Flawless 1995-W Bullion Set Featured in our January 2021 Collector’s Choice Online Auction

The U.S. Mint’s recent release of coins commemorating the 75th
anniversary of the end of World War II has created renewed excitement for gold
and silver American Eagles, a series first introduced in 1986. While many
noteworthy American Eagles have been released over the past 35 years, perhaps
the most famous was the 1995-W Proof set celebrating the 10th anniversary
of the series. This five-piece set included examples of the 1oz silver eagle,
as well as 1/10, 1/4, ½ and 1oz gold eagles.

Surprisingly, it is the silver eagle that is the key issue
from this set, with a record price of $86,655 achieved by a high-grade example
in a 2013 auction. The silver eagle has a minuscule mintage of only 30,125
coins and it was only available as part of the five-piece sets. It was also the
very first silver eagle to feature the W mintmark of the West Point Mint, a
feature that would eventually accompany the majority of Proof silver eagles
from 2001 to the present day.   

We are thrilled to include an exceptional 1995-W American
Eagle set in lot
92460
of our January 2021 Collectors Choice Online Auction. Each coin in
this five-piece set remains virtually perfect and has been certified Proof-70
Ultra Cameo by NGC. Our January Collectors Choice Online Auction is now
available for viewing and bidding at www.StacksBowers.com,
and it will open for live bidding on Wednesday, January 6 at 11:00 AM PST. If
you would like to consign to a future Collectors Choice Online event or have
