The article states that the U.S. Mint did not mint all American Silver Eagle Bullion Coins at West Point, New York, Mint, as previously believed.
Released on March 31st, the article is titled: 'Millions of silver Eagle struck outside Westpoint."
The article is about how Coin World got the U.S. Mint to release where and how many American Silver Eagle Bullion Coins were minted in 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017.
I cross-referenced the totals of the released U.S. Treasury numbers in the Coin World article and the U.S. Mint's official numbers and quickly realized the numbers for 2014 were not adding up.
The U.S. Mint's mintage figures show 13,531,000 more American Silver Eagle bullion coins than the U.S. Treasury's released mintage figures.
