2011 25th Anniversary Silver Eagle Set

I usually do not buy ASEs but I might have to get at least one of these just to sell, any idea what a set will sell for once the mint runs out? How long term of an investment will this take, can you double your money in just a couple months or will it take six months or longer to sell out and raise quickly?

I'm pretty sure there's like 5 pages of discussion about this on THIS VERY post
Guess's from $250 to $400.

 

I remember the 2001 Buffalo (proof & unc) sets were marked sold out in 3 to 7 days by the mint. My order went through the first day :thumb:

I think there is a little to much hype. the us mint lowered there prices on ASE'S. I hope you all dont get stuck with a bunch of sets that can't turn a profit. I see people losing money on the 2011 silver eagle proof's on ebay. even though I shouldn't I will buy 1 . but NOT 10. nobody is going to pay $1000 for the set. maybe a premium for the graded reverse and UNC. S. .

but then again I'M not much of a modern collector. I like old rare coins. especially old gold coins.

ASE'S are a little to flashy for me. thats just my opinion !

 

Everyone is entitled to their opinion - welcome to Cointalk by the way!

I think $1000 is a bit high for an ungraded set although I bet the first few to sell on Ebay get close to it. I think once they sell out $500-$600 for raw sets will be the going rate and for a set of 70's I think $1000+ depending on how many get handed the grade! ASE series is probably the most popular one the mint does, so buy 1 or buy 10, either way I don't think you will lose money.

 

Do what I do......buy and sell the moderns then buy and keep a classic with your profits......:w8v4:

 

I'm one of the guys who was late to the dance on these. I kept putting off ordering because of the high allowable mintage (500,000 across all product offerings). Don't keep the lady waiting. She'll ditch ya for someone else.......

American Eagle 25[SUP]th[/SUP] Anniversary Silver Coin Set

 

I made an offer of $1.00

The seller is still considering.

 

Wonder if the Mint will reduce the order limit or set a crazy high price with all the hype/speculation going on here?

 

Guess he will feel rather silly IF he can't get thru and get 5 sets...

 

so just to clarify- this set will have an Eagle with an "s" mint mark which will have a 100,000 mintage and a reverse proof that will have a 100,000 mintage - the other 3 coins will have large mintages and will be nothing special, am I getting this? If that is correct those 2 coins with the 100,000 mintages will probably be pretty valuable because there are just a ton of silver eagle collectors.

 

if I understand this correctly there will be 2 SAE's with a 100,000 mintage. If that is true I'd guess that they would be worth a lot- there are a lot of SAE collectors out there.

 

that is the gamble as I see it...
and a pretty low risk/ high reward one at that!

 

Well, I got the seller's response tonight:

"seriously get a life!!! If you have nothing better to do than make low ball offers I feel sorry for you. Take your offers elsewhere Good day"

 

I usually ignore those offers. Guess the seller has no better offers to respond to.

 

Heh, I sent him an offer for $5

 

LOL. If he responded to your "low ball" offer, he's the one who needs to get a life..........

 

Hey! Look what's finally on the "upcoming products" listing at the US Mint........


http://catalog.usmint.gov/webapp/wc...ctId=16626&langId=-1&parent_category_rn=10111

Ordering limit of 5 for the first week of the offering........

 

Hmm, very strange, doesn't say anything about limited to 100,000 sets.
