After photographing all my Eagles and posting them here, I now realize that I'm missing 3 San Francisco mint ASE's from 2013,14,and 16. Those years come it the Limited edition sets, So I will be buying the sets from 2012 to 2014 (The 2016 set is in the mail. 2017 to 2020 I already have)

Awesome accomplishment! Are you planning on leaving them in OGP or storing/displaying them in some other fashion? I know that you have changed over some of your sets to Dansco Albums. Loved the Kennedy set. I'm thinking you won't do that with these. If you were inclined to display these in an album, maybe the CAPS Album would be an alternative. There is an album for ASE's, AGE's and you have the ability to create a custom album where you could display Silver and Gold Eagles side by side, by year and mint mark, much like you've shown here. It would involve transferring the coins to Air-tites to fit the album as mint issued capsules won't fit the pages. Congrats!

That was going to be my question. how to display them properly, I toyed with the Dansco albums for the ASE but the dates don't go far enough to the present. And I really don't want the bare coins touching the card board of the albums. That custom album you mentioned that takes air-tites sound like a good idea. Is there a brand name I can look into? Changing the coins over to air-tites would not be a problem for me.. I was going to start a poll to see what other folks would do/have done with their ASE/AGE's

@Dearborn, the Airtite-style albums I use for my ASEs are CAPS: https://www.capsalbums.com The albums are #2228 and #2229. The down side to these is that the most recent years aren't updated, but with this system you can print custom pages. Oh, also, the albums are very large. There are one or two threads here in CCF that go into CAPS albums in depth. If I get a moment I'll dig them up and post them but if you search for CAPS you're bound to hit on them. Again, that's a GREAT looking set of coins!

I have toyed with the idea of custom albums for my Washington and Kennedy collections. I am thinking about a Proof Kennedy album 64 to date (with all the special finishes and reverse proofs) and a Washington quarters Silver and Silver Proof Album (no clad). With the ability to customize pages, the options are endless. https://www.capsalbums.com/ is the only place to get the custom labelled pages (it's really just a paper sheet that can be replaced at any time). Valley Coin is a bit cheaper on the stock items. Blank Binders and Slipcases are available too but I'm not sure that the binders can be imprinted like Dansco offers.

Wow, excellent collection of ASEs! Tough decision to either leave them in the holder/slabs or place the coins into an album. Resale value may plummet if you inadvertently damage the coins when removing them from their holders.
