Has there been an official statement or press release from the mint on the final numbers for this set? Where are people seeing this information?

Quote: NGC graded almost twice as many 2012 reverse proofs PF70 as 2006 (so far). So I think that 2006 will still be more valuable The 2006 RP can still be sent in for 20th Annie label grading as it was unique to the set. TPG numbers on this can be very fluid...it's not the slab that is of low mintage since that can be changed at any time ...it's the coin

I would have to believe that the prices for this new set in the secondary market will jump a little after this news. We shall see. This news does make my PCGS 70 set more attractive. My other two (non slabbed) sets are pretty too...don't want to leave any of them out of this conversation :)

Quote: The 2006 RP can still be sent in for 20th Annie label grading as it was unique to the set. Yes, and if you pay attention to population numbers, you'll see that a few are still trickling in to TPGs. Yet the percentage getting 70 grade remains mostly constant. NGC has already graded over 50K of them. PCGS got another 15K. That's roughly 25% of the total mintage. I really doubt that there'll be a flood of 2006 RP coins getting graded in the future. I expect that the 2006 RP ASE graded 70 to remain the most valuable of the 3. Keep in mind that just as additional 2006 coins can be sent in for grading, so too can 2011 and 2012.

You may be correct but right now the '06 and '11 are both selling for around $400 (NGC) with the ER '11 getting a bump to $460-550
The '12's are very cheap by comparison

This was taken from the Mint Coin News, It will be interesting to see if the updated final sales figure contributes to a bump up in secondary market prices. The new numbers now make the 2012-S Reverse Proof Silver Eagle the fourth lowest mintage issue of the series (excluding varieties). The lowest mintage is still held by the 1995-W Proof at 30,125, followed by the 2011-S Uncirculated and 2011-P Reverse Proof issues from the 25th Anniversary Set at 100,000 each. Previously, the fourth lowest mintage was held by the 2006-P Reverse Proof coin from the 20th Anniversary Set at 248,875. This issue now moves into fifth place. In My Opinion, I wonder what happened to the 2008 Reverse of 2007, I thought that variety was just above the 95-w proof, Mintage wise..!!!!

I agree that the graded 70 06 will still be worth more since that coins population is lower but we could see a rise in the 12 over time. The mintage numbers SHOULD affect the sets more than the graded, but at the since time the 06 was still the first one which gives it a bump on its own. I think this set will be held back some by the fact the reason for it wasnt as good as say a 25th set or 20th set and the coin and currency waters it down some which the 06 set didnt face.

It's as if the Mint can't just make a set with coins unique only to it.
The 2006 set had 1 of 3 coins unique The 2011 set had 2 0f 5 coins unique ..and the 2012 set was close but the S was, again, also available outside the set
Is is so hard just to make a unique set and keep it special?

If the mint starts to sell logical ASE sets, as in all the coins being unique, I'm going have to stop collecting because something must be wrong in the mint universe....LOL
