Record FUN Coin Show Orlando Attendance Signals Growing U.S. Interest in Physical Silver

1,000's Line Up In Orlando, Florida at FUN Coin Show 2026 While Paper Silver Prices Continue to Fall

While paper silver prices moved lower again this morning, activity on the ground told a very different story. At the Florida United Numismatists (FUN) Coin Show in Orlando, Florida, thousands of attendees lined up before doors opened, creating scenes that long-time participants say they have never witnessed before.

Veteran dealers and collectors—many with decades of experience—repeated a consistent refrain throughout the opening days of the show:

“I’ve never seen anything like this in my 20+ years of attending coin shows.”

The surge in attendance comes at a time when physical silver markets are experiencing structural supply deficits, rising industrial demand, and increasing interest from U.S. retail buyers.

This video explores whether $60 silver is a realistic scenario by looking at market fundamentals, history, and current trends. It also breaks down popular gold and silver myths to separate what’s fact from fiction.

Silver has nearly doubled in 2025, breaking through its 1980 nominal high of $50 and continuing to push higher. But according to SD Bullion market analyst James Anderson, this is just the beginning of a major revaluation.

For the first time in history, the Royal Canadian Mint has struck a 5 oz Silver Maple Leaf bullion coin — and SD Bullion is honored to offer this groundbreaking release exclusively to our customers. After nearly two years of collaboration, design refinement, trial striking, and approvals, the Grand Maple is finally here.

Over the past two weeks, gold and silver markets have seen a dramatic shift in sentiment — from excitement to anxiety. Prices pulled back sharply, headlines turned negative, and many investors began to wonder if the bull run had ended. But according to SD Bullion’s market analyst James Anderson, this reaction is not only premature — it’s classic bull market behavior.

In one of the most dramatic market moves of 2025, gold dropped over $200 and silver tumbled nearly $4 an ounce in just a single trading day. Headlines called it a “historic correction,” and social media lit up with claims of manipulation, panic, and the end of the bullion bull run.
