/EINPresswire.com/ -- OKLAHOMA CITY, OK--(Marketwired - January 17, 2017) - The highly anticipated 2017 Gold American Eagles and Silver American Eagles are now in stock at APMEX. Thanks to a direct relationship with the United States Mint, APMEX is one of the first retailers to receive these new coin releases. To accomplish APMEX's goal of being one of the first retailers to ship 2017 Gold Eagles and Silver Eagles to customers, employees worked overtime hours and even volunteered one Saturday to help prepare and ship all pre-orders.

"Service is a core value at APMEX," APMEX CEO Ken Lewis said. "We serve our customers every day and working on a Saturday to ensure our customers receive their order is just one example. We are excited for the arrival of these new coin releases and are working to ship them to our customers as soon as possible thanks to our direct relationship with the U.S. Mint."

The 2017 Silver American Eagles are available as a 1 oz coin and the 2017 Gold American Eagles are available in 1/10 oz, 1/4 oz, 1/2 oz and 1 oz sizes. American Eagle coins remain the most popular and recognizable bullion coins in the world.

"Our customers continue to have a high interest in these coins year after year and we seek to offer them at reasonable prices, in part due to our direct relationship with the U.S. Mint," Lewis said.

All Gold Eagle and Silver American Eagle coins are backed by the United States government, making them a go-to option for Precious Metals investors. With the 2017 coin releases, demand for the American Eagle coins remains high as they are the top selling coins in the United States.
