The 2002 American Silver Eagle BU is a timeless bullion coin that embodies the strength and stability of U.S. coinage. Minted in .999 fine silver by the United States Mint, this issue continues the legacy of the world's most recognizable silver bullion coin series.
Historical Insight:
The 2002 Silver Eagle was released at a time when silver prices remained relatively low, making it an accessible option for investors and collectors alike. As the economy began to recover from the early 2000s recession, demand for tangible assets like silver quietly grew.
