<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnmilton, post: 7030897, member: 101855&quot;]The mint is doing worse than that. The front page story in <i>Coin World </i>this week is that the mint sold thousands of 2021-W Proof Silver Eagles to dealers three days before they were offered to the public. When the &quot;official&quot; date came, there were not enough coins left to satisfy the collector demand. Now, if a collector wants to keep their set complete, they have to buy them from those dealers at a premium.</p><p><br /></p><p>I tried to start an American Silver Eagle collection a couple of times and ended up losing interest. I am now glad that I never got hooked because maintaining the set is nothing but a series of headaches and disappointments given the way the mint has chosen to market these coins. Given what the mint has done, the fun as gone out of them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
