Just in case you didn't know next year you can subscribe to the congrats set and limited edition set. When they first announced it, you couldn't subscribe just yet, it was before the 2023 limited edition set was released. I got subscribed to both, one was listed as "limited availability", meaning almost close to a sell out, as far as getting a subscription to it. They must hold quite a few back for online shoppers. Thought my ASE pals should know. Edited by Gilly 12/22/2023 10:51 am

Thanks GILLY, I must say, While the Subscription Program Has its Obvious Benefits, I see Another View, The HUNT will Never be the same,  Our Collections will Have Another Value placed upon it, The Value of Having the Coins, others have Not, back when The Call Ins were Touchy, NOW, I see Everyone gets a coin, which is the Idea, I Also see, The collectibility of The Now Coins, Must take a hit , in that Now Everyone has the coins....... The Thrill, a Certain Genuine excitement took place when The High-Noon Free For All that, Although a Circus Show took Place, We Collectors Were There., and We Fought to receive a Coin....  .. It was Both Thrilling and Exciting. We Never Knew, Would We get through and Get a Confirmation!!!! Seems the " Subscriptions " Have Benefits and Maybe, They leave an Adventurous Past, in " Just " Our Memories.......

My view on that, is on the hard to order coins, due to low mintage and no available subscriptions (to the little guys like us, anyways, maybe not the big dealers), is they had way to many flippers, who also used these "bots" to either order coins for them or just generally screw up the system so THEN they could get them. THEN they got the coins and did they go into their collection? NO, they are the ones who then set the price on them in the aftermarket. Would I have loved to have gotten the 2019S ERP for the initially offered price? You bet! Would I have flipped it? No! It would be in my collection right now and I wouldn't have had to spend $1200 for it! So I have NO problem playing it safe and subscribing to it. Yeah sometimes you can get a better deal a few months or a year later, buying from the aftermarket. But to me it's worth it, just to say that there's NO chance it's a fake and that I'm the original purchaser, straight from the Mint (or at least Memphis, lol)

Agreed GILLY, I would Also say, Buying from the U S Mints, gives me Too,  a certain degree of Security... ( Aftermarkets are Full of Seconds...) PS, Although the Quality Control There, Actually the Sleeping QC, Needs to Improve Big Time !!!!

They need to get a handle on poor products. They have to be losing a ton of money on returns! Slow down or decrease production. They sit on a lot of inventory, they don't NEED to flood the market, it's stupid. They seem to have the bot problem fixed, why don't they make it like when the 2021 Morgan and Peace dollars came out. Have people really wanting something that really is limited, but make it fair to the collectors. Let people who want ONE get ONE, then after the first day, if any are left, then, and ONLY THEN, let the big dealers and grading houses get them. Let the most people (the average Joe collector) get a shot at them. They do things all backwards. And LOOK at the coins before shipping, do they just assume they are perfect? They could probably automate the inspection, a computer should be able to pick it most problem coins.

Gilly, While We discuss QC, lets just Hope they get Better, Before They get Worse..... I have Another Idea, Lets say To Sweeten the Pot, if You Will, The Subscription program Should Have Another, Random, Very Few, Signed and Numbered COA Cards....  PS, The Program should Start, Out with an Extra Benefit.  ..... Draw
