Congratulations Set Includes 2020-W Proof American Silver Eagle - CoinNews.net

The latest gift product from the United States Mint, the 2020 Congratulations Set, goes on sale today at noon EST. It includes the same 2020-W Proof American Silver Eagle that launches by itself, also at noon, albeit at a different price point and in different packaging.

The set is designed with gift-giving in mind for events such as weddings, anniversaries, retirements, graduations, etc. Its packaging is themed for special occasions with areas for a personalized message, the coin and its specifications, and a U.S. Mint Certificate of Authenticity.

Issued annually since introduced in 2013, the set’s popularity has varied with thousands sold each year. It has sister products as well, like the recently released 2020 Newborn and Birthday Sets.

For those interested in just the 2020-W Proof Silver Eagle, it will be $64.50, one dollar less than the set. The stand-alone Silver Eagle ships in a blue velvet, satin-lined presentation case.

American Silver Eagles bear the same imagery, including an obverse (heads side) image of Walking Liberty as designed by Adolph A. Weinman. Inscriptions read  LIBERTY, IN GOD WE TRUST and the year of minting.
