I would think that sales would slow down with silver prices continuing to drop.....below $15 per ounce now. It would be nice if the mint would adjust pricing like they do when all other metals go up/down (gold/platinum/palladium). Not sure why they don't do the same for silver.

Anyone who bought a $50 proof silver eagle because it had $15 in silver in it should not be allowed to handle the house finances.
It’s just my Dog, (Izzy), Cat (Kitty) and I. :'(
Who will pay the bills? I spend more on them weekly than I do for myself. I have a problem not Being Able to STIP Buying. I need help.
Congratulations unavailable and put these out with no limits at all. FDI will go for sure but with not limits? I am thinking about writing an open letter to the Mint.
My comment was more directed at a collector waiting a week or two to purchase the gold eagles and spouse coins and saving substantial money due to ebs and flows of metal prices for those that still wanted the coin in the past (and not trying to accumulate gold as it is much cheaper to buy bars/bullions, etc.). If we applied the same mark-up on the gold proof eagles that they apply to these silver eagles, the collector gold eagles would be around $3,400 each from the mint. I don't know what it costs the mint to make/package these silver eagle proofs, but a coin in the $32-$35 price range is where they should be, if not lower. You can buy several prior date silver eagles on Ebay for under $40 that now have a known final mintage.
Actually US eagle silver bullion demand is picking up due to low prices.
