The ten-ounce silver bullion coins are becoming more plentiful. With the proliferation of silver bullion coins from many major mints worldwide. It should be no surprise that large, ten-ounce silver bullion coins are being released. Thus far only a few mints have produced ten-ounce fine silver coins to meet the demands of those wishing to purchase affordable silver.
There is an overhead in designing any coin, but if a smaller coin has been designed the use of the same design can reduce the costs. Also, there is a cost in striking any coin, but striking a ten-ounce coin should be cheaper to produce per ounce than smaller coins.

Currently, the United states Mint produces five 5-oz coins per year, the America the Beautiful quarters. That program will run out next year with six quarters. The total will be 56, one for each state and one for each territory. The other silver bullion coin is the one-ounce American Eagle. There is no indication of a 10-ounce silver bullion coin forthcoming.
blackspanielgallery, Thank you for the practicalities and products. Does it look like the United States might start minting a 10-ounce silver bullion coin in the near future? Is there any indication as to why the United States has not done so thus far? You mention that "striking a ten-ounce coin should be cheaper to produce per ounce than smaller coins." Would the United States prefer to stay away from small-coin and 10-ounce minting?
