With the enrollment sellouts I thought today might be a fiasco. I was in and out quickly with a Congrats set.

Why do some by the congrats ASE in lieu of the proof ASE? Or do you buy both. The proof is $2.00 cheaper.

I bought 3 Congrats to try my hand at flipping since they were selling at about double issue price. Also bought three regular ASE's, will pick the best one to keep in collection and sell the rest.

Reno32, the 30K limit is cause the mint said so. I assume they try to produce only what will sell. Lately they seem to come up short.

I had to open my Proof Set to remove an actual nose hair off of the $1 coin, eww. The other plastic slab came pre-scratched, so I opened it too, to flip the coins around to the better side. (My proof set last year came without the Tuskegee quarter, so I suppose this is an improvement.)

Corbe, are you in somebody's naughty list?

Just in case I'm missing something.....Is there any benefit to the congratulations set if you collect ASEs (besides if you may be buying it as a gift and want to present it in the folder that says "congratulations")? I know 1 year the ASE was SF minted but I don't see the benefit of getting it if you already have a subscription for the ASE program. Reno- That's just how many folders they printed saying "congratulations".
