2014 Silver Proof Set Lead Sales, Arches Bullion Coins Rise

Two numismatic silver coin products nearly tied in the weekly United States Mint sales stats report, and the new bullion five ounce 2014 Arches silver coins kept climbing after their debut on Monday.

Collectors have been focused on ordering the 2014 Silver Proof Set, which has been on the market now for approximately six weeks, and the 2014-W Proof Silver Eagle that launched in January. The Silver Proof Set with its seven 90% silver coins pulled out to lead sales at 7,743 while the Proof Silver Eagle followed closely with a gain of 7,573. Across all U.S. Mint products, not just those composes from silver, the 2014 Silver Proof Set and 2014-W Proof Silver Eagle ranked second and third in highest weekly sales (the Mint’s clad 2014 Proof Set led with a gain of 13,233 to 262,142).

As reported a few days ago, Arches National Park Silver Bullion Coins for investors launched at the beginning of the week and started with first-day sales of 5,500. Since then, another 8,000 were picked up by the Mint’s network of authorized purchasers, taking the new total up to 13,500.

In the table below are the latest sales stats for collector silver coins and related products from the US Mint. Sunday, June 8, is the as of date.
