Why do visions of Maples and Kookaburras, at 10-15,000 mintage and lots of cool south sea island nation 5,000 mintage, appear dancing through my mind. 🤨
The mint has finally sunk into common ground with all the rest. Actually, there’s alot of issues for outside the US that I find far more desirable and far superior quality. 😉🦫🙀
The Air Force is okay, I very much like the Navy and am interested in the Space Force. There is potential for crossover interest in these to veterans and family that don't collect coins or the USM process. Would like a number lower enough to be desirable but allow for availability to those. Yes many great designs elsewhere I like (S Korean Tigers 4 Seasons and the annual Germania and Allegories come to mind).
As this thread is for a history of the 2022 ASE's how about starting a new thread for discussions on the Silver Military Medals.
That way everyone will have one convenient thread to go to about them.

If things go like they went with Rhode Island , Vermont Innovation dollars and the Kennedy halves a boatload of the Uncirculated Silver Dollars should magically appear within the next week. Way before returns would even be possible. With the Rhode Island and the Vermont it was nearly 2/3 of the original mintage limits after the remind me button came up the first day of sales.
There we go. Just like clockwork. Back to 16,207 on the Silver Eagles just I said 2 days ago.
I think many of these were returns from dealers. The dealers buy the coins, send them to NGC or PCGS for grading, and those that don't come back as 70 (plus maybe a few at 69) are sent back to the Mint.

The Mint’s return period is 7 days - it would be difficult to send coins in for TPG grading and receive back prior to the 7 day return period window expiring.
Could be returns that were pre screened by dealers, dealer returns because of lack of demand, delays in Mint reconciliation of their inventory, customer returns or a host of other reasons. It's the mint. Remember that box of chocolates thing.
Moral of the story: Demand is low, returns are high so only buy what you like to keep.
" If you push something hard enough, it will fall over. " The 1st Law of Opposition from The Firesign Theater
Actual demand for a new mint issue is not fully known until the day it goes on sale. For this reason many dealers will load up know they can return after they have seen how the initial sale goes. It cost them nothing to return them to the mint.
I believe all this talk of returns is fine. One problem.
Ever return something, it takes for EvEr. Also the mint has changed its cancellation/ return policies.
So no, we don’t think that there’s a secret return policy for the big boys.
There has been some serious issues with flippers and returns. The mint has made changes and continues to this day.
Just our thoughts and a few facts. Jzyskowski and the boys 😉🦫🙀

Same here. Cost me some burnt bacon for breakfast as I jumped on my mint acct and signed up for the S proof. But, that was some fine burnt bacon (on 1 side ). I'm in!

PLEASE NOTE: THE ENROLLMENT STARTS WITH 2023. NOT THIS YEAR.
Well, those sneaky bastyds!!! Thought I was set for the upcoming ASE-S.
OK, still I dont expect too much trouble ordering them, the W and Unc went smoothly.
I'm not so sure about the S-Proofs not starting until 2023. I see what it says, but I also note that it has a price, which the other ASE enrollments don't have. Enrollments generally cover ALL future releases, and the 2022-S has not yet been released.
Maybe reopening the enrollments now was a mistake, maybe not, but I wouldn't be shocked if they honor these in 2022, given how they have been randomly cutting some people back all along.
They will not honor these enrollments for 2022. You can only get them if they go on general sale. The mint has opened enrollments for future years for many coins and sets in the past and they did not give access for the current year.
Keep watching at 7:30 AM EST until the sold out sign is posted.

Yes, this is interesting. It could be a typo. I would not be surprised if this starts with the 2022 coin. As you stated, the price is indicated, which they would never do over a year in advance. Also, the photo is of the 2022 coin. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see.
not always the case. As reported by Coin World the prices for the 2023 morgan & peace dollars have already been posted in the Federal Register. That is where prices are established for new coins. See the first post in my 2023 Morgan & Peace Dollars thread. Many times the mint web pages are corrected for mintage limits and HHL and on sale dates. I don't know if prices can be changed after posting in the Federal Register. Anybody have any further knowledge of this?
" If you push something hard enough, it will fall over. " The 1st Law of Opposition from The Firesign Theater
The Mint has seen a trend forming with these popular releases. Their announcements of sellouts from enrollments have been accurate - up until near the cancellation deadline. Then, tens of thousands of enrollment coins become available via people (flippers) canceling or reducing their numbers.
They expect this trend to continue for the 22-Ss and are opening enrollments back up to allow more collectors (who are paying attention) a shot at a hassle-free experience.

