Message:: [QUOTE="krispy, post: 731693, member: 19065"]I love the ASE coin design and think it should stay as is, but it will certainly come to an end some day, if not this year, but I have also written to my state senators airing my complaints and have my 2010 subscription set up for potential 2010 ASEs. I don't want to see a fractional ASE as this just seems redundant (and derivative to the problem at hand) and too late into this series to start that idea. If they wanted fractional silver ASE coins then they should have been producing them like the AGE fractionals have been available all along. In order to prevent the total loss of this and other coin series, just because we lost the 2009 and few did too little and perhaps protested too late (like me), we should all continue writing in support of the 2010s and urging the Mint to produce the 2010 Proof coins and beyond, even if only in minimum mintages (and why not?). How can they claim that a limited proof mintage (perhaps 50,000 or less) could even begin to threaten the "bullion demand" when being compared to a figure like +24 million unc ounces? If this is the Mint's weak excuse for their way to go about changing the program to a new design or different coin, I don't buy it. How will collectors recall 'The Moy era'... like so many coins series as Joe pointed out for us, one day Moy will quitely vacate his office when his tenure is up and he will simply be gone.[/QUOTE]
