Kennedy and Everglades Silver Coins on Sales Charts

Two of the biggest movers and shakers in the latest United States Mint sales stats included the newly released 50th Anniversary Kennedy Half-Dollar Silver Coin Collection, on the collector side, and the 2014 Everglades 5 Ounce Silver Bullion Coin, on the investor side.

Consumers went on a buying frenzy — although maybe not as furious as some expected, gobbling up 39,477 more of the 50th Anniversary Kennedy Half-Dollar Silver Coin Collection after 85,670 sets were picked up on the first day of availability. Sales as of Sunday, November 2, hit 125,147. The pre-established product limit is 300,000.

But collectors didn’t stop there. The second biggest seller of the week was the 2014 Silver Proof Set, up 10,330 in this round compared to 5,119 previously, so its total moved up to 329,695.

Next in units sold was the super popular 2014-W Proof Silver Eagle. It passed another major sales achievement when buyers whipped out their credit cards for 6,345 of the Silver Eagle coins. In doing so, its total sales shot passed 700,000 marker and landed at 701,163.

Over on the bullion side, the 2014 Everglades 5 Ounce Silver Bullion Coin debuted on Monday, and U.S. Mint Authorized Purchasers responded immediately by ordering 22,000 of them. The Everglades strike is the last one of five for this year in the America the Beautiful Silver Bullion Coin Program. Its inaugural sales beat all four prior 5 ounce strikes in the series. The collectible five ounce Everglades silver coin went on sale today. We’ll talk about that in an upcoming article.

In the table below are the latest sales stats for collector coins and related silver products from the US Mint. Sunday, November 2, is the as of date.
