30th Anniversary ASE set: Speculation about composition

Baley

So, what do you think will be included in the next Special Set? Will it be, as rumored, 7 coins, four different mints (including Denver) and, in addition to the regular, satin, proof, and reverse proof, will it include the first ever incuse ASE? What do you think? Is it too soon to get really excited about this?

All depends on the mint branches still being around in five years.

Maybe they could throw in a DC overstrike/counterfeit with complete hysteria ensuing.

I wanna see an incuse strike SAE

If hyperinflation comes to pass, the next set may be in the 1/10 ounce size.

I predict they will reestablish Mints in Charlotte, Dahlonega, and New Orleans for the occasion.

Holographic Carson City strike that glows in the dark.

They'll open a mint branch on Mars and issue an ASE from there.

There will be a holographic strike sometime in the near future. They're already using lasers to (clumsily) frost the dies. They could just as easily put a hologram, or at least a CD-style rainbow field in the die that would transfer to the coin. No idea how many strikes it would last before the die would have to be "re-imaged."

Guess that CC Mint is too new for you purists! But hey, it does have a working coin press!
