I mentioned the 250th Anniversary USMC commemorative coins in the first paragraph in my first post in this thread. The info I linked ( in my second post ) related to those and I reiterated the links were for the commemorative program, which falls under the same umbrella as the thread topic. . .
It's all good. Some interesting releases on the horizon.

I wonder if they'll do subscriptions for the ASE's?

Just looking at the USMC coins on January 2nd... holiday bills plus $6k for two gold coins, $90-100 each for two silver coins, and what, $35? each for two clad coins.
And you know the 3-coin proof set will not be discounted.

Would be nice if they waited a month or two to release the USMC coins.

Thank you for the update. I really like the USMC dollar and half dollar. The common reverse is especially nice.

In my opinion : The USMC 250th Anniversary Silver dollar's Obverse design is Very Sweet, Love the common Reverse Too....

Quote:I wonder if they'll do subscriptions for the ASE's? My take would be that these proofs might be a 1 year event, so they probably wouldn't let you subscribe. That's just my guess. I would if they offered it. It'll be interesting to see if they keep doing privy mark bullion and proofs. I think I've already made up my mind that my silver proof set subscription is going to have to go now. Waiting for news on bullion privy ASEs coming up. I have one star privy MS69, I'd like to pick up a raw one at some point for my bullion set.

Another year, another late release for the annual Mint Set. From the looks of it, that will be my only purchase from the Mint in 2025. The 2025 Marine Corps dollar is basically the exact same design as the 2005 Marine Corps dollar, further emphasizing the redundancy of this unneeded commemorative program a mere 20 years later.

As a collector of military themed coins, I wish there is more information about the ASE Army, Marine, and Navy production numbers. I hope it's not another V75 ASE fiasco. These additional ASE's are gona wreck my wallet if I can get them. Curious, is anyone looking to purchase the DC coins/medals.

We as collectors are being brought down the proverbial rabbit hole of the U S Mints humble existence, If your along for the same ride as others, in collecting this American Silver Eagles Series, These Would be just Another coin in that series, That We all Will Want too.  I read a member here stated that they Hoped that the Privy marks they will come out with Will not be an Over Populated theme, Looks like They were right, The Newest ASE series direction Will have the Military themes, What will ever take place in the years to Come.Year......

I know the Gold V75 Eagles was a mess, as well as the 2019S ERP. Were the ASE V75s also a 2 minute sell out and the site kept crashing?