Yes, prices are always subject to change, particularly when the item contains precious metals. My point specifically with respect to the Proof-S mint ASE is that the Mint has now opened enrollments for all ASE products, and they all say beginning with 2023, but the products that have already been released have the list price as TBD while the S-mint ASE lists the price as $73. In fact, it's TBD on the product page, but it's $73 on the enrollment page. This implies this is the price for the current year product.
We won't know until enrollment shipment e-mails go out prior to 8/9, but don't be shocked if people signing up now receive 2022-S coins. Enrollments rarely if ever close and then reopen. People signing up for enrollments and not getting the current year coins pretty much always, to my knowledge, sign up AFTER the coin is released, not before. You know way more about this than I do, so please correct me if I am wrong, but that has always been my observation.
In any event, something like this has never been seen before, where they "sell out" via enrollment and then make plenty of coins available at release. Since they previously set high limits for enrollments, and then arbitrarily reduced orders prior to shipment, and then had plenty of coins available for purchase on release day for the other two 2022 ASEs, it will not be surprising to see these coins available for purchase on 8/9.
Since the enrollment was opened a month before release, it will also not be surprising for people enrolling now to receive shipments. Do you know of any other time when enrollments were accepted more than a few days prior to release that were NOT honored for the current year?
Of course, since they DO say it begins in 2023, it also would not be surprising if the enrollment does not begin until next year. Let's face it -- anything is possible with these guys!

I suspect you're right that people who sign up today will get 2022-S coins. I just wish they would be more accurate with the terminology and call it a pre-order which is pretty much what it has become. Or just allow pre-orders also which are the same thing as an enrollment with automatic immediate cancellation of future releases.
much processing going on with the Morgan & Peace enrollments as well as the 2023 ASE enrollments. Expect possible delays in notices and account updates.
" If you push something hard enough, it will fall over. " The 1st Law of Opposition from The Firesign Theater
Just received the 2022 Collector’s Guide from the Mint. It states the 2022 ASE’s Enrollment inventory has been depleted. The current enrollment will only get you from 2023 on. You will have to get lucky with online purchases for the 2022 Proofs. The uncirculated ones are still available
" If you push something hard enough, it will fall over. " The 1st Law of Opposition from The Firesign Theater
Less than 30 days before the San Francisco ASE goes on sale and still no mintage or HHL info on Mint website. Data Available showing 0 for now. Stay tuned.
" If you push something hard enough, it will fall over. " The 1st Law of Opposition from The Firesign Theater
Will the Mint post mintage and HHL limits for the S ASE before it is too late for flippers to cancel their enrollments? Most likely they will, however weak hands should bail out early.
" If you push something hard enough, it will fall over. " The 1st Law of Opposition from The Firesign Theater
2023 S Enrollments have a limit of 25. I forget what the limit was on this years was. If they over produce these I expect a lot of buyers will lower their enrollment quantities if they can before going on sale.
" If you push something hard enough, it will fall over. " The 1st Law of Opposition from The Firesign Theater
I hope these do better than the burnished ASE’s , which went available ( although the “Chocolatres” told us they sold em all, enrollments) June!! 1st. and are STILL available 🤨🙀🦫
The 2022 S ASE will be very tough to get unless you are locked in with an enrollment. It will be easier in 2023 because mintage will be increased (hence the current enrollment availability beginning with the 2023).

Its not you, I'm just not sure I trust the Mint on this at this point.
@JeffM said:

I agree - the 2022 S ASE will be very tough, if not impossible to get on release day.
The "S" sold out on enrollments, well before the "W" earlier this year. I tried to ask (earlier in this thread I believe) why the "S" Proof was more popular than the "W" proof but I don't believe I ever really got an answer.
I was able to enroll in the "W" Proofs earlier this year...and later increased my order to 100 right before shipping with no problems (I had a buyer who asked me to buy as many as I could - it was not a large profit maker but it certainly helped pay for some of my other purchases.
I'll be trying to buy the 2022 "S" proofs when they go on sale - but I don't believe there will be any...after all, the Mint did tell us that enrollments were a HUGE success and stuff was sold out via enrollments - but then again, on release day for the "W" proofs, there were plenty for sale!

It is also my understanding that once you enroll in a product you stay enrolled year after year. If you don't want the product that yeas simply uncheck the "active" box and check it again when you are ready for the next enrollment.
