But that subscription shows that the shipping date as "TBD" and Item number listed as "MN"  Now, the 2026 'W' ASE (dual date and privy) (also available with a subscription) This one shows a shipping date as 20 Jan and the item number is '26EA'  My question is, Is this a different, new and separate subscription from the the one from last year and do we need to also order this 2026 subscription?  Without seeing the entire 2026 Schedule, it is difficult to determine if they are one and the same or a special one for 2026 - and if so, why have a subscription for it?

I saw this yesterday as well, but if you click on the subscription tag the product is MN for the 2026 ASE.

I too checked the mint website. It looks like the WestPoint mint has a proof dual dated ASE, but there is a proof 2026 "P" in a congratulations set. I now wonder if there will be a on going Philadelphia proof issue..........

Interestingly, the congrats set Philly single-date has a mintage limit of 60k and HH limit of 1, one of the lowest. The product limit is none, but I don't think that matters in this case?

I had to "purchase" a congrats set subscription just in case it would be the only P mint ASE. Without a complete list - it is hard to set my goals for the next year. Hopefully sometime this month they will finish the list for next year.

For only $2 more, it's not too hard to take. Yes, we'll have to see what the rest of the year looks like before getting too steamed over it. And at least it's in a fairly normal clamshell and in a normal mint capsule.

Thanks for chiming in Gilly!  But I'll be watching the mint for that first W ASE a few days before the sale date of Jan 20 to see if one get ordered from my subscription.

Thanks for the heads up, I am surprised they have a 500K mintage and 10 per household limit

500K mintage means a better chance to buy one but will be too high mintage for them to appreciate a lot in value in my opinion.

 I think the US Mint is going to use all of my 2026 coin budget

Quote: I think the US Mint is going to use all of my 2026 coin budget As a almost strictly ASE collector, I'm hoping it'll be easier on my budget, rather than worse. No S proof or Limited Edition set. But will add the silver proof set, to get the special SemiQ coins,I dropped that subscription just this year. Otherwise I wouldn't add that set. This year I did buy the gold Sac dollar. I can't afford and only a little interested in the best of the mint series, no interest in the companion medals. So unless they do some ASE 40th anniversary sets, not much right now. Mainly the 2 January releases and eventually the Uncirculated.I do have a bullion version on pre-order.
