So instead of just the regular W mint Silver Eagle Proofs, it looks like they are starting to sell S Mint ones now? Did this just start? Not another series to collect. ![]()

Special occasion- Return of the S Proof
2017 S ASE proof was included in two mint offering, both showing as sold out on the mint website:
ITEM 17 RC - 2017 LIMITED EDITION SILVER PROOF SET, 48,906 in sales per the mint website.
ITEM 17 RF - 2017 CONGRATULATION SET, 74,898 in sales per Numismatic News.
Based on the performance of the 1995 W special issue ASE proof, the 2017 S special issue is probably a good coin to have based on it's less than 125K mintage. Wish I had done this research before they sold out.

This was known back in October when the product schedule was released.
(And in case you missed it, they released the S-Mint ASE last year.)
This is the first year they'll sell it as a stand-alone product...
Yea I didn't know it until I just looked at the product schedule for 2018. I noticed they were put in the Limited proof sets. Now to decide whether I want to start collecting both mints or just stay with my W mints.

Well, stay tuned. I don't think there'll be a mintage limit on the S-mint coin, but if the Mint does only do, say, 100K, it might be the hit of the year...
There was an S proof and S RP in the 2012 San Fran and the 2012 C & C set (PF) and as a single S proof in the 2017 Congratulations Set. In addition there was S burnished in 2011 Annie Set
It will be interesting to see mintage limits if any for the 2018
Darn.... I am being lured back into proof ASE's.....
Well, there are worse things that could happen
Guess I will get one, as I did with the previous one's.... Cheers, RickO
