US Mint Sales: 1776-2026 Silver Eagle Tops 451K, Dollar Set Leads

AI desk brief

U.S. Mint’s 2026-W Proof American Silver Eagle topped 451,757 sales, up 1,473 on the week and now above 90% of its 500,000 mintage cap, while the 2026 American Innovation Dollar Reverse Proof Set added 1,713 to 51,078. The Liberty Bell 1/2-ounce silver medal rose to 2,619, but that is already 593 above its 2,026 mintage limit, implying a likely downward correction in a future Mint report.

The 2026 Semiquincentennial Proof Set was revised lower by 3,968 to 366,826 after a prior week’s larger reduction, though it still sits at 76.4% of its 480,000 limit. Overall sales trends remain supportive for retail silver interest, with the Silver Eagle continuing to dominate weekly gains among numismatic products.
