2013 West Point ASE set

I should hedge my bets on what I just wrote after seeing the PCGS population report. I just saw that PCGS 70s are outnumbering 69s at a rate of almost 3-to-1 for both the reverse proof and enhanced uncirculated. That is with 2,175 sets graded.

So maybe getting a set of 70s for $150 or not too much more than that won't be out of the question if that rate holds.

It will be interesting to see if the ratio of 70s to 69s reduces from 3/1 to 2/1 or even to 1/1 as they start to grade the "little guy's" coins.

Based on these results, the 69's should be rarer than the 70's. It may be time to scratch a few of them By the way, I was just informed that my delivery has moved back until September and I ordered late on day 1. What is going on at the mint? With silver at such low prices, they should be dying to get these things out a significant premium.

 

Mine's not clickable....which is wierd. It's just plain text.

 

That is weird. I've never encountered that.......all of my trackers have always been clickable. Curiouser and curiouser........

 

I went to the PCGS pop reports and I couldn't find the statistics, so you're saying they've graded about 1400 70's and 700 69's so far? Is this a close enough estimate?

I checked NGC's website and there is not pop report yet.

With all the pre-sales of these going on, it might shock you to know that the ebay auctioned, in hand, raw sets are out-performing the 69's pretty easily.

 

Well...under that scenario I would be screwed!

 

If silver stays below $20/Oz for an extended period (2+ years), I'm rather certain you'll see prices for common MS70/PF70 ASEs drop below current prices. You reach a point where everyone that wants one, has one...then they start looking at "bang-for-the-buck".

If they can get five (5) ounces of silver (perhaps a new "puck" from the Mint) for the same $100 as the "common PF70 ASE"...Idk, they might go for the puck...(I would).

 

Perhaps the numbers in their database are lagging a bit. I wouldn't want to post too quickly and pull the rug out from under my best customers.

 

my 5/9/13 order @12:48 shipped today plus I ordered a NGC ER Retro set, I really like the look of the black inserts

 

The Mint Gods must hate me. Still "In stock and reserved" with no cancel box. My order was put in on first day at 12:10.

 

The mint sent me an e-mail today saying that my order is back ordered until August. Hopefully, when I do receive my set, it will not be a returned item from someone else. I am glad I rushed to order on the second day, shame on me for not ordering on the first day.

 

I see only the reverse proof number on the PCGS website. I got the other numbers from screen shots posted on another forum.

Reverse Proof:
69 - 671
70 - 1503

Enhanced Uncirculated:
69 - 586
70 - 1589

I think they got to them by searching with a certification number from coins on ebay.

 

Finally! SHIPPED

 

My tracking is finally showing up...delivery date shows 7/5

 

well I ordered 2 sets. one on May 12 and again on the last day of sales. Both have a ship date of 9/17. Man alive that seems like forever!

 

I had fun watching HSN guy last night. That guy can sell! He had me convinced that $399 was a good price for a pair of ANACS 70s and four free grading submissions at ANACS. (Then I remembered that I ordered 20 of them at $139.95. What a deal!)

The ANACS 70 sets sold out very quickly and the ANACS 69 enhanced uncirculateds are also showing as sold out on the HSN website today. They were selling those individually for $199 last night.

 

Patience will pay in the long term

 

Finally shipped today, hope to have my hands on in a few days
:hail:

 

I have to say that I'm kind of sad that we didn't get a video unveiling from YoYospin for this set....oh well, thanks for the previous videos...I liked them
