Struck by the United States Mint in one troy ounce of .999 fine silver, this coin carries legal tender status with a nominal face value of one dollar. The MS70 designation from the Professional Coin Grading Service certifies that the coin is absolutely perfect under magnification, with no trace of wear, contact marks, or imperfections of any kind.
We carry graded Silver Eagles from the 2016 date for collectors and buyers who prioritize certified perfection alongside the standard specifications that make the American Silver Eagle one of the most widely recognized bullion coins in the world.

The PCGS slab provides an additional layer of authentication and long-term preservation that distinguishes this product from raw bullion.
The American Silver Eagle program was authorized by the Liberty Coin Act of 1985 and entered production the following year in 1986. The United States Mint designed the series to provide a government-backed silver bullion coin for the American market, and it has been produced continuously every year since. Over four decades of consistent production, the Silver Eagle has become the best-selling silver bullion coin in the world by volume.
The 2016 issue holds a particular place in the series because it preceded a major design change. The reverse design remained unchanged from 1986 through 2021, making all coins from this era part of a cohesive and historically significant design run. Collectors who focus on date-specific MS70 examples often view the pre-2021 issues as a distinct chapter within the broader Silver Eagle program.
PCGS, founded in 1986, established the modern framework for third-party coin grading and encapsulation. Their involvement in certifying Silver Eagles helped transform the series from a straightforward bullion product into a recognized segment of the numismatic market where condition and certification carry distinct market significance.
The obverse of the American Silver Eagle features Adolph A. Weinman's Walking Liberty design, originally created for the half dollar series that circulated from 1916 to 1947. The image depicts Liberty striding forward with the American flag draped over her shoulders and her right hand extended toward the rising sun. The design is widely regarded as one of the finest in American numismatic history, and its reproduction on the Silver Eagle carries that legacy forward with modern minting precision.
The reverse was designed by John Mercanti and displays a heraldic eagle with a shield on its chest, holding an olive branch and a bundle of arrows. Thirteen stars representing the original colonies arc above the eagle. The inscriptions include the denomination, weight, purity, and country of origin, reinforcing the coin's official status as a United States Mint product.
In an MS70 example, the surfaces of both sides are absolutely pristine. Every detail of Weinman's Liberty and Mercanti's eagle is fully struck and unmarked, with the full brilliance of the original planchet preserved under the PCGS protective encapsulation. The slab itself is sonically sealed and carries the coin's certification details on the label, including the date, grade, and certification number.
Authentication and grading on this coin are handled by PCGS, one of the two most respected third-party grading services in the numismatic industry. An MS70 grade from PCGS carries significant weight in the collector market because the service applies exacting standards under magnification to assign that designation. The coin is then sealed in a tamper-evident, sonically welded plastic holder that protects the surfaces from post-certification contact.
We are an authorized PCGS dealer, which means the graded coins we carry come with the full confidence of that relationship. The PCGS certification number printed on the holder can be independently verified through the PCGS online registry, allowing any buyer to confirm the coin's grade and authenticity directly with the grading service. No additional testing or verification is required on the buyer's end beyond that lookup.
MS70, or Mint State Perfect, is the top grade on the 70-point Sheldon coin grading scale. A coin graded MS70 by PCGS shows absolutely no post-production imperfections when examined under five times magnification. The strike is full and complete, the luster is uniform, and no contact marks, hairlines, or blemishes are visible anywhere on the coin's surface. Fewer than a small percentage of coins submitted to PCGS achieve this grade, which makes MS70 examples considerably more selective than even MS69-graded pieces.
Each coin is housed in a hard, sonically sealed PCGS slab with a labeled insert identifying the coin's type, date, and grade. Because the coin is already encapsulated, it ships securely in that holder without additional protective packaging needs. This encapsulation also makes the coin easy to handle, display, and store without risk of accidental contact with the coin's surfaces.
The base price of any Silver Eagle is anchored to the current spot price of silver, which fluctuates continuously with global market conditions. On top of the spot price, a premium is applied that reflects the United States Mint's production costs, distribution, and the inherent demand for Silver Eagles as a sovereign bullion product. For the MS70 designation specifically, the premium extends further to account for the selective nature of that grade and the cost of PCGS certification.
Date-specific MS70 coins can carry meaningfully different premiums depending on population reports, which track how many coins of a given issue have received a particular grade. Lower certified populations within a specific date generally support firmer premiums in the secondary market. Our pricing reflects current spot prices in real time, with the MS70 premium structured transparently above that base.
The American Silver Eagle is among the most liquid silver products in any market globally. Its government issuance, standardized specifications, and brand recognition mean that dealers, wholesalers, and private buyers actively maintain interest across all market conditions. The MS70 grade layer adds a numismatic dimension to that liquidity, with a distinct buyer base that specifically seeks certified perfect examples.
We operate a two-way market, meaning customers can sell back Silver Eagle MS70 coins through the same platform where they purchase them. Our buyback pricing is competitive and reflects current market conditions, so there is no need to shop across multiple outlets when it comes time to sell. We recommend reviewing bid pricing before completing any purchase so the full picture of the transaction is clear from the start.
The 2016 date is part of the original design era that preceded the 2021 reverse redesign, giving it a defined place within a closed chapter of the Silver Eagle series. For collectors building date sets of MS70 Silver Eagles, the 2016 issue fills a specific slot that cannot be replicated with a later issue. The combination of the Walking Liberty obverse, the classic Mercanti reverse, and PCGS's MS70 certification makes this coin both a recognizable bullion product and a collector piece with its own distinct market identity.
The PCGS slab eliminates any uncertainty about the coin's condition and eliminates the handling risks associated with raw silver coins. A buyer does not need to assess the coin independently or worry about grade consistency, because that work has already been done by an industry authority and locked in permanently. That certainty has measurable value, both at the point of purchase and when it comes time to resell.
We hold authorized dealer status with PCGS, which means the graded coins we carry are sourced through relationships that reflect the professional standards of the grading service itself. Our A rating with the Better Business Bureau and memberships in the American Numismatic Association and the National Coin and Bullion Association reflect a consistent commitment to professionalism, transparency, and fair dealing that extends across every transaction.
Our pricing is structured to reflect real-time market conditions without layering in unnecessary complexity. We display the bid/ask spread on each product page so buyers can evaluate both sides of the transaction before committing to a purchase. Every product we handle is verified for authenticity before it reaches a customer, and our fulfillment process is designed to protect the integrity of graded coins through every step of packaging and delivery.
Our customer support team is accessible and knowledgeable, and our platform is built around the idea that buyers deserve to make decisions based on accurate information rather than sales pressure. Whether you are purchasing your first graded Silver Eagle or adding to an existing date set, we aim to make the experience straightforward, transparent, and easy to revisit when it is time to sell.
Bullion Standard Pro gives members access to live, executable wholesale bid and ask pricing across the precious metals catalog, including graded Silver Eagles. Rather than relying on indicative or static pricing, Pro members see real-time market prices that reflect current supply and demand at the wholesale level, with no additional dealer markups applied on top. For a product like the 2016 Silver Eagle MS70, where premium levels can shift with population report changes and broader collector demand, having access to live executable pricing provides a more accurate picture of where the market actually stands.
Pro also includes proprietary research tools that allow members to evaluate premium levels, bid/ask spread tightness, and historical pricing patterns across graded and ungraded Silver Eagles. Portfolio holdings are valued using current wholesale bid pricing rather than estimated retail values, giving members a realistic view of liquidation value at any point in time. For buyers who take a longer-term perspective on their graded coin holdings, this level of market transparency is meaningful.
