<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 1462600, member: 19065&quot;]A few things to consider with these examples is the amount of these available for sale and the lack of demand for them in the aftermarket suppresses their resale value. Add to that enormous mintages of coins of little intrinsic value and not enough demand for the size of the market collecting such products or the increasing product offerings from the Mint diverting collectors attention away from some of the classic products. Remember in the early 90s, the Mint started selling Silver Proof sets in addition to the clad proof sets, that put pressure on both collector interest and the likelihood of the clad sets still commanding interests and collector demand for them later on. </p><p><br /></p><p>Now, the 2012 ASE 2-coin 75th Anniversary series may have a somewhat high mintage that&#039;s not limited. It remains to be seen how the mintage will impact future value. The intrinsic value for the sets can help maintain their value so long as silver remains high. There are quite a number of collectors of the ASE coins and if we look at the value of other past years proof and RP ASEs we don&#039;t see them selling for less on the secondary market. There are plenty of collectors setting back waiting to order the 75th coins or those who are unable to buy these coins right now who may want them later when orders are no longer being taken. This is a one time product that is issued to represent the anniversary of the SF mint, incidentally where the first 1986 proof ASE&#039;s were struck.</p><p><br /></p><p>The comparison by member <i>ratio </i>was that other mint products are selling for less and so will these, but compared to other numismatic eagle coins, that would not seem to be a likely outcome that these 2012 2-coin set eagles will necessarily end up that way.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
