Most people think the 2026 P Silver Eagle from the Congrats set holds the number 4 spot in the top Eagles, but in my opinion, that spot has already been claimed by the 2020 v75. If the trend continues, it will consistently surpass the 2008/07 and even rival the 2019 S Reverse Proof. Here are a few examples of recently sold 2020 v75 Eagles.

I think the numbering mechanism being discussed is strictly production numbers, not desirability or ability to increase in value. 2020 V75, 74,4049.

I've seen debates on both sides, but the clear key date for the series is 1995, which had a slightly higher mintage than the 2019 S.
As far as I know, the 2008/07 mintage numbers are just estimates.
In my view, mintage figures don't seem to have much impact on actual resale value—otherwise, the 2020 Reverse Proof Bush dollar would be worth a fortune.

No the 2008 Uncirculated rev of 2007 variety has a firm mintage number, it is 46,318. First reports were estimates. The Mint later confirmed the number, once the problem was backtracked to a specific press, where the reverse die was not changed. They knew exactly how many times that die was used on both 2007 and 2008 Uncirculated ASEs. My "hesitation", I guess you call it, about the 2008 rev of 2007, is just that it is a variety type coin. It's an error, but an error repeated 46,000+ times, so therefore a variety. That didn't plan or even know they were striking them. IIRC it was the last ASE I bought to complete my ASE set. Just love of begrudgingly bought it, I guess you'd say. I think I actually traded a modern Morgan and Peace dollar for it. Cost me less that way, although I think I could have done better by selling the 2021 coins and purchasing the ASE,I was just being lazy I guess. We were both happy.

Quote: In my view, mintage figures don't seem to have much impact on actual resale value I tend to agree with that. It's not the sole determining factor at any rate. I've learned that through my set collections, where they have super low mintage numbers, wonderful packaging the way the mint used to, and nobody gives a rip. All they see are sets with common-ish precious metal coinage in it and just add up the ounces and that's what it's worth, maybe $100 premium.

I believe, The Lowest Minted ASE'S were discussed. The 2026 Philly released ASE has the number 4 spot for the Lowest mintage ASE. If We are to be Real with the top 4 it Would go, 2019 ERP, 1995-W, 2008 REV O7, THEN THE 2026 Philly.  The reality is the 2019 ERP has a lower mintage then the 1995-W.....  The mintage for the 2020-W V75 WAS..Boba, How does this coin, In your opinion , have the ASE number 4 spot, Thanks... ps, Gilly, You are the American Silver Eagle Extraordinaire,

Quote: Gilly, You are the American Silver Eagle Extraordinaire Oh, you're too kind! I just believe that Boba is discussing desirability and value vs strictly production numbers, and there is a lot to be said for that. For me the 2 lowest rarity will have that top spot, unless something similarly boggling happens. The 19S ERP you can't say is any more beautiful that the 19W ERP, but so much more rare, and they are similarly cool. The 1995W was the rarest for so long, plus the panache of being in that gold set. After those 2 though, things start feeling a bit more competitive for picking favorites vs rarity. My few picks would be the 2013W EU, especially since it doesn't seem like this years EU is going to duplicate that finish. I've also had a soft spot for the 2011 S Uncirculated.
