 million in 1991.

On the other hand, the 1991 Proof Silver American Eagle ushered in an era of declining mintage for the collector’s version. After two years of growth, the Proof Silver American Eagle dropped more than 180,000 in number from 695,000 in 1990 to 511,925 in 1991. This was just the beginning though as the Proof Silver American Eagle shed mintage numbers for the next three years, eventually bottoming out at an all-time low in 1994.

The drop in popularity of and demand for the Proof Silver American Eagle was the result of spot value of silver holding at lower levels, driving more investors to the bullion version of the coin instead. The average price of silver throughout 1991 was $4.05, with a low point of $3.61 per ounce.

All 1991-S Proof Silver American Eagle coins available here on Silver.com have PF70 grades from the NGC. Each coin exhibits full, original luster from the mint and lacks any detracting flaws on its surfaces.

UCAM, or ultra-cameo, is a term that defines proof coins with an exceptional finish. The design set of each of these coins has a strong, frosted matte finish. The background field contrasts that with a deeply-mirrored, clear finish.

Is my information secure?

We take data security very seriously. When you place an order with silver.com, your information is transmitted with the utmost SSL (secure socket layers) 256-bit protection. We also never have access to your credit/debit card details, as they are securely communicated directly to the payment processor (Authorize.net) and never retained by Silver.com. For this reason, we also don't process credit/debit card orders over the phone, as it is the least secure way to process those transactions.

In addition, all VISA and MasterCard orders undergo an additional step of user authentication - the respective Verified by VISA or MasterCard SecureCode programs. Upon completing checkout with a VISA or MasterCard credit/debit card, you may be promoted for additional details to confirm your identity and protect our customers against credit card fraud.

Finally, the data we do retain in our system, including but not limited to name, address, phone number, and order history, is never shared with or sold to any unrelated third-parties. Please review our Privacy Policy for full details on our data security measures.

Please note, the Silver.com website accepts orders 24/7/365, so you can always lock in live product prices and make purchases outside of business hours.

Do you charge sales tax?

We are required to collect sales tax in certain states. You can review your states sales tax policy here: https://www.silver.com/taxes. You should always consult with a tax adviser for specific advice in your area.

Where does your spot price come from?

We use a live, up-to-the-second spot price feed supplied by Xignite.com, a worldwide leader in the data supply market.

Are your products actually in stock?

Yes. We are one of the few bullion dealers in the industry who only deems products "in stock" when we have them on-hand and ready to ship immediately. In the instance of a presale item, we denote that the product is on presale and the estimated shipping date. While we make the best efforts to hit presale dates, the dates are only estimates, given we cannot control mint production issues and/or carrier dealyes.

Why are multiple prices listed?

We offer a 4% discount to "cash" paying customers - with paper check, bank wire, and bitcoin payments being defined as cash. On many products, we are also able to offer volume discounts to customers purchasing large quantities of the same item. All volume pricing is laid out in the chart on the product's description page, as well as in the cart.

When do I lock in my price?

All prices are locked in at the time of purchase. Credit/debit card, PayPal, BitCoin, Ethereum, and Ripple orders are paid at the time of checkout, while paper check and bank wire orders require a credit/debit card on file to lock in your pricing while we await your payment. Please note, paper check and bank wire orders will NOT result in a charge to your card - we simple maintain the card on file while we await full payment by your selected payment method.

Do you ship internationally?

We currently only ship to addresses in the United States, including APOs.
