Is there any new news on the 25th Annv ASE set? It's still not listed on the usmint.gov website. Hopefully this is something that will not be pushed out. Any news? |

I actually looked around the web today and nothing new besides the original news release. Late October release, no price yet. I'm really looking forward to this set too. Two coin only available in this set, the Burnished "S" mint and the Reverse proof, I'm really looking forward to, especially with the limited mintage. All those people paying premiums for Sanfrancisco minted bullion coins should feel embarrassed once these come out.

US MINT Press Releases
August 19, 2011 United States Mint Announces Plans to Issue American Eagle 25th Anniversary Silver Coin Set
WASHINGTON - United States Mint Deputy Director Richard A. Peterson today announced plans to issue a limited-edition five-coin set to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the popular American Eagle Coin Program. Peterson made the announcement at a coin forum held at the American Numismatic Association's World's Fair of Money® near Chicago.
The United States Mint American Eagle 25th Anniversary Silver Coin Set will include five one-ounce American Eagle Silver Coins:
* one proof coin from the United States Mint at West Point
* one uncirculated coin from the United States Mint at West Point
* one uncirculated coin from the United States Mint at San Francisco
* one reverse proof coin (frosted background with polished, mirror-like design elements/foreground) from the United States Mint at Philadelphia
* one bullion coin
All five coins will be mounted in one custom-designed, highly polished, lacquered hardwood presentation case accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity. The United States Mint plans to produce up to 100,000 American Eagle 25th Anniversary Silver Coin Sets with a household order limit of 5 sets in effect. The United States Mint expects to begin accepting orders in late October. A price has not been set.

So how will it work, will it suddenly show up on the mint's ASE section? Or will they release more info as the time gets closer. I guess this release and NP6 will be my Christmas Present to myself.. Anybody wanna buy a 82 Harley?  |

I expect a date of sale announcement as a PR near the 1st week of October with pricing set a week or so before issue. |

With five "one ounce" silvers in the set, and the price of silver being at $40.95 (at this moment), that's AT LEAST $204.75 for just the bullion. Then there's the mint mark up, the packaging, etc... So, I am figuring around $295.00. Anybody else wanna take a stab at the price?  Edited by oih82w8

My guess for pricing would be $325....and this thing is going to sell out fast, unless the Mint mass produces it....which I hope they don't do!

So, I am figuring around $295.00. ...and when you put it against the "P" 5 ounce puck at $279 that is definitely in the ballpark ...but...since the proof is selling now at $68+ and the burnished reported at $60+ I will bump that price to $329.95 for the set |

My guess is $349.95.
Now, I don't want it to be there, but I'm trying to not get my hopes up. :)
Getting slammed with NP6 and this set is going to hurt. Oh well, we do what we must...

Betting that the Mint doesn't want to get caught short, I'm guessing $379.95.
Is there some way to put a poll into an existing thread?

They couldn't have just kept it to a 3 coin set, blarg. Better start hoarding the funds now.
