I was able to find a few but need a list of Mint issue prices for ASE's (MS/PF) and Mint sets (Annual Dollar and PF). I am trying to get a start on recording a cost basis for tax purposes
TIA

I think the red book has mint/proof set issue prices?

The following might help with the Proof ASE's ...

Thanks...I need 2007-2016
In that case, I suggest searching old press releases.

For example, a quick scan of "Silver Eagle" + "Available Year = 2007" reveals:
~ the 2007 Proof-W ASE release
Link: https://www.usmint.gov/news/press-releases/20070312-2007-american-eagle-silver-proof-coins-available-march-27
~ the 2008 Proof-W ASE release
Link: https://www.usmint.gov/news/press-releases/20071226-american-eagle-silver-proof-coin-available-january-3
These two websites have issue prices for each US mint and proof set
(you will have to click each year individually as I don't recall there being one table for all years)

Well I had a major "Duh" moment. All my original purchase prices from the Mint were available...wait for it.....FROM THE MINT orders page....back to 2006 anyway....problem solved
Glad your dilemma is solved @BigA
Successful transactions with : MICHAELDIXON, Manorcourtman, Bochiman, bolivarshagnasty, AUandAG, onlyroosies, chumley, Weiss, jdimmick, BAJJERFAN, gene1978, TJM965, Smittys, GRANDAM, JTHawaii, mainejoe, softparade, derryb
Bad transactions with : nobody to date
easiest thing to do in the future is record price on a spreadsheet at time of purchase.

Some good reference links above. I agree with @derryb, record the prices as purchased. However, back in the early nineties, when I started buying sets, I was not so smart .... Got smart later though.... Cheers, RickO
