"Special" proof and collector versions





West Point issues. Does not specify if annual burnished ASE will also be issued but I would think so.

The decline from democracy to tyranny is both a natural and inevitable one.

    Yes, it also notes that the West Point's Uncirculated version will have smooth edges and edge lettering.

    "Gonna need to keep the gimmicks coming to keep demand up and keep selling all this metal for these margins, or, ideally, higher "premiums" over the silver price"

    "Any Ideas?"



    "Hey, how about we change the metal content! Pure silver is popular!"

    "For sure, we'll keep changing the designs!"

    "How about we do something different with the edges!"



    "Great guys, let's do it! Any other ideas? Let's brainstorm, we need GIMMICKS!"



    "Well, some of our competition mints are "colorizing", how about we add color and rainbow holograms?"

    "Scratch n sniff!"

    "Skulls are popular, how about some with skulls on them!"

    "How about we put prettier, even more scantily clad girls on some coins! Old dudes dig that!"

    "What about we embed a chip in the coin that makes lights and sounds!"

    "What about a "transformer" coin that turns into a robot toy? Kids dig that"



    "Now you're thinking! How about something for the ladies? Most of this stuff is sold to men, how do we get women to buy novelty coins?"



    "hmmmm... that's a tough one"



    "well, get to work on it, we'll meet again soon..."

    Oooo, look at the fun coin/toy crossover items!



    Yeah, silver is a really scarce and useful commodity image
