After struggling to gain traction for years, the 1998 Silver American Eagle coin from the United States Mint began to show signs of life among both investors and collectors. For one of the first times in the 1990s, both the bullion and proof coins posted gains in production in 1998. Much of this was due to the oncoming Y2K crisis and the uncertainty surrounding its impact. The 1998-P Proof Silver American Eagle coin is now available on Silver.com.

Coin Highlights:

  • There are 1,482 coins in this condition and certification level!
  • Thirteenth annual release of the Proof Silver American Eagle coin!
  • Ships in a plastic slab to protect the coin’s condition.
  • Consists of one troy ounce of .999 fine silver.
  • Face value of $1 (USD) is fully backed by the US government.
  • Earned a grade of PF70 from the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation.
  • Available with a UCAM finish.
  • Features the “P” mint mark of the Philadelphia Mint.
  • Walking Liberty graces the obverse.
  • Heraldic eagle of the US on the reverse.

For the second consecutive year, the Silver American Eagle showed signs of growth in the overall mintage. In fact, both the proof and bullion versions of the coin experienced jumps in mintage of the coins for 1998. The bullion coin jumped modestly from 4.295 million to 4.847 million.

The 1998-P Proof Silver American Eagle coin jumped from 435,000 coins to 450,000 coins in 1998. The United States Mint lowered the maximum mintage level for the Proof Silver American Eagle in 1998 to 450,000, from a higher level of 500,000 in previous years, making 1998 just the second year since 1990 that the US Mint saw a sellout of the maximum mintage.

Just as significant for the Silver American Eagle proof in 1998 was the increase in the premium price charged by the US Mint. For the first time since 1986, when the coins were introduced, the US Mint increased the premium from $23 to $24.00 for original purchases.

On the reverse of these silver coins you’ll find John Mercanti’s modern version of the US heraldic eagle. The obverse features the Walking Liberty design from Adolph A. Weinman, which was originally created in 1916.

Each coin in this product listing is available from Silver.com with a PF70 grade. NGC stipulations require these coins exhibit full, original mint luster and no detracting flaws in order to earn this grade.

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.
