Gold American Eagle 20th Anniversary Sets Sold Out

I made a mistake, the silver sets are still available, the Gold sets are sold out and I edited the original post to reflect the corections, sorry for the confusion

Thanks for the "heads up" Bryan.I forgot all about it. I ordered 3 sets of the silver but no sure if I was in time or not.

The silver ones are still available, its the Gold version that sold out, and with only 10,000 of the sets available I think the ones that was able to get them will be a very happy camper with the way it turns out through the years, because just being 10,000 reverse proof Gold eagles in 2006 may make this a key coin in the near future

Thanks Bryan. It looks like some people had some deep pockets, weren't they selling at around $2500 each?

This is funny. I just received in the mail (today) their usual order forms with the brochure. I did not even get a chance to order the gold LOL. Only 10,000 of those for $2,610.00. Then you have the 2-coin deal, only 20,000 of those @ $850. Then the silver ones, 250,000 of those @ $100. It is funny they still want you to put an order in, they will hold your cash, or get your money without commitment to ship, while they earn interest on your money, then after ooh lets say 6 months or so, they will say, "opps sorry dude, here is your money back, unfortunately, we sold out', but thanks for sending us your money so we can earn interest on it, while you are paying interest if you used a credit card--Yea right-- I don't think so. If I decided to now mail in an order I be SOL-- Not today--The silver 3 coin set right now looks attractive, since it is the only thing us 'unconnected collectors" can get--

I think they are worth buying, because even though they aren't Gold, they still will have the first year of the Reverse Proof. That being said I have ordered 3 sets of it also to go along with the 3 sets of Gold with the Reverse Proof. The difference with the 2 coin Gold set is that it isn't going to be the Reverse Proof, it is just going to be a regular old Proof. Another little tidbit about the silver set that will make this a pretty nice pickup is,that it has a UNCIRCULATED ASE in it with the WestPoint mint mark, which will be the only way to get one of these (just like it was in 95 when the only way to get the ASE proof was to get it with the gold sets) and with about 6,000 less coins than were minted in 95, so this could be very well the "Key" coin of this series, then you throw the Reverse Proof in there and you have a chance at a great investment. Like I have said before many many times, I am no future teller or chrystal ball reader I am just trying to predict what a market will do from past experiences

That's why I thought the Legacy set would of sold out by now, due to the Benjamin Franklin Commem. I was wrong...like usual.

I may buy one of the silver sets. Even if the gold sets werent sold out they would still be out of my VERY tiny budjet.
