I did. Just one. The thing that makes it worth buying is the W mintmarked Silver Eagle. Are they sold out? Any mintage limits?
I didn't see anything on the mint website.

It'll make a nice gift at the very least.

Just opened the mail from yesterday and received a brochure from the mint on the 2007 presidential products, on the last page it shows the unc. dollar coin set with the ASE,
Although its still tough to read the blue area with the description of all (6) of the coins, it is legible under magnification, and it dose not state that the ASE has the "W" mint mark.........
stunning American Eagle Silver Dollar Coin produced at the United States Mint at West Point.
I beleive all eagles are minted at West Point.....no mint mark bullion included !

I'll bet you a cup of Dunkin Donuts Java, that it's "burnished" W ASE. It's very unlikely, although possible, that the Mint would sell the business strikes directly to the public. It would irritate the handful of wholesalers that the Mint uses for their bullion ASE distribution.

I have a gut feeling that there is something unusual or different about this set, that may make it a $$$$$ maker !
<< <i>You are probably correct, It just seems odd that the US Mint would not state that it has the "W" mint mark or that it is "Burnished", any publication I've ever seen concerning the the "Burnished" "W" ASE's has always stated it clearly....as a selling point I'm sure...

It's the same mint that forgot to mention that the 10th Anniversary Platinum Proof Set contains half ounce coins.

Your gut has been accurate so far

Why would they make a big deal out of the ASE being minted in West Point if it was the plain ol bullion example. Which one was included in the 2000 coin and currency set, the plain ol or the W?
I can't see where the bullion dealers will squawk too much about this since it is not sold as "bullion", and in far fewer numbers. More of a collector set, not bullion.
