There were no proof ASE's in 2009.

Two good points: Quote:I wonder if this set will be carried through to next year since we will only have the ASE and Native American dollar coins in 2017. I'm guessing not Never even thought about that...one of my favorite no biggie sets probably will be toast  Quote:
Anyone know how many sets were initially made? I figure since this set is made up of coins the mint already has they only make a certain amount, say 20-30K, and if sales are low they just don't make anymore Mintage numbers are not released until final audit....just sales numbers. So...I agree with your assumption and that's why I said it could be interesting. They can still make sets but that would decrease the availability of the single W's which will end production (if not already) on Friday

It took some digging but here are some interesting stats on the Annual $1 sales over the years: Quote: 2015 Annual Uncirculated Dollar Coin Sets 22,691 Sold Out
2014 Annual Uncirculated Dollar Coin Sets 28,637 Sold Out
2013 Annual Uncirculated Dollar Coin Sets 43,150 Sold Out
2012 Annual Uncirculated Dollar Coin Sets 27,300 Sold Out Low mintage goes to last years' set not the 2012! Had to stop sales on 12/31 because of the edging thing

Just as an FYI, the US Mint website (not the sales one, the other one usmint.gov) shows 499,410 as both the number of uncirculated ASEs sold in 2011 and also the number of reverse proofs sold that year. Clearly someone goofed and listed the total number of coins in the sets sold in each case. The actual number of uncs in the sets should be 199,764 (one S and one W per set) and the number of reverse proofs should be 99,882. The totals given are also wrong because of this miscount.

Quote: Low mintage goes to last years' set not the 2012! Had to stop sales on 12/31 because of the edging thing Hmmm....very interesting. Wonder if the 2015 set will eventually over-take the 2012 in terms of what others are willing to pay for one.

Hmmm...just got around to checking the 10 I ordered and 6 have pieces of plastic in with the ASE and two with significant scratches across one or more coins....8 going back...

Fox, I am sorry to hear about waiting for Your sets and once in hand that visual excitement is watered down with defective coins.....   Best wishes with the returning sets...  PS, Many are in that boat.

In my experience it's like they purposly put defective coins in these sets. I tend to stay away from them for this reason.

Does anyone know what the total number of sets sold was? Noticed this set is no longer available on the us mint site. Also those selling on ebay seem to be asking for similar, if not more, than the 2012 set.

Hmmm...thanks for the heads up. I didn't see those prices until you mentioned it. Numbers for the last two weeks have been the same ..19629/19628 so it does look like it's done. I thought it would be an earlier finish but also thought more would sell. If this number holds it would be around 9000 lower than the 2012. Here's my post from February: Quote: Foxwoods Man 3770 Posts Posted 02/16/2017 07:24 am I have always liked this set. Decent packaging and reasonable price.
Question is just how many did they make last year/how many are left? 15,980 sold so far and they can't make any more.
The 2012 set had a mintage of over 28k and sells for $90-100 now This week sold sets ranged from a low ball $105 to a decent $139 with most in the $125-135 range With that said though the 2012 set sells for around 60 bucks

Thanks for the stats Fox. I too liked this set a lot and was hoping they would have continued it in some fashion. Would like to see something in maybe a non-circulating limited edition dollar coin set in the future.

Quote: This week sold sets ranged from a low ball $105 to a decent $139 with most in the $125-135 range So people are paying a crazy premium for the packaging? I bought 2 sets and was going to crack out the ASE to be a pocket piece since this set was only a few dollars more than the W ASE by itself.

Obviously I didn't have any graded
