$30 for packaging sure but the US mint has the best packaging around. Hey folks don't miss the CCF contest https://goccf.com/t/135086 And a chance to win an American Silver Eagle set of gifts including this garment:  |

To be fair, the government needs to bring in as much money as it can, even if its overpriced...I know i'd never buy it. Not a huge ASE fan. |

Opening sales weren't too bad on this set, apparently some people are finding it collectible.
19,290 sold out of 50,000 mintage.

I'm taking a pass on this set. I plan to purchase three more of the Coin and Currency set instead (already bought two). I can't wait to see what the final mintage figure is for the San Francisco ASE set. I think the 2012-S ASE is destined to be a semi-key of the series. I think more and more people are realizing it, too; ergo, the spike in sales of the set this past week. |

They just charged my CC for the two sets I bough when issued. Looks like they will be in the mail soon. Funny thing is I completely forgot I ordered them, good thing I have more the $300 in my checking account or I would have been SOL.

I'll admit to the attractive packaging, but as the components could be assembled for nearly $30 less that's a premium to could go into 1 oz of Ag. If it had been $129.95 I might have sprung for a couple of sets. I'll keep an eye out for these and see how they do in the secondary market.
