Why have my ASE doubled in value?????

I bought my ASE proofs for $45 a piece on the secondary market less than 6 months ago, and now I see places like Apmex selling them for $90+shipping. But I keep hearing about that pesky U.S. mint stamped off like over 700,000 of the suckers. Is it just hype and the craziness of the mint who temporarily stopped making the 09's?

Would I be better off selling my ASE's and buying more Lincolns, because if my hype theory is correct, then my ASE's will plummet in value here soon?


Would anyone please shed some light on this issue.........

They haven't doubled in value, APMEX is simply doing a promotion and looking for suckers.

 

Well if you bought for investment and return, then sell, if not enjoy the ASE's for what they are and see if you still don't get your money's worth of pleasure in collecting the series.

 

I agree. They are looking for people who think the US MINTS stoppage of production of ASE because of lack of planchets will excalate the price of these and regular business strikes.

IF they can move enough of them at the price, which is a possibilty they move the market price on these - It will be interesting to watch.

As far as I know the Proof 09 is on long hold ... anyone heard different ??

 

I agree with just a bunch of hype. The Mint will be producing this year it will just be later in the year.

 

Try and sell the ASE Proofs. Try and get $45 let alone 95$. For a Proof $45.00 is usually the upper limit on e-bay and a dealer will give you much less.(unless you have a 95 W ASE Proof)

 

2008 is not really a key proof ASE year. Prices may drop after a while.

 

Remember when the 2006 ASE 3-pc set was maxing out at $500+ per set?
They have dropped quite a bit.....

 

Crap, now I need to bring the hype up as much as possible.:goofer:


:loud:EVERYBODY SPREAD THE WORD, ASE PROOFS SELL FOR UHR PRICE, LAST OF ITS KIND, BUY EM' BEFORE THE ARE ALL MELTED DOWN BY THE GOVERNMENT AND HOARD THEM FOR LONG TERM.

By the way I no have the cheapest ASE's on earth at $90 a piece. get em' from me while you can.

 

I actually sold about 15 sets at $700 per set before the bottom fell out....lol.

 

Saturday for the common dates I paid $28 each

Saturday for the common dates I paid $28 each and sold them for $32 and was glad to get rid of them.

 

You bought 2008 ASE proofs? for $28 a piece?

 

I did not get an 08 proof, I am waiting for prices to go down (I hope that they do).

 

You bought 2008 ASE proofs? for $28 a piece?

No Im sorry, the ones I bought and sold were an 03 & 04.
Sorry I guess I didn't read all the thread - I do that often.
My bad.

 

Indeed they have.
