Do dates on uncirculated ASEs affect the price?

Are the 2010s worth more than previous years coins?

Thanks.

    Only if that date is 1996. They sell for about double melt, maybe a tad more.

    Never could figure that one out. Lowest mintage year, but still....3.6 million minted
    ASE mintage and info

    APMEX seems to think it does. They charge as much as $7.99 over spot on early years.

    1996's sell for around 3x melt at most shows being the key and only key date.

    Lowest mintage, YES...but does that automatically make it "the key date"? Not really. At 3.6 million pieces, it is the lowest mintage of the group. However, when you consider that another 8 dates are at 5.5 million or less, that 3.6 million figure means very little. So with 9 of 24 coins having a mintage of 5.5 million or less, and the lowest of that group being 3.6 million, how can you really call it the key? There is no "real" seperation in actual rarity between a 1996 and a 1986. Its simply a matter of psychological rarity, or perception. Calling the 1996 "the key and only key" is irresponsible IMO.
