Debra .... Yours is one of the nicest set of ASE's I have seen. I was really suprised to see the 1996 W ...  And they look very nice in the Caps album |

Great looking set. I've been slowly adding to my CAPS album, and your fully (almost anyway) populated album is quite a sight. Congrats!

A very nice set. I am tempted in getting the first album but would be hesitant to get the second as it is missing the s mint coin for this year and whatever surprises are to come in the future. Still short three for a full set myself.

@muddler...once you buy the pages, they will send you free updates. I just thought I'd wait to order a new page until I see if the Mint continued the S mints in future years. Proof coins are tough to photograph. The set does look nicer in person but it's the best I could do with my IPad and zero photography skills. @CelticKnot...nudge, nudge, nudge  @commens I don't know what it is but if I start a set of something I HAVE to finish it....eventually. @mr1030 Thanks. I wouldn't mind cracking the 2007 reverse of 08 but cracking the 1995-W is never going to happen. So those two holes are going to remain open. I thought  about going to Wal-mart and getting 2 of their smiley face stickers they hand out to kids and putting them in air tites to place in the empty holes. @GR58 In my Elvis voice...Thank you, Thank you very much @crazyglue  Thanks again for all the nice words!! |

Debrajc, you are doing a fine job as an unofficial ambassador for the CAPS albums.  |

Beautiful Set! I like how the CAPS album has what the coin is on the reverse. Dansco doesn't have that.

Excellent set! I'm very happy for you. Quote:
Now, technically I could add one more coin. The 2008 reverse of 07 is available in both the bullion and the Burnished coin. So if I ever pick up the burnished issue I will add a new picture. But for now I'm "finished". Debrajc, the coin you have is the burnished issue as it has the W mint mark. Where is there information that a bullion version of this coin exists? I have only ever seen the burnished version. Silvereagleguide.com states "The variety occurs on the 2008-W Uncirculated Silver Eagle. This is the collectible uncirculated or "burnished" version of the coin that the US Mint sold directly to collectors." Unless someone shows evidence to the contrary, I say that you're done. |

A one-year necro-bump here but I thought it fitting now that there has been another S-proof released.
Debrajc, what are you going to do about the S-proofs now that they appear to be an annual offering? I imagine CAPS will release an updated page if they haven't already. Can't tell from their web site.

A worthy bump for a good question.  |
