Silver Eagle Coins Some Useful Info

Article by Lars Jensen

One of the most well-liked silver us coins to gather are silver eagle coins, here’s a bit of their history.

The “Gold Standard” was the basis of economies over the world for many years, meaning that the price of gold set the value of international currency. Afterwards, the “Silver Standard” came to bepreferred by the Europeans as they began to favor silver over gold. Gold and silver were equally used for a time to calculate the worth of currency for different countries.

America also adopted to the dual metal standard, and by 1873 was using the peso or “pieces of eight” (also recognized as Spanish real) to set its silver standard. The gold standard was determined by the gold coin known as the “Eagle” which was in high demand in Europe following the First World War. The American Civil War started the free banking crisis of the late 1800s that ended America’s use for the silver standard.

Old Silver Certificates?

By PaperMoneyMan, on December 24th, 2011%

Question by Ann: Old Silver Certificates?
I recently found eight 1 dollar silver certificates. I was wondering what they might be worth.
Series
1935 D
1957 one starts with a star.
1957 B
1957 A
A 2 dollar bill that is series 1953
Two five dollar bills, series 1953 and 1963
A 10 dollar bill series 1934.
I have no clue if these are worth anything more that face value, but thought it might be worth asking. All bills are worn but still in decent condition.

The Silver Eagle Wealth Protection Plan

The Silver Eagle Wealth Protection Plan

For years, we were impressed upon with the idea that we needed to save and to invest. There was little regard at the time for where and how we were saving or investing, just that we were doing so. Now we have an economic crisis that is unfolding in front of our eyes every day.

I can’t help but wonder if some of the billions of dollars Bernie Madoff “made off” with had been invested in the silver eagle bullion coin instead, would there be less of a reason for investors to be so depressed today? I’m inclined to think so.

silver eagleare guaranteed by the United States Mint to be 1 troy ounce of silver.

STOCK MARKETS: HIGH RISK; SILVER EAGLE COINS: LITTLE TO NO RISK

The stock market has never been a sure thing. Every day billions of dollars are made and lost in the markets and any sort of investment is going to have its own degree of risk involved.

In these frightening economic times, where our 401 k is barely worth half of what . . . → Read More: The Silver Eagle Wealth Protection Plan

Are Silver Certificates worth anything? I have a 1957 A ? ?

By PaperMoneyMan, on September 17th, 2011%

Question by Whoaskedu: Are Silver Certificates worth anything? I have a 1957 A ? ?
A 681
I51054791A (Are the other numbers on it)
I am thinking this is too late in the game it prob needs to be an older one to be worth more than face value.

Best answer:

Answer by zman492The value to a collector depends upon the condition. If the bill shows a lot of circulation it is probably worth less than $ 2.00. Even in the best possible condition the bill would be worth less than $ 20.00.

The fact that it is not too old does not always mean it is less valuable. The big thing limiting the value is the supply. There were a lot of these printed and a lot of people decided to hang on to them, increasing the supply available.

How much is my 1928 5 dollar silver certificate worth?

By PaperMoneyMan, on September 4th, 2011%

Question by TINA: How much is my 1928 5 dollar silver certificate worth?
I also have (3) 1963 5 dollar silver certificates and one of them has a star in front of the serial numbers.

Best answer:

Answer by I. B. ZoxxAccording to the catalog I am using, there were no Series 1928 $ 5 Silver Certificates. There were Series 1928 Federal Reserve Notes (green seals and serial numbers) and United States Notes (red seals and serial numbers), but no Series 1928 Silver Certificates (Blue seals and serial numbers).
Same with Series 1963. You either have Federal Reserve Notes or United States Notes. Let us know which. Also, if there is a letter with the date (for example, Series 1928 B).
