    You're all welcome to purchase the ones I won't be buying. The mint has gotten ridiculous with their offerings and absurd with their pricing.

    I do wish those who want them good luck in getting them.

    Sorry, I find reverse Proofs to be ugly.

    The idea behind the Proof coin concept was to test or “prove” that a die was good. The reverse Proof is nothing but a gimmick. The surfaces on those coins have nothing to do coin production except to make something to market to collectors.

    I like reverse proofs although starting to be overdone. This is a good set for this year though. I'll be going for one and hope to get a set. They won't last 10 minutes.

    I like the RPs a lot more than normal proofs. It does take away from the uniqueness a little doing a lot of them but like you said this year makes perfect sense for it. Really I would like to see every product get a RP at least from time to time

    Thats unfortunate, but maybe not the worst idea as its been a heavy month with the gold, ASEs, Morgans/Peace

    How are people who are at work supposed to drop what they are doing at noon on a workday and go to the mint website to order these things? I'm glad I don't collect this stuff as I will still be seeing my 11:40 patient at noon.

    Probably moved to September because of all the 'hate mail' they've been getting lately regarding the ordering process on their site........

    I will try for one; with 125,000 and HHL of 1 isn't bad. This year is getting expensive with all of the new ASE and Morgans.

    I wish the 2021 ASE used the 2021-W $25 1 oz Palladium eagle design instead of the clipped eagle wing design.

    They have someone else who IS available at Noon try to buy them for them.

    I agree I’m not a fan of the cutoff wing . Though I will say I like them better in hand than I thought I would . Meaning the regular w and s proofs

    I gave up on the mint long ago, so NO, I won't pay their prices or the game of trying to buy from them.
