2013 West Point ASE set

I placed my order a few hours ago. I almost forgot about it!

So is PCGS the way to go? I have like 0 experience buying slabbed coins. I have a set from the Mint coming, but I do want to buy a slabbed set.

 

For modern US coins, PCGS always brings a premium over NGC on the secondary market, first strike always brings a premium over non-first strike, and 69's are considered by many to be culls/rejects.

 

Thanks for that info. And within PCGS, as far as all of the different labels, is that all just personal preference?

Historically, same year/mm silver eagles in a PCGS first strike PR70 holder will sell for about the same $'s on the secondary market (eBay), regardless of the label.

 

69's are also considered by many collectors to be no different than 70's.

 

I have also heard this. Most avg collectors can not tell the difference

 

Sometimes one can tell the difference, other times not - it's like the grader was having a bad day.

 

Im looking at the 2011 sets, too. $1400 for the 70 and $750 for the 69s, i just cant justify THAT much of a premium.

All Silver Town PCGS FS PR70's have been sold out, in just a few hours. Hype or not, somebody likes them...

 

Placed my order this morning! :thumb: Now I just have to wait a few months...

 

For those of you who have ordered this set what is your ship date as of now?

 

2 units backordered. Expected to ship on 06/17/2013

 

Ordered mine today. I would guess the ship date ia late september

 

6/17........blast graded coins.

 

Those price will look inexpensive in a few years.

 

Way to optimistic............

 

I'm really surprised that this set didn't blow away the 2012-S set of last year. I was thinking at least 50k more, and thought realistically it'd be 400k sets.

 

Time will tell. Final numbers in a few weeks...........

 

Mine is showing as a ship date of 9/30/13 and I believe I placed the order on 5/12?
