As the late 1990s rolled around, the US economy showed signs of weakness, and the Y2K phenomenon emerged, the demand for silver coins for sale began to rise along with demand for precious metals in general. Along with an increased mintage in 1998, the price of silver rose on average by more than $1. Now, 1998 1 oz Silver American Eagle Coins are available to you online for purchase at Silver.com with a PCGS certification.

Coin Highlights:

  • Coins ship to you inside of PCGS protective plastic slabs!
  • Thirteenth release of Silver American Eagle bullion coins!
  • Availability of certified coins is limited!
  • Consists of One Troy ounce of .999 fine silver.
  • Issued a face value of $1 (USD) by the United States.
  • Bears a Grade of Mint State 69 from the Professional Coin Grading Service.
  • The obverse of the coin features Walking Liberty.
  • The reverse of the coin bears the heraldic eagle of the United States.

Mintage for the 1998 Silver American Eagle coin rose by just over 550,000 coins compared to the year before. The final mintage declared for the year was 4,847,549 coins and it was the highest mintage since 6.7 million coins were issued in 1993. This was, however, the first sign of solid improvement in the series.

In the years to come, Silver Eagle demand would continue to rise as it pushed toward a peak of 10.5 million coins in 2002 before cooling off again for a period of time. As demand for Silver Eagles grew, so too did the price of silver. Although silver finished the year with an average of $5.55 per ounce, it spiked as high as $7.81 per ounce during the year and still marked improvement on prices in 1997.

On the obverse of all Silver American Eagle coins is Adolph A. Weinman’s depiction of Liberty. This design is referred to as Walking Liberty and is believed to be inspired by a French coin design known as “the sower.” This image captures Liberty in left-profile relief as she walks toward the sun on the horizon wearing the American flag over her shoulders.

The reverse side of 1998 1 oz Silver American Eagle Coins includes the heraldic eagle of the United States. This design is a modern version of the historic seal that was created in 1986 by John Mercanti for use on the Silver Eagle coins.

1998 1 oz Silver Eagle coins offered to you here have a PCGS certification. Mint State 69 coins are characterized by the presence of full, original mint luster and a maximum of two minor detracting flaws. Acceptable flaws include only minuscule contact marks and hairlines. The 1998 release of Silver Eagles is memorable because it was the last year the San Francisco Mint handled the coining of Silver Eagles for the US Mint.

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.
