Nice photos.  I might have to find some time to take some photos (and maybe a group photo) of the sets I have. |

Ah, the 25th Anniversary Set. The granddaddy of the ASE sets and the one that broke the US Mint web site. I love it! Thanks for posting, DNA. I'm glad that's not the one I was working on posting... will be up shortly. |

A lot of times I use the pictures I post, when I am at the LCS ... to show customers what is out there. Glad some of the ASE sets are getting posted .. I have tried twice to take pictures of mine .. not happy with the pics I am getting so far |

Behold the 2006 American Eagle 20th Anniversary Silver Coin Set in all its glory! (Or as much glory as I could muster with my iPhone camera and poor lighting.) Product code A10. It originally sold for $100 and now goes for around $300 on ebay ungraded ( Red Book states $450). It had a limit of 250,000 and contains 3 American Silver Eagles: - 2006 W Burnished Uncirculated - 2006 W Proof - 2006 P Reverse Proof (first RP ASE ever issued by the US Mint) The reverse proof coin is definitely the draw to the set with a mintage of 250k (making it semi-key), although the burnished uncriculated is also the first of its kind. The RP is only one of 4 to date produced by the US Mint and they've all been available only as part of a set, making them very sought-after. The other two coins were available in other formats so their mintage numbers are significantly higher. Overall a very nice set with 2 newly-introduced ASE varieties and one semi-key for the set. On to the pics! The set, fully assembled with dust cover:  The dust cover removed, above the box:  The box lid removed (top), revealing the coin box:  The box opened, showing the 3 coins, COA, and my curious dog who wanted to be in on the action (no, his nose did not touch the capsules)  Same shot, sans the dog:  |

Nice 20th CelticKnot ... I may have to do a group pic of mine ...
I remember buying this set the day it came out. I went all over the
neighborhood telling friends about it .. ended up ordering sets for
four people. Made some people happy .. turning $100 into $300 to $500

This next group of coins, someone here on CCF bought to my attention a few weeks ago. I had remembered seeing them, ever bought some. But I broke them open and put the coins in my quarter tube box. Now I am trying to put a set together, have 25 different states now. State Quarters First day covers.  I think they were issued in shrink wrap (some I have that way)   I find interesting, they have the first day of mintage, first day of issue and postmark for that first day issue.  Mint products should have the mint logo  |
