Quote: The second is that they were examined by a 3rd party grading service and put back in the OGP because they did not make the specified grade. That's the most likely. Most places won't presort massive ASE bulk submissions, they'll just put a minimum grade and have a truck load delivered type thing

Quote: Nine out of ten of the plastic capsule holders inside the boxes were dented Just checked the four I got from Liberty and all dented as well. Never even occurred to me to check underneath the holder although I always just assume if you're buying from anyone else besides the mint they've probably been cherry-picked.

Quote: Two I would have returned if received directly from the mint. One has a spot of crud on it and the other has a tiny milk spot on it Should contact them about returning these. At least an exchange for some that are clean.

As of today, ebay has these for around $40, and a major dealer is selling for $44.99 Do you think these are coins that were sent to TPG and didn't make the grade and put back in the OGP? 200,000 these days does not seem all that low especially when compared to uncirculated 2018 gold double eagle with a mintage of 10,000 or the 2000 bi-metallic unc coin.

30,125 seems like a good quantity to me as well, but the 1995-W Proof ASE has that mintage and sells for around $3,000. It's all about the supply and demand for the series.

A few things: ..you can't compare the mintage of a burnished ASE with a gold, bi-metalic, proof or even bullion product. You have to compare the numbers with other burnished ASE's ..it is not a $3000 coin. It will probably sell at a small premium over others with a higher mintage...until the next year comes in with a lower number  ..I contacted Liberty Coin about the no response for a week and they refunded my cash the same day. Probably the best result

I wasn't making the point that the 17-W burnished is a $3000 coin. I was giving the most extreme example that I could think of to illustrate that you can't just compare mintages (supply) when speculating on potential future value. You must also take the popularity (demand) of the series in to account.
