WTC Recovery Silver Eagles are probably in the numbers from 50,000 to 100,000 total Silver Eagles recovered from the vault under the world trade center. The total number is not release yet by PCGS but most people that I have talked to think the numbers is around these figures. Now over 80% of all the coins that came out of the World Trade Center vault was certified by PCGS and Collectors Universe as Gem Uncirculated and not with an MS grading.

So I am going to do this section a little bit different. I am going to update the price of the different dates in the $1 Silver Eagle WTC coins each quarter.
Updated May 2008
Year | Price |
2001 Gem | $102 |
2001 MS69 | $199 |
2000 Gem | $87 |
2000 MS69 | No record |
1999 Gem | No record |
1999 MS69 | No record |
1993 Gem | $104 |
1993 MS69 | $899 |
1991 Gem | $245 |
1991 MS69 | $279 |
1989 Gem | $114 |
1989 MS69 | No record |
1987 MS69 | $419 |
So this is the first update from May 2008 it might give so indication to population of these coins other than what is on other pages on this site. The 1993 MS69 should have a population of 120 coins and the 1987 MS 69 should be around 400 coins.

Historic prices from auctions that has closed with a winner in years past. With data of 118 different WTC auctions from 2003 until 2007 it does look like the coins peaked and has then fallen back since 2007. Great for collectors buying right now.
