The biggest difference between the 1995W and the 2019S ERP is the price of entry for each coin. the 1995W was MSRP for the set of $1000, while the 2019S ERP was a price of $65. Not everyone could drop a grand on a coin set but everyone could drop $70 on a guaranteed lowest mintage coin. Its about demand. While the 2019S ERP DOES have a lower mintage of 125 coins, it will be a really long time to grow in price to match the 1995W if it would even. I would probably guess the 2019sERP would always be 1k less than the 1995W. Now if you want the real Holy Grail or King of the ASEs, its going to be the 2019S ERP that was signed by the mint director. Only like 100 exist (I dont remember how many he signed) and the cheapest I found sold on ebay was 5k asking and best offer accepted... |

If you had to own one, which one would it be: a 1986 ASE or a 1916 WLH? |

Quote: If you had to own one, which one would it be: a 1986 ASE or a 1916 WLH? It depends. is this 1916 a reverse or obverse proof mark and what is its condition? A 1986S Proof goes for like 80-100 on ebay. If you wanted a 1916 Half dollar then depending on condition and mint mark/location an AU is WAY ABOVE a 1986 ASE |

What I also do not understand is why the ASE series was started in 1986. Seem like a meaningless year to start a series. It would have made more sense to me to start the ASE series in say 1976, the US Bicentennial. |

While I Totally Appreciate the input, I need to be more clear. Seeing how the U S Mint's Modern coin production is more based Now on Pre-Sales , to figure out how many people or Demand for the products., creating a rarity or ?. I was wondering, and I appreciate the input, Does anyone believe the American Silver Series Could produce Another Available Rarity, Possibly knocking the 1995-W Aside. I too believe the 2019 ERP will Never take the Top prize , Even though is HAS A LOWER mintage, BUT will Another Contender rise up. Or perhaps the ASE Series that Ronny Placed into Law and Production, will Soon End and Start up Another National Collectible !!! Thanks for All the Input !!!  |

It would have made more sense to me to start the ASE series in say 1976, the US Bicentennial. The American Silver Eagle ( ASE) bullion program was approved as part of the Public Law that authorized the 1986 Statue of Liberty / Ellis Island (SoL-EI) commemorative coin program that celebrated the 100th anniversary of the dedication of the Statue of Liberty in New York Harbor. So, if you want symbolism for the "1986" date on ASEs, it can be found in the "Liberty Coin" as it was termed in the Act, matching up with the centennial of one of the US' most iconic symbols of liberty/freedom. In reality, Congress had been actively seeking a vehicle by which to reduce the US Strategic Stockpile of silver; it had been unsuccessful in moving larger (100 ounce) bars of silver earlier in the 1980s via auction, but during discussions regarding the SoL-EI commemorative coins, the Strategic Stockpile issue came to the forefront and a compromise was worked out that ensured the commemorative coin program would be approved if a silver bullion coin program was amended to the SoL-EI bill. A big part of the push for the bullion coin program was that many in Congress believed it was time for the US to enter the bullion coin market and compete against other nations already selling them.

A few years ago I convinced myself that the 2017-S proof ASE was a low mintage sleeper and under valued. I bought a large quantity of them. Well, its price has not significantly changed and they seem to be readily available in quantity. Go figure. |
