Modern US Silver Coins: Modern US silver coins show current Mint artistry at its best. All coins produced for collectors are in the gem or better category. Bullion coins, which are one of the products of the contemporary Mint, come in a few choices. Some modern US silver coins come in regular issue pieces, burnished uncirculated and proof finishes. Modern US Silver coins with proof finishes show high cameo contrast with dark mirrors and white frosted devices. In 2006, the Mint made an innovation with modern US silver coins by striking a reverse proof coin. The devices were mirrored and the fields were frosted. Other modern US silver coins include pieces such as the George T. Morgan $100 Union, which was actually a design found in one of Morgan’s sketch books and struck by the New York Mint, a private firm. Of course, there are commemorative coins such as the Thomas Jefferson 250th Anniversary Silver Dollar. Most modern US silver coins do not have a significant numismatic premium; however, there are exceptions. The 1995-W American silver eagle is such as coin. Only 30,125 proof coins were issued with the W mintmark for that year making it an immediate rarity.
