Hi Guys,

I ran into this ANACS graded Silver Eagle and I was wondering if anyone has information as to what it might be and why they are listing these as "Silver Eagle is certified authentic as 2021 coin struck in 2020"? Is there something I'm missing?

    need more info.

    link? picture?

    I can say that 2021 coins can be minted in 2020 in preparation for their release in 2021. also, 2021 coins can be minted in 2021 and held, then released in 2022.

    The Mint always strikes coins of the new year late in the previous year so as to have them ready to deliver to authorized dealers ASAP after New Years. Does not mean anything significant.

    NGC is doing that as well. If the production date on the Green Monster Box was before January 1 of the date on the coin they note on the Label the year it was struck.

    Marketing ploy. Ignore.

    I drink three beers a day to prevent labelitis.

    Governments can print currency. Only the people can print faith in it — and they’re running low on ink.

    @20GoldSaint.... Welcome aboard... You have your answer above, and some collectors like the idea of the stipulation being documented, though it is really meaningless and will command no premium among most collectors. More of a TV hucksters ploy..... Cheers, RickO

    Not sure what the OP saw, but here is what I found.

    The "struck in 2020" marketing starts at the 2:00 mark.
