20th GAE A12 grades in- sent in my one lonely set

WheatFanatic

I had my one and only 20th GAE sealed box (the other is opened) and decided to play the PCGS Lotto so I sent it in last week. They got it yesterday and since I used 5-day express (I'm going on vacation so I had to get it done faster) they really zipped through this one! The MS-70 is a nice "consolation" prize since the Reverse Proof or DCAM didn't make it.

According to the latest PCGS population report only 195 have been certified as MS-70 First Strikes, less than half of the Reverse Proofs, so all in all not too shabby I guess.

1 2006-W $50 Eagle-20th Anniversary Rev Proof US PR69
2 2006-W $50 Eagle- 20th Anniversary US PR69DC
3 2006-W $50 Eagle-20th Anniversary US MS70

BTW- does anybody know if the UNC Gold coin in the GoldSilver 2-piece set get's the exact same labeldesignation as the one on the 3-piece set?

thanks,

WF

I would like to see the ms70 jump up in value since they are more scarce than the reverse proof.

I have one of each and I dont understand why the ms70 is going for so much less than the rev proof.

Sure I know this is the first rev proof gold ever, but look at the population of the ms compared to the rev proof.

Now if I can just get my last set to yield a pr70dcam. Then we are talking!

You may be overlooking the fact that the MS are also available in the 2-coin anniversary set, with limited edition of 20,000 so there are three times as many MS 20th AGEs out there as reverse-proofs. As a result, the differences in the amounts sold on eBay through early last night for example are signficant:

PCGS MS: 31
NGC MS: 77

PCGS Reverse Proof: 12
NGC " : 20

Almost a 3:1 ratio

Not to mention the Unc "W" is available in Singles. Granted they won't be Anniv. sets, which should carry a premium, but the fact is, there could still be 100's more Unc "W" 70's. After they stop making them and we get a final mintage we'll have to see how rare these are.

As for the Rev. Pr., there will NOT be anymore made.
