The order I placed on the last day at 4:47 p.m. has shipped. So that should be just about all of them.
My set arrived today and it looks very good. Anybody know what the total mintage was for the set? Mike
281,310...however, this figure will almost certainly be going down at some point, to account for cancellations and returns.
Numbers adjusted on these? http://mintnewsblog.com/2013/09/major-reduction-for-2013-west-point-silver-eagle-set-sales/
I haven't had a chance (or the interest) to look into it. I'm going to keep the set and call the Mint to make sure I'm not on a subscription list. It really is a beautiful set. Mike
Like I mentioned Mike, you wouldn't be disappointed. Even if you didn't want it, you could easily flip it for $20-40 more. If you collect Eagles, then this is a must have set.
Shew, if it was me I would definitely be looking into it. That's like hitting the mint lotto, only thing better would've been if they sent you a Reverse Gold Buffalo mistakenly. I might would even have to play some real lottery tickets with combinations of my us mint order number. (The number in the packaging since you didn't order them) All I can say is wow if that really just turned up at your door out of the blue like that.
I'll go back and check my credit card bills. I'm very impressed by this set. I'll put them under the microscope soon.
I just got mine today! I kicked myself so hard for originally canceling my order. Today I happened to see them at a coin show and thought to myself that I was tired of kicking myself so I pulled the trigger and bought them! Actually I traded a few 2013 eagles for them. I can pick up 2013 eagles any day.
I did a trade so no cash came out of my pocket. I traded 7 American eagles for the set. I've got plenty of American Silver Eagles and kicked myself back in 2011 when I didn't buy the special edition set. I wasn't going to start kicking myself over not getting this set.
I absolutely love the ASE's. Have quite a few already. Really need to go out and complete the collection to date. That is an amazing looking coin!
