Impact of the sell out of the ASE 20th Ann sets

BearBear Posts: 18,953 ✭✭✭
The next few weeks should give evidence of the impact of this announcement

on the secondary market for the AES Sets. While debate seems equally split,

I believe that prices for sets as well as single, 70 grades, will begin a strong escalation

running thru the end of the year. They will then stabilize at this higher level, untill

demand again exceeds supply. While some AGE sets are still dribbling out from the Mint,

Pretty much all that there are of these sets, are already out in the hands of collectors, dealers

and speculators. Even at their high price, prices will continue to grow stronger thru the

end of the year. As rediculous as FS designations may seem, they will be in high demand by the

public and with the limited supply , should continue to do very well.

  • I did not know there was even a debate. A few thought the price would not appreciate much, but the majority thought the sets were and are going to be big winners. I agree with the majority.
  • There is no doubt that these sets ARE GONNA be hits...there is no way around it! Key RV Proof, second lowest of the Proofs...next to the 95W...then you have the lowest MS with a W...makings for a big hit set!

    Yowza!
    I especially like the last one... 70/70/69 .... I may have 2 possible sets like that!!! Now, I feel like a kid waiting for Santa (in this case, for PCGS' package to arrive).

    So bear tell me this...

    I have three unopened sets dated before 11/11 sitting in a box. 2 are my brothers, 1 mine. Hes in it for the money, but would like 1 set, I just want one set to hold onto and enjoy.

    How should I go about making a profit, yet still having 2 opened sets. Ideally, I could trade the box of three unopened for cash + two opened sets....

    I sold 4 sets to DNC at a very cheap $175/set.
    I wonder if they are fronting for one of the TV Coinshows?

  • The first 5 of my sets were delivered today. The postmark on the box was 11/13.
    this order was placed on 9/4 with a order number of 2319xxxx. I ordered 5 more sets on 10/1
    and I'm pretty sure they will be delivered also.

    I do believe these sets are keepers and I do expect some ups and downs in thier prices.
    I, like many others missed the first strike deadlines and will just have to wait and see the future
    for these.

    I have been watching the prices on Ebay also see that they have been edging higher for ungraded sets.
    I did want a couple "out of the box" so to say and picked 2 up for myself. Fortunatly I was able to save a few bucks
    on a "bin"......

    I would think, that with as many as these that are being sent off to TPG's there should be a strong demand down the road for sets in the original mint packaging.

    Those of us in the know, always request that PCGS return

    all boxes, paperwork and coin capsules to us. I then put the

    origonal box and all materials in a plastic baggie and place them

    in a cool place in the closet. That way, If the price of origonal sets

    goes up, I can always return the coins to their origonal Mint packages.

    When I buy a graded set, I always request the same packaging

    be sent to me.

  • So in hopes of getting a ASE for myself from the mint is just not going to happen image I am planning on standing in line to get a ps3 for over 12 hours on Thursday in hopes to flip it for over a grand profit. This should be enough to get that reverse proof 69 from the set. I guess I should try and buy it now as apposed to later when the price is just rediculous that I cant afford it. Any thoughts??
    Hey, Im new at this so cut me some slack!!

    My thoughts are... I really have no idea. These things could just go wild; but for how long, and whether they keep the high prices, I just don't know.

    If you ask me, I think the 'bargain' is to purchase the first strike ms68 or PF68. Those have, at least a couple of days ago, went really cheap. I would think any with the First Strike label will be a winner. So if you pick up the cheapies now, could pay off in the future. Same could apply to the reverse proof, although I suspect it is going for more than the ms or reg proof.

  • Now the date has past to receive First Strike designation on the 20th Anniversary ASE Pr and Reverse proof coins if your shipping date is later than 11/11/06. Will simply having the 20th Anniversary Designation be valuable for Ebay Buyers or is First Strike the only really valuable designation ?? Thanks, Mark.

    The way I see it.


    Average AGE set ~$4500


    Average ASE set ~$200


    Botttom Line, most all U.S. coin buyers can now buy a "numismatic-clone" copy of the popular gold set.

    These babies are going to fly off the shelf specifically because of the historical reverse proof included in the set.

    Christmas season, mint sold out, reverse proof.....what's not to like???


    Lots of upside from here IMHO.......eBay ASE hysteria on turbocharge!!










