Get Them Before They Are Gone! Best 2016 coins STILL available...

Posted by Toby Adkins, Numismatic Scholar for International Currency on Dec 27th 2016

As 2016 comes to a close, we can look back at a great year for coin collectors.  There were some great offerings on coins across the globe and many of them are already very hard to find.  That being said, there are still a handful of 2016 coins that can STILL be had at some great prices.  This is not a list of the best of the best but it is a list of some of the best coins you can still find before the year is over... so stop reading this intro and scroll down before they too are gone!

2016 Superman Silver Coin


Crossover coins are coins that are collected by different groups for different reasons and this one certainly fits the bill. The Superman silvers have been pulled in two camps between coin collectors and of course those die hard Superman fans! With a mintage of just one million coins they are far more rare than your typical silver dollars. Minted by the Royal Canadian Mint these coins were an instant hit in the States. They are also struck in .9999 pure silver making them one of the purest silver coins in the world. While they are still available, don't let this one "fly" away. (Yes, I realize that was horrible but I still had to do it!)

2016 Proof and Uncirculated Silver Eagles

2016 Proof and Uncirculated Silver Eagles

This year marks the 30th Anniversary of the popular American Silver Eagles. For the first time ever, the Mint produced the Silver Eagles with edge lettering instead of a reeded edge. Incused into the edge are the words 30TH ANNIVERSARY. These are still currently available, directly from the Mint, in the original packaging. Anniversary dates have always been extremely popular with collectors and this year is no exception.

Ronald Reagan Coin and Currency Set

Ronald Reagan Coin and Currency Set

Ronald Reagan was a beloved President by many and played a huge role in several popular coins still collected today. With 2016 being such a contested election year and a product limit of just 150,000 pieces, I am shocked to see any of these sets still available. The set consists of a reverse proof Presidential dollar coin, the 30th Anniversary proof Silver Dollar, and a Ronald and Nancy Reagan bronze medal. Not only is it handsomely packaged but contains a Presidential portrait produced by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. They are currently still available for direct purchase from the Mint for $68.95.

Mercury Dime, Standing Liberty Quarter, and Walking Liberty Half Dollar Centennial Gold Coins

Mercury Dime, Standing Liberty Quarter, and Walking Liberty Half Dollar Centennial Gold Coins

For the sake of space, we will group these beautiful coins together. The coins were released separately over the last 8 months with equal amounts of praise and grumbling! Many collectors feel the Mint really botched how each coin was released but the result was still beautiful coins. The coins represent the new designs that originally came out 100 hundred years ago back in 1916 during our "coin renaissance". Struck in pure .9999 24kt gold they are stunning! Availability has been up and down on some of the pieces but they are not hard to find. We currently have them in inventory so we can help if you are looking for these.

Thank you!
