Just wanted to share my favorite ASE with everyone. Very hard to photograph so I added a video to show the colors. Not sure why I couldn’t embed it. Feel free to share yours! https://youtube.com/shorts/s4eUgF1tck4?feature=share
It was actually a gift that was already graded. My wife's cousin knew she was dying and gave it to me.
Only recently started collecting ASE's. Here's my first. Wow, you really do see a difference with the laser etching, don't you. edit: pared down the photos - no need to take up so much room.
Ya know, when they decided to use the beautiful Weinman Walking Liberty design, I was excited. It was bringing back, what was in my mind, an exceptional design of the past, but now, I think the ASE has ruined that for me. I seen it everywhere and when looking for Walker's in Auctions, I spend more time trying to find out if it is a ASE or Walking Liberty. Guess I'm just stuck in the past. Still a beautiful design, without a doubt.
Anything Silver in a slab scares me ! Milk spots can go for years with out showing there ugly heads, I see many people on the bay trying to sell coins in 70 holders with the milk spots for a substantially less price.
Heavy cameo is right..!! Very lovely look, cool older holder, and a great first-year coin. By the way, youtube SHORTS can't be embedded, only complete YouTube videos can. Stupid, but I assume it is more of an issue with the forum-software than it is with youtube shorts.
Thank you! It’s also my birth year, so I had to have it. Thank you also for explaining the YouTube shorts issue. I’m not sure what I did to make it a YouTube short vs regular video, but I’ll try to pay attention to that next time.
