    Well, there is only 75,000 minted which is very low. That one is graded a PF70 Ultra Cameo by NGC so it carries a nice premium. The mint sold them for 83 bucks a while ago and not many people were able to get one. (Lots of resellers and the site kept crashing.) I was luckily able to get one after about an hour of trying on many different devices.

    They're usually about $600 at GC for the PCGS and less for the NGC.

    Great coin to have if you served in WWII, other than that it's not truly a low mintage coin at all. Sure, it's low mintage to some coins but not all. Unfortunately, I completely forgot about the sale so you snooze you lose.

    Optimism? Greed? Insanity?

    Those words come to mind, but that's just how my mind works, when it thinks about a $1K ASE. There's no such thing as an ASE worth that much, to me personally. In fact, other than my hypothetically being willing to pay a slight premium for proofs, they're all just bullion to me. But of course that's just me. This kinda overhyped modern stuff simply isn't my cuppa tea.

    Agreed. Same way I feel about four figure Franklin’s.

    Perhaps because it has the "brown" label. I don't know what that means, but it must be important to someone. Plus, the coin pictured is in a "sample" holder. What does that mean? I wouldn't touch it.

    Their current label generation

    It's not in a sample holder. It's a stock photo that some big firms change the cert number to something like that

    The Mint should upgrade their server to minimize the congestion when new product is offered. I gave up several years ago after repeated problems while trying to place an order.

    They only have huge numbers a hand full of times a year. It would be fiscally irresponsible to build a system that approaches capacity a couple hours a year

    Not too many of those folks still around. About the youngest you could be and still have served during WWII is 95 years old. My father was 16 when the war ended and he's 92 now. If you were in at the start in 1941 you would be about 98 now.

    Agreed, I've said that a few times myself.
