Just A Barometer For The 1995-W ASE- Proof Silver Dollar?

" This is my next purchase. I picked up the 2019-S last week."

Very Sweet Purchase. Was the 2019-S All You wanted, Condition wise, Being You did Not receive the 2019-S from the U S Mint originally ?

The 2019-S Enhanced Reverse Proof's Mintage is 29,909, the difference between the Two is Less than 100 , actually 93.


The 1995-W ASE Proof is one of the Keys, with a mintage of 30,102.
( mintage wise Another takes the Forefront ), That's Another Topic. Being Gold Today's Over 2,200 Per Ounce, Silver At 24.96 Per Ounce, The prices are Not going to Hold Here . Best Wishes, Mike.

I want to buy another 95-W set...

Thanks Celtic......

John, Prices going Up!!!!

I'm not sure what you're trying to say here, but the way I'm interpreting it, is you think the prices on the collectible ASEs, the 95W or 19S ERP, are somehow linked to the price of the metal?

EDIT for collectors gold coins, I would agree, they will fluctuate on the price of gold (along with a premium that gradually fluctuates, some go up, some come down). But the collectors ASEs, not really a factor, the premium being sky high on these.

Checked out the 1995-West Point 10TH Anniversary Gold, Silver Sets on the Bay Today.

Wanted to note an Updated Gold Today is @ $2,666.00 per oz.
Silver is @ $ 29.72 per ounce.

The American Eagle 10TH Anniversary Set Proof Bullion Coins are Obviously going to rise up in value when Gold prices rise also. My question is to those that have This original packaged set, Do you grade or have the ability to Know what You Have in hand. Looking at the sets coins are you at ease viewing and confident in grading your coins?

In looking at the sets members, I am Very confident, After Another exciting close examination, My 1995-West Point ASE is Flawless, Which brings me to the Mind Blowing topic of The going prices of the 1995-W Proof ASE's graded @ PR-70 bring Today.

I see the Bay has the Set going for about $8,500- $9,000 Raw.
I see Graded sets PR-70 in slabs asking $15,000.

One 95-W- ICG PR-70 DCAM example selling for $8,495.00 ?
Why not go for a PR-70 at that price? Would anyone consider buying a 1995-W ASE graded by ICG , Break it out and seek an OGP and Fill that Set up, Starting with a " perfect " coin, ?

My how this sets mintage of 30,102 is getting harder to locate an example of a Complete untouched OGP .

Morning Capt,

Your question is a Real concern for Most who collect, IMO, The decision is clearly up to the collecting individual , If I were asked that question it would be a simple answer, Collecting All Original Packaging, I would keep ALL Original.

Once a collector takes the step of Slabbing the 1995-W, One must assume certain things, One, The 1995-W will Not be in its Original packed package. ( some could care less ). Its Gone, No More All Original. It Could be returned into the wild with some finess, Just not my style.

If your concerned with the Turn over for the Most obtainable $$$, I have seen Value handed to Some who have Certain coinage " Graded " Have and Are commanding Very High values.
One must consider All aspects of Your goals, On One hand having the Coins graded Brings a certain calmness, a Certain assurance, I can see Why people go the graded route for Monetary reasons.

One can Also keep the 1995-W in it's All Original package for the Collector that Next is the Ward for Your Treasures...

Maybe some day the Younger Collectors Will want to see All Original sets, Once gone, They are Gone.......

It is a Very strong reason to go the grading path, I am Not one of them, I know how I want to proceed, I see differing paths for Collectors, Choose what You want, and Go for It......

My Apologies ,

to the Staff....
