ASE reverse proof question

Is anyone else hoarding them like me?
I've noticed that the Teletrade results are a bit above what one can find on the internet. IMHO a good sign. I snagged a bunch of NGC 69 ones for $175 at NFC . that is about 50 dollars cheaper that the latest won lots on teletrade. The PCGS graded ones are elusive at a resonable price. My mini hoard is now at 25 graded reverse proofs plus my 10 ungraded sets from the mint. I've funded my spree with profits from the AGE anniversary set. God bless the mint for that set!!
This is the first time I have collected so many of the same coin. And I am having fun doing it too! Guess I'm entering Level II of coin maddness.
Sadly the free money from the mint has run out and I am sad
Now I wil hide my gems away in a dark vault for the next decade and ,with a sly grin ,wring my hands with joy at my dirty little secret. Yep I'm definitly Level II coin crazy.

Got Milk???
Not yet!!!
OREO COOKIES. THEY GO WELL WITH MILK SPOTS.

Thanks for the nightmare.
<< <i>THATS WHY I ALWAYS KEEP A LARGE SUPPLY OF
OREO COOKIES. THEY GO WELL WITH MILK SPOTS.
you might change your thinking. It appears to be much better
odds of winning then the state lottery.

<< <i>I'm not going to get my graded. I'm going to keep my set raw like all my other buillion coins. It makes no sense whatsoever to grade bulllion coins. Can't stand the idea of putting a beautifully struck precious metal in a plastic slab with some inflated number on it making it have premium value over the actual precious metal. Leave slabbing for real coins and leave the buillion alone. >>
Except that if it really was just a bullion coin, you wouldn't have paid $100 for 3 ounces of silver with silver less than $15 an ounce.
It's a good bet they'll perform in price over time IMO. I've collected silver eagles since they came out in 86. They were so incredible (especially at around $ 6.00 an oz.) I gave the 86's to my kids when they lost their first teeth.
But there is definitely something intoxicating about the reverse proofs. Enjoy the sets!
Happy Collecting!
Anyone have any thoughts???
I hope they wait a few years.....perhaps for the 25th anniversary.
<< <i>Coinhog... all ASE's do not get milkspots... I have slabbed and raw... NONE have developed milk spots. I have no idea why.. however.. I do store them in my gunsafe..
Maybe all those bullets scare them away.

Could be the humidity control
