I check back to LC Coins for the SF 2012 ASE set, I went into their Bullion Coin => ASE => Proof and saw these listing for ASE Proof (with pictures of non silver coins).....

http://www.lccoins.com/1989-s-silve...am-pcgs.html
http://www.lccoins.com/1986-s-silve...am-pcgs.html
http://www.lccoins.com/1988-s-silve...am-pcgs.html
http://www.lccoins.com/1990-s-silve...am-pcgs.html

What's your best "lesson learn" (IE: Many collectors know the phrase "Buy the coin, not the slab.")?

So the contest is for the best caption/lesson learn for these listing.

Prize will be one (1x) US mint clad proof set (I'll pick the date/year).

One entry per qualify member per day.
Contest end when LC Coins fix these listing.
Restriction: The phrase can NOT contain any of these words: listing(s), picture(s), slab(s) or slob(s).

"I can't believe I just picked up these unique, previously unknown ASE varieties for only $79 each!"

Thanks for the contest, looking forward to see some more captions.

Who needs silver when you can have a cupro-nickel mix for the same price?

"from a distance they don't look just right..... but up close there perfect!"

They got the American part right, but there is nothing Silver or Eagle about them.

I guess 1 out of 3 ain't bad.

A penny bought for $79 is a penny earned at a high price.
