I signed up for a subscription to these (and other annual offerings) since shipping is free with subscriptions and each subscription order counts towards your 3 annual purchases for the loyalty program.
Anyway, received notification last night that my card had been charged for the 2019 W Proof ASEs so those should be on my doorstep in a few days and headed into the CAPS album!
Now I just have to figure out what to do with those pesky S Proof ASEs from the last couple of years...

Quote: Now I just have to figure out what to do with those pesky S Proof ASEs from the last couple of years... That's the rub with albums. The album maker produces the album expecting the Mint to be consistent in its offerings, and then gets thrown a curve ball. I'm sure CAPS will adjust at some point and you'll be able to replace the page. I'm a little surprised you can't get a new page already as CAPS does seem to be fairly quick on putting out album pages. I see that they already have Innovation $1 pages available

Did you find this on their website? I can't seem to locate them. Thanks.

No, I saw the Innovation $1 Album on Valley Coins website. Here's the link. Says they're in stock w/ a price of $25.09. It is for the complete album and not just the pages, but since the album is available I would think the pages should be as well. Here's the description from the Valley Coins website Quote:This album is designed for the American Innovation Dollars from 2018 to 2025. It is three pages to start, but we expect the Mint to continue producing varieties (such as the 2017 enhanced uncirculated or 2018 reverse proof coins) which will be added to this CAPS Album as they are produced. Volume 2 will be available before the 2026 coins are produced.

Very rarely do I agree with the album makers regarding what should be and shouldn't be included in a series.

Seems as though these are off to a pretty hot start this year compared to the 2018 coin.
The latest sales report indicates 227,270 individual coins, 19,022 Congratulations sets and 512 bulk packs (210 coins each) sold for a total of 353,812 prf 2019-W ASEs sold in the first 2 weeks of sales.
The latest sales report for the prf 2018-W ASEs indicates 399,921 coins sold (342,434 individual, 182 bulk packs and 19,267 Congratulations sets) after more than a year of sales.

Celtic Knot, May I suggest a blank page in the said album,to hold the "other minted ASE'S " till the album maker catches up and has an updated page to replace the original page. That's just what I do...... Just a thought..........

That's just what I do...... Just a thought.......... Great idea. I think I might take you up on that. With CAPS you can order custom pages so I could order one titled "Other ASE Issues" (or whatever) as you suggest and then update with the "permanent" pages if/when they come out. I like it! Thanks!

my 2019-W ASE arrived today. I was trying to get a few decent pix earlier, but my stomach was begging for a sandwich.
