Silver Eagle Premiums But Are More Bullion Shortages Ahead?"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Silver Eagle premiums have fallen from the highs over the past 4-6 weeks.\u00a0 However, 2020 Silver Eagle premiums from the leading online dealers are still averaging nearly $8 per coin.\u00a0 Thus, precious metals investors are still paying an average 45% premium over spot for the U.S. Mint 2020 Silver Eagles.<\/p>\n<p>When the U.S. Federal and State Governments started shutting down the economy at the end of March, demand for silver bullion products surged to record highs not seen in more than five years.\u00a0 In just a few weeks, most of the online dealers saw their silver bullion inventories vanish.\u00a0 And then, with the shutdown of the U.S. Mint and the Royal Canadian Mint, availability of silver bullion products went from BAD to WORSE.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>It has taken nearly two months for stocks of some silver bullion products to begin growing again, but many silver bullion products are still not available.<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0 If we see another round of shutdowns, due to the &#8220;second-wave&#8221; of the global contagion hitting the United States, this could cause another surge in silver buying.\u00a0 If so, the two months it has taken to build some silver bullion inventories&#8230; could be wiped out again.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>Since I started a spreadsheet on the 2020 Silver Eagle buy prices from the top four online dealers, the average premium from this group has declined from $10.97 per coin on May 19th, to $7.98 per coin today.<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0 That is a $3 decline in the average premium for the 2020 Silver Eagle.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\"

\/><\/p>\n<p>One reader commented after the article showing that only 2.83 ounces of silver were sold per U.S. citizen over this ten-year period.\u00a0 That&#8217;s peanuts.\u00a0 If just 1% of new American investors tried to purchase physical silver bullion, the price would skyrocket as availability would totally dry up.\u00a0 Sure, if the price of silver was much higher, it may motivate sellers to provide more supply, but I wouldn&#8217;t be selling any of my silver just to get more Fiat Federal Reserve Notes.\u00a0 I would only sell silver to buy something or to exchange for gold.\u00a0 Those are the only two reasons.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, it&#8217;s going to be interesting to see what happens to the U.S. economy and financial system over the next 6-12 months.\u00a0 <span
