Earlier this month we started tracking the silver to gold sales ratio as measured by the sales of physical gold and silver bullion at the U.S. Mint. We tracked the sales of one ounce American Gold Eagles and one ounce American Silver Eagles. We provided this data from 2008 through September 2013 and compared it to the gold silver ratio that measures how many ounces of silver it takes to purchase one ounce of gold.
