What is your case of 2006-W 20th Anniversary Silver Eagles worth??

GoldbullyGoldbully Posts: 18,500 ✭✭✭✭✭
I just did the math on my 30 PCGS graded 2006-W ASE's.

I paid the Mint $1000 for that wonderful box(10 sets of three 20th Anniversary ASE's).

I paid PCGS $466 for grading fees, return shipping, and the 20th Anniversary designation.

Shipping and handling from the Mint and shipping to PCGS was ~$50.

Using current PCGS pricing, the retail value of my Mint case is $7635(2 of the RP's were PR70, big help)

In summary, because of this great forum's advice and guidance, I was able to take $1500 and turn it into $7k in just a few months.

That was one of my greatest investments ever!!!

Anyone else do the math on their wonderful box of 2006-W 20th Anniversary Silver Eagles???? image

    Just think what your profit margin would have been if you made 2 UNC 2006-W MS-70 FS 20th Anni

    We had 43 sets, with 6 sets of NGC 70, the rest NGC 69, we sold to a dealer before the drop at 1800.00 for the 70's and 550.00 for the 69's, total investment 4300.00 + grade fees of about 1700.00
    = 6000.00. total return 10,800.00 + 20,350.00 = $31,150.00.......................it was perfect ! image

    No I have not sold them, they are in my SDB...probably acquiring milk spots. image

    SNMAN, you would bring up the FS thing.

    I cannot complain, as I believe I purchased the case just a couple days(or less) before they were gone. image

    FS?? First Strike?? Why is it that the label adds so much value? The coin and the condition are the important part. I would not pay a premium for a pretty label.

    Lets see... I had to send 14 of them back to PCGS for spot review (which was on 8/24/2007 and still no word on results).

    Of those, I sent in one PR70DCAM, two PR70 Reverse proofs, 5 PR69DCAM's, and 6 MS69's. They WERE worth about 7k, now probably $1000 in 66-67 holders. Easy come easy go I suppose.

    About $3,000+ difference in price. Pop. of only 21, last time I checked.....

    My sets are waiting it out a while longer. Only one had a spot and I sold it cheap. They are the king ASE keys

    I bought 10 sets from the mint and 4 more boxes of 10 from a 3rd party for $1900-$2400 each. NGC gave me 19 RP70's, 17 MS70's, and 27 PF 70's soooo 17 complete MS/RP/PF 70's and all the rest 69's. I haven't done the math lately but I think I did well. It will be interesting to see what the prices do when the 25th Anniversary set comes out.

    i had 30 sets and had them sent in

    one MS70, 4 RP70's and (only) one?? 70DCAM

    that one MS70 saved may tush as I sold it right away or almost right away. no regrets

    i paid about double the mint price off of ebay

    in retro i might have been better off just selling the cases in late May for 8K each and been done with them..

    I have an unopened box of 10 sets. I'm planning PCGS grading. I will keep all the 70s, and at least two of
    the highest graded of each type. Then sell the rest, on TT.

    Well, I usually have the exact math on these but I feel bad since I just sold 2 of my last 3 sets.

    I had ten sets at one point and sold all but 3. I haven't added the last two sets I sold. I am keeping an 70, 70, 69 set for myself which was worth over $1,200 last I checked. Anyway for the first seven sets I sold, after all fees, I made $3,387 aproximately. On the recent sales, I sold the RP for $240 and the MS69 for $95, so I I am probably over $3,800.

    I was also lucky enough to score 70, 70, 69 Gold Anniversary set which I sold for over 8k, for a profit of a little under 5k. I just had the one set of that but couldn't hold it at those prices.

    I hope I don't look back and regret selling them all image. But I figure there are 250k of these sets and I did keep 2 extra first strike PR69DCAMs. I think those might be interesting later on.

    I wish other issues had gone as well! Percentage-wise you can't beat that set!

    COINBOY,

    Surely you made a couple dollars on this silvery case of joy.

    Looks like others have made major $$$$$$$'s on this special issue.

    I look forward to more forum members coming forward and announcing their profits.

    Going back to the Baltimore show on Saturday for more fun!!!!

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment
