    Is that something to the Mothman Prophesies?

    The 69 sets are what is sold at close to mint release price, they usually make some money on the 70 sets.

    GoldMart is also pre-selling the PCGS First Strike Label and a PCGS Special West Point Label RP/MS 70 ~ 2 coin sets at $349.99 ! I think that I might try to buy a set or two with the NGC retro label in the RP/MS 69 grade.

    Does anyone think that the burnished 2013-W ASE released today might be a more cost-effective alternative at $48.95? Discuss amongst yourselves ... I haven't really ordered much Mint stuff lately.

    Best Regards, :hail:

    I have 2 subscriptions - 2 proof and 2 BU ASE's each year. Yeah, the price hurts a bit but this way I don't have to think about it - they just come.

    Everyone has their own reason for buying. I just want an original issue of this new finish. I'm not concerned even if the new finish becomes a standard production feature from this day forward, nor how many are eventually offered for sale.

    Regarding the above quote, what qualifies for Early Releases for NGC?

    They receive it within 30 days of it's physical release to the public. They will accept unopened mint packages showing the shipping date as being within the 30 day window as well.

    7 days left will it beat out 2012? Might be close.

    Going to be close, won't really know for a few months till they release the final numbers.

    Although if it gets over 260k I think we could fairly safely say it will be a higher mintage. If it ends between 230-250 or so we won't really know till the final numbers come out.

    I feel like there will be less cancellations this year than last year but that is just my gut feeling.

    The number got a pretty good bump on the last day of sale on last years set. I'm guessing the counter on the mint website will hit 300,000 and then when the final numbers are revised a few months later will settle around 275,000.