  • relicsncoinsrelicsncoins Posts: 8,271 ✭✭✭✭✭
    I just saw a raw set sell for a tad over $230 tonight on Ebay. Not earth shattering, but considering the mint just sold out a couple of days ago, they are already going for more that 2X the issue price. I originally ordered 1 set on 9/1 and it has not arrived yet, but is in the in stock and reserved category. I ordered 2 additional sets around 9/20 and they still say back ordered. I wish I would've just bit the bullet and ordered 10 sets originally. They appear to be a no lose situation.

  • If my memory is somewhat on, I remember a bunch of forum members claiming to cancel their orders for all anniversary related sets due to the 2 coin sets being sold as individual coins. I wonder how many really did and if they now regret it?
  • Type2Type2 Posts: 13,985 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Bear, I am with you on this one. how can you go south on this one payed 100.00 per set and selling for 200 to 300 hundred and they were not sold out yet, now comes the fun. I have 5 set in for first strike 3 on my desk that just came in today 11/13/06 just miss the cut off, 10 on order and shipping to my shop and payed for all mint packing to be returned 2.00 per item will do just fine. Worth the 100.00 image

    I wished I had family order 10 sets each.

    I just moved to pr69 pcgs rev proofs on ebay tonight for $295 each. 1 coin.

    I am liking it.

    Bought 2 gold sets, sold 1 for enough to make the 70/70/69 set free to me.

    Once again, I like speculation.

    Now If I only had some real money and could have bought 10 age sets.

    While some will take the quick profit,

    I intend to get everything graded

    and put the sets away for a few years.

    we shall then see what will happen. Patience,

    is often the path to the big score.

    I agree to a point. I bought 10 sets and had all 10 graded by PCGS.

    I am selling all except 2 "69" sets and 1 PR70DCAM, and the 69's to go with it.

    I now have those 3 sets for free and 3 more sets to sell.

    Big score has to start off with a little extra funding. I am a new player in this game, and gotta get a bankroll somewhere. I figure starting with a free 70/70 69dcam gold set is good. I ordered 10 silver, got 5 graded fs 20th and I am parting out 4 sets individual pieces. Sold all 4 rev proof 69 for $295 each, will go and sell the other ms 69 and proof 69 for $xxx and keep a ms69, rev pr69, 70dcam set for free. I still have 5 sets unopened while they will not qualify for f/s they still get 20th anniversary if I ever submit them.

    I may also take some of the $$$ and buy a real nice oregon comemm. or re-invest in unopened stes and grade them out.

    Who knows, but I got to start somewhere. I just don't have the funds to pass up some of the quick money for now.

    I wish I could have held them all, but gotta pay the bills.

    My 30 sets will probably go in for grading or remain unopened to decide what to do. I really want the NGC all 70's and will submit a few there but probably end up sending most to PCGS. I may sell one or two but also plan on keeping most of my sets for the long haul. The 20th designation is very important. A 2006 PCGS DCAM 70 regular AGE Proof goes for around $1600, while the same coin in the 20th Anniversary designation goes for $11,000. I would think they would have dropped in price since there are now 100 70 DCAMs out of 1300 submitted in the Anniversary Label. This is also driving the complete 20th Anniversary AGE 70 gold sets at $16,000.00. Hopefully there are a lot of AGE opened sets that can't get the 20th anniversary designations. This is proof, but only relating to this particular set, that the plastic does count contrary what others say on this forum. The 20th anniversary label is protecting the integrity of the AGE sets as well as the ASE sets. Opened sets, while still considered the 20th Annivesary sets, can be manipulated and the coins switched out and may not be the original coins released in the set from the mint. Will this play a factor in the value of these sets? Only time will tell. These 70 sets could drop in value but who knows. But the fact that the AGE gold sold out in 24 hours just shows the demand for them. Will this carry over to the ASE sets. I think it will now that they are sold out too.

    Unopened boxes are always better, but and opened AGE is still good. The reason is, what would the point of switching coins be ???

    Not as applied to 2006 silver eagles. If you take them out of context and broaden the statement, then yes. As they meant it, no.

  • Take it out of context and broaden it how? Honestly, I don't know - is PCGS not giving out an MS70 grade on the 2006 MS Eagles as a matter of policy? Regardless?

    I know Im clueles as to why the MS69s are going so high. It looks like one seller is the one reaping the benefits. I wish I had more MS69s to sell to the masses.
