As reported earlier, an impressive 2,958,000 of the bullion 2015 Silver Eagles were ordered by U.S. Mint authorized purchasers (APs) on Monday, the first day of availability. By Wednesday, another 743,500 were picked up, moving January’s total up to 3,701,500 — the most for a month since October.

As for the collector’s strike, in proof quality, something strange happened. Sales of the older 2014-dated issue outpaced the number of 2015 coins sold by 3,404 to 1,973.

In the table below are the latest sales stats for collector coins and related silver products from the US Mint. Sunday, January 11, is the as of date.
