2006 3 Pc Silver Eagle Set

Personally I purchased one recently just because I liked the set.
The different finishes I thought were awesome. Everything is only worth what
somebody is willing to pay. If you would like to have it in your collection I say go for it.
Look at the price it was released at and what it's going for now.
Have fun!

its a nice set for sure. When it came out I didnt know it was out, so I dont have it. I would like to get it one day. as far as an investment. yea maybe but only time will tell. Like muddler said though 500 was what they were selling for. and now there a couple hundred dollars less

I've wanted this set for a few years now. Every time I plan to buy it, I whined up buying something else. I've placed a few $260 bids trying to catch a deal, but you figure the price has to go up on these. The reverse proof, and the burnished are worth the 300 to me. I'm always thinking of the dream situation. Win a raw set on ebay for around 260. Set looks good from pics seller provided, The butterflies in your stomach seem to make the wait so much longer. It arrives well packaged, you open it. Right away you notice the little oxygen masks on Liberty's faces, cause the grade on these are as high as can be. You spend as much time as you can with them until you have to send them out into the wild, a pilgrimage to the holy land,PCGS. . The whole time your packaging them. You can't help but to think of every possible thing that could go wrong. The wretched people of the world! You contain yourself, Then think to your self, My luck the truck or plane will crash with my coins on it. You snicker an evil snicker, then tape the box shut as if it were a home intruder you got the drop on. You can hear the muffled cries of I'll miss you coming from your babies inside. Away they go. This is the hardest time. Seems like 6 years went bye. You step through your front door, out of the corner of your eye you see a familiar package. Your so locked into the package you don't even hear your wife say hello honey, have a good day. Before you can look away, your hand flips the keys and instinctivly has the longest sharpest one sticking out, You puncture the tape, as careful as a heart surgeon, and just as if this were open heart surgery with one smooth glide, The contents are within view. You pull away the paper to unveil.. three little body bags. LOL Just kidding.... Three perfect 70's. Wouldn't that rock.

Must have.

I am mainly interested in the burnished coin, but the reverse proof is so striking and the regular proof is always gorgeous........ Oh, heck I may as well bite the bullet and get the darn set. I kind of had a plan to stick with ASE's as only a bullion investment but this is an interesting set with its numismatic value intersecting the bullion. That's the problem with ASE's. They really grow on you. The only thing I'm torn about is this being a numismatic purchase. I would never get back what I put into the set but I do believe bullion ASE's will pay a tidy sum in profit if they would only get back down to a reasonable premium.

I think they are still worth it for the beauty. Got mine with all the original mint packaging already graded and given the Anniversary designation. $280 in April 2009. So, yea, they're going up. The 3 coin silver set was only 248,875 sets.

I want to own that set one day. Will surely be a great investment!
