Thread: 2012 ASE Price Yo-Yo

By now we all know how these ASE coin sets tend to fluxuate in price from the first day of shipping (and before) until interest in them begins to fall off. With the unknown mintage final totals and the relatively high cost of this two-coin set, what do you see the price these two-coins sets eventually reaching on Ebay or other auction sites and then where do you see the price settling back to?

Here is my guess. I think the first month or so, the price will hit as much as $350 for the set on Ebay at least and then by the end of the summer maybe early to late fall the price could easily go under a $100 for the set.

Just my 2 cents: I don't see under $100 unless the economy continues to tank and silver stays under $30. I think the only sets you'll see between $100-125 will be pretty picked over, and no chance of PF70s.

I see it spiking at first (as Moen stated) and then settling back down to the $150-$175 level. I don't think any one who buys these will lose money and I also don't think that anyone who buys them to flip is gonna score big.

This set has two exclusive coins not just one so i could see this set being worth more then the 2006 set long term. Short tearm i think this set will slowly rise in value peaking at $300 around the holidays but then dropping to, and holding at $200 $250 for few years. The set will never sell at issue price again.

there is fatigue from the 2011 - I think it will stay steady at about US Mint offering price +-$30

I don't know how widespread this fatigue is considering the mintage was only 100K. For me personally, the only problem I have is the price is about $20 too high; but for two unique coins, I think it'll work itself out in the end.

I think the fatigue refers to much more than the A25 set...5oz ATB pucks, gold spouses, etc.

Starting to go down the same road as the Perth Mint.

I actually get fatigued just flipping through a book on moderns, and seeing all those Olympic game commems. Gotta do some 5oz curls.

If the total volume stays under 200k (only 141,842 sold to date), you may see these rise in value assuming the price of silver doesn't dive any further. It is taking a beating today along with everything else.
