Title:
American Eagle 2020-S 1oz Silver Proof
Description:
For the 2020 S-mint American Silver Eagle, there were two distinct issues struck at the San Francisco Mint with different mintages:
Proof Silver Eagle (2020-S): The U.S. Mint initially announced a mintage of 200,000 for the individually sold coin, but later revised the total mintage figure to 266,537 to account for bulk packs and coins included in the 2020 Limited Edition Silver Proof Set. This coin features the ”S” mint mark on the reverse.
Emergency Issue Bullion Silver Eagle (2020-(S)): In response to production shutdowns at the West Point Mint due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the San Francisco Mint struck 1,000,000 bullion Silver Eagles. These coins do not carry a mint mark, and their San Francisco origin is verified through special labels from grading services.
