The Mintage History
The 2001 American Silver Eagle coins hold historical significance beyond commemorating the 15th anniversary. Originally, both bullion and proof coins were struck in San Francisco. From 1993 to 2000, proof coin production shifted to Philadelphia, and bullion coins moved to Philadelphia from 1999 to 2000. In 2001, the West Point Mint struck both bullion and proof coins, a tradition continuing at the New York facility today.
In 2001, bullion production slightly decreased from 9.239 million in 2000 to 9.001 million. However, the proof American Silver Eagle coin saw a significant increase from 600,743 coins in 2000 to 746,398 coins in 2001. This nearly reached the declared maximum mintage of 750,000 set by the United States Mint. The 2001 coins encapsulate a pivotal chapter in the series' minting history.
