Good Morning! Welcome to the Forum Klatsch...a small group that refuse to give up on an almost sold out coin from the mint. Some would call us diehard coin chasers. Hats off to @jmlanzaf for mentioning Coffee Klatsch on the last epic attempt at the AGE 75 with a tiny mintage of 1945. So I ask, "What's next?". What will be the tough one to get? The most recent Law Memorial/Christa McAuliffe coins are on a new Pre-Order status and don't deserve the NADA status. How about the proof ASE coming up Feb 11? That should be interesting. The last Heraldic Eagle. Hmmm, HHL is set at 99.

Unfortunately, it's impossible to know.
The last Heraldic Eagle could have been good if it was limited edition of 100k with HHL of 1. 327,000 is a sufficient amount. Of course, the HHL of 99 could create a short term squeeze but it's not going to have much in the way of legs.
Beyond that, they haven't really announced the mintage limits. If they go short on any of the transitional eagles, you might have something. But so far, I don't see anything.
Of course, that doesn't mean we can't have coffee every morning!
SHHHH... Don't tell anyone... but there is this coin... from the year 2020... Limited and hard to get. Not as exciting as the AGE 75 but close... it only shows itself on rare occasions. The coin you ask... ASE 75. It goes something like this...
Not this morning.
Well.. I do not drink coffee... but always willing to klatsch...
Cheers, RickO
I once had a case of the Klatsch in the late 70's. No fun

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......
My bet is on the two coin ASE set. I think that is the one the mint is going to try to hose up next fall.

All is quiet on the frontline.
C'mon klatsch buddies, where are you?
I did grab a V75 silver medal (NOT ASE) this morning while I was stalking the silver eagle proof.
I really didn't want to play the game with the silver eagle proof, but I haven't been buying much lately and I got tricked into buying 75 of them. LOL
I'm here! Saw no activity and thought this thread wasn't going to make it...but did pick up an ASE this morning right at 7:30.
I was trying for the Congrats but I don't think they made too many of those to start. Any numbers sold yet?
You got 75 proofs? Phew! That's gonna be a heavy box.
Next crazy crazy mint hose up will
Be the two coin ASE for later in the year.

Actually, it's 5 different orders. LOL. The longer they were available, the more I got sucked in!
There's a link in the thread for these. 285,000 1st day sales and 35,000-ish for the Congratulations set. Don't ask me why they ended sales early UNLESS they are really aiming for 327,000 total and there's also bulk sales to dealers making up the difference. Do they still do the capsule only sales?
I never knew about the capsule only sales. That must be for large orders? Option for OGP or not?
Anyway, it looks like this ASE (Proof W Type 1 2021) is going to sputter out and be a long drawn out REMIND ME for awhile. Maybe I can snatch a CONGRATS this AM...probably not though.
I got one... I think. Got it, confirmed... then got an email about CC...checked it, all was ok... then got an email saying confirmed. So.... I think I got one....
Cheers, RickO
Great! The last of a great design.
Did you get it at noon or early morn?
@Onastone ... I signed in at noon.... did not know they were available before the listed hour. Cheers, RickO
At one time they were selling them directly to consumers in lots of 40 (?), if I recall. I don't see that option this year or last, but I think the 2019's still were sold that way.

They weren't. I think he means Friday morning vs. Thursday noon.
When you turn a trick, you REALLY turn a trick

LOL. You are either a whore or your not. There's no gradation.
They tricked me into buying 198 more today, so I'm still a whore...a whore with an addiction, apparently.
Proof ASE only available for about half a minute this morning. No Congrats either. Gotta ASE in the bag but it wasn't available at the last second. Hurumphhhhhh...
I guess the mint just doesn't have the packaging for the Congrats set...still unavailable but the Proof ASE pops in for about a minute each morning. Soon to be just another NADA morning. Don't spill your coffee.
It will start snowing here soon.... should get 5-6 inches.... But this is the Northeast, so winter as usual. I feel sorry for those in the Southwest who have been devastated by what, for them, is highly unusual weather. Cheers, RickO
It's amazing how the same weather that we shrug off is just devastating to people who aren't used to it. Of course they don't have snow removal equipment or de-icing equipment, but I'm amazed at the power outages. They must not trim their trees either.
As of this morning, the 2021 Proof W ASE was available for 30 seconds. Got one in my bag. That's as far as I could get...the final button push revealed an "invalid item in bag, please remove it." These are on the cusp of being Sold Out. What will the Type 2 coin be like getting??? Is the mint under limited production due to Covid? It's only February....the rest of this year could be a wild ride.
