Taken from an August 9th interview Coin World had with Gloria Eskridge, the Mint’s associate director for sales and marketing, Eskridge said, the Uncirculated Mint set is slated to go on sale sometime in mid-September, with a redesigned packaging for the Uncirculated Mint set, eliminating the Mylar packaging used for the set for more than four decades. The new packaging comprises separate flip-up folders for the Denver Mint and Philadelphia Mint coins that alows the edge of the coins to be viewed.
<< <i>The U.S. Mint is also planning to combine an Uncirculated Presidential dollar coin with its companion First Spouse medal in an ongoing series of annual sets. The Mint has no timetable yet for the release of these sets, Eskridge said. The Mint will also offer two annual Uncirculated Dollar Coin sets, each containing six dollar coins. Each set will contain Uncirculated Mint set quality Presidential dollars, with Denver Mint coins in one set and Philadelphia Mint coins in the other, plus an Uncirculated Mint set quality Sacagawea dollar from the appropriate facility and an Uncirculated American Eagle 1-ounce .999 fine silver dollar with W Mint mark from the West Point Mint. >>

No wonder 2006 W's ASE are firming in Price, now!
It seems to me the potential for the 2006-W ASE has been overlooked in a fundamental way. Currently, we are assigning this coin a value based on a mintage of 470K. Please allow me to submit my exceptions to that mintage/valuation equation.
First, of the 470K, 250K were included in the Twentieth Anniversary Set. These sets are still highly desirable, despite their recent pullback from $500-$600 per raw set to $350-$450 per raw set. After all, this set was readily available $100 per for several months, and the fact that he market is still at 3x-4x that indicates a lasting value for those coins INCLUDED in the sets.
The Twentieth Anniversary Set has added value as a SET!
Therefore, we must consider the available population of 2006-W ASE to be somewhat less that the stated 470,000. If, conservatively, 80% of the twentieth anniversary coins are tied up in sets, that reduces the available number available from 470,000 to 245,000.

A complicating factor is that many collectors of uncirculated ASEs will also have a 20th Anniversary set. They may not feel the need to obtain an additional 2006-W to complete their uncirculated sets.
Therefore, even some of the coins that are tied up in sets will reduce the demand for single 2006-W uncirculated ASEs.

For 2007 I don't feel compelled to buy the set as described. Perhaps I'll change my mind when I see it but I doubt I'll want more than a raw 2007W.

Sorry to revive this thread. But am i to understand that the 6-coin unc dollar set will be non-satin finish? I think it would be very interesting.

<< <i>'Uncirculated Mint Set Quality' refers to the same coins that come in the Uncirculated Mint Set, i.e. satin finish coins >>
Thanks for clearing that up. Oh well. I think I will just stick to the complete 2007 uncirculated (Satin Finish) mint set. I normally buy a few more products every year but this year is just overwhelming. I remember the 90s when I was clamoring for anything new to be released. Now there is just too much.

the population is less if all slabbed 20th's stay slabbed, though. if for some oddball reason the stand alone Z6F goes higher than a slabbed 20th Anniv, then they get cut out if someone wants to sell. I think the 20th Ann TPG slabbed will have the lowest population of the 2006 W burnished mintage. weren't 20k in legacy sets?
