Beginning in 2001, the West Point Mint took over responsibility for the production of a majority of the American Silver Eagle series. To keep up with demand for the ASE during the ongoing pandemic, mintage of 2021 Type 1 American Silver Eagles has been split between the West Point, San Francisco, and Philadelphia Mints. With a production limitation of 495,000 coins, these 2021 (P) Emergency Production ASE's will be one of the lowest mintage issues in the series. These exclusive ASE's do not depict a mintmark on the coin and will be labelled as ''Emergency Production'' by NGC. Only a fraction of the total 2021 (P) mintage will receive this pedigree due to the process required by the grading services. This specific First Release 2021 (P) Type 1 American Silver Eagle was struck at the Philadelphia Mint and has been graded in near-perfect Mint State 69 condition. To add to the rarity of these coins, each one will come with the RCTV exclusive Reagan Pop Art holder that is hand-signed by John Mercanti himself!
