Indian1 Pillar of the Community United States 3640 Posts	Posted 10/26/2009 8:27 pm Are all the reverse proofs only on the 2006-P silver eagle ? Has there been any 06 or other year W's found with the reverse proof ? Report this Post to the Staff

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 10/27/2009 09:49 am In the US series the reverse proof only comes on the 2006 ASE. (So far) Reverse proofs can be found on other world coins though. Edited by Conder101 10/27/2009 09:50 am Report this Post to the Staff
coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 10/27/2009 11:15 am Well, actually there's a 2006 reverse proof 1 oz. gold eagle, and a 2007 reverse proof 1/2 oz. platinum eagle. The best looking reverse proof coins in my opinion are the Britannia coins of Great Britain. Report this Post to the Staff
biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 10/27/2009 12:10 pm All of the US reverse proof coins can be found in either the gold and silver Eagle 20th anniversary sets or the platinum Eagle 10th anniversary set. Report this Post to the Staff
Indian1 Pillar of the Community United States 3640 Posts	Posted 10/28/2009 01:34 am Thanks all for the info. Were these dies originally from west point and then got mixed up with P or vice versa ? Was it the hub ? Report this Post to the Staff
biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 10/28/2009 10:26 am I think you are confusing the 2006 reverse proofs with the 2008W/2007 reverse Silver Eagles. The reverse proofs were meant to be reverse proofs, nothing accidental at all about them as they were special pieces minted specifically for the anniversary sets. They are the opposite of regular proofs- polished devices with frosted fields. 2008 marked some new hub changes for the Silver Eagle, the serifs of lettering were altered and the size of the stars was altered as well. A few 2007 reverses were used in conjunction with the new 2008 obverse and voila- you have a mule with an estimated maximum mintage of 47,000.

Indian1 Pillar of the Community United States 3640 Posts	Posted 10/29/2009 12:37 am Hi Yes, I am familiar with the 2008W/2007 reverse Silver Eagles as I have looked for them myself. I did mean the reverse proofs and now I see that the dies were made just for them and it was not a variety mistake on other coins. Report this Post to the Staff
