The recently issued 5-ounce silver Uncirculated and bullion coins by the U.S. Mint are to be sold only to authorised purchasers (APs), who sell them to the public. But The Fort Moultrie issue, whose images were released, will be available for sale directly from the mint on 8th December 2016.

The 5-ounce Uncirculated coin struck in 99.9% fine silver at the Philadelphia Mint is the fifth release in the America the Beautiful program this year. Each coin is 0.165 inches thick and has a smooth edge with the inscription .999 FINE SILVER 5.0 OUNCE.

Pricing will depend on the bullion price of silver at the time of release. Other such 5-ounce coins in the program are currently priced at $149.95.
