Sure, that would be nice financially, but I didn't put this set together for financial reasons, but did so because of the beauty, and that every design is different, and I'm a big fan of our National Parks.

I thinking...Sell out on the first day...What do others think? My guess is no. Other recent issues have sold a total of only around 13,000 - 15,000 out of the 20,000 available. Being the premium is very high over spot, my guess is this will not be in super high demand for potential flipping at a significant profit. I hope I am wrong and you are right - that the demand is super high, and that results in new blood getting an interest in this series.

There is no Household Limit on the last puck, it is the last puck and we all saw what happened to the last Type 1 ASE this year with a HHL of 99. I'm not taking any chances and I will be buying at noon on the 8th. I would do an enrollment, but those are no longer a guarantee since some ASE enrollments weren't fulfilled on the last issue. I only need one more to complete the set, I don't want to get shutout now. |

@Winesteven. Amazing collection. Where did you acquire most of them? Did you get most right away or wait a bit?

@Winesteven. Amazing collection. Where did you acquire most of them? Did you get most right away or wait a bit? When I read about the start of the series shortly before it came out in 2010, I was interested, but at that time my income did not allow for me to purchase these. I also seem to remember that at the beginning the prices of new issues were much higher, but only after a couple of years or so did the issue pricing drop. Then around 2013 my income increased to the point that I felt I could afford them, so I started putting the set together, buying the past releases on ebay. Almost all of the new releases I would buy from either Modern Coin Mart or APMEX. During the past two years or so, as grading at PCGS for this series apparently got tighter and the supply MCM and APMEX chose to have graded was reduced (to some extent due to lower collector demand), I would regularly speak to the Product Specialist at APMEX to find out when they would be available online, and I would then be ready to pounce the momemt it became available. |

Wow, what a collection, Winesteven! And a good story too.  My story is much more straightforward: US Mint subscription... fire and forget. |

I'm glad to see this series come to an end, if only for the fact that I don't have to buy these things 5x/year!  |

Yes, I'm glad it's over once I purchase the Tuskegee coin. https://www.PCGS.com/setregistry/bu...edset/117580 The 3" silver coins can only be obtained in MS69DMPL condition, not PR69DCAM? I am thinking about starting an ATB Silver Quarter Proof Set sometime later this year or next, I assume in regular diameter. Edited by NumisEd

Is that because the US Mint did not polish the 3" dies well enough and didn't strike the coins twice? Or was it never the plan to strike Proof bullion coins in the first place?
