Just a quick update concerning Silver Eagles inventory. We will receive our final shipment of Silver Eagles for 2013 on Friday, December 6th. There will be 30,000 coins in the shipment. Once these coins are sold, we will be completely out of stock on Silver Eagles until the new 2014 coins release on January 14th, 2014.

GoldStar Trust Company, a leading IRA custodian, and DDSC (Delaware Depository) are the two latest institutions to add the .9999 fine Texas Silver Round to the their respective catalogs of approved silver. By definition, the Texas Silver Round qualifies as an IRA-eligible product because it meets the fineness requirements of the US government and is minted at an ISO-9001 facility. However, every institution has the right to accept or reject IRA-eligible products.

The holidays are here again, and we want to communicate a few important scheduling details, including our shipping policies throughout the holidays. During long holiday breaks, such as Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's, we "hold" packages from shipping on certain days for security reasons. Packages lingering in sort facilities around the holidays pose higher security risks. We believe this grace period is in the customer's best interest, and could potentially impact our internal 3-day shipping window slightly:

In an effort to build up inventories for the inevitable silver eagle demand in January, the US Mint will cease production of the 2013 coins on December 9th to begin minting the 2014-dated coins. Annually, the US Mint sells more coins in January than any other month of the year, as collectors, dealers, and enthusiasts scramble for First Strike and Early Release coins. Additionally, with consistent demand in the certified coin (graded) market, a large percentage of these coins will make there way to grading companies PCGS and NGC.
