In reply to data dave. Actually, the US Mint started the American Silver Eagle Proof series with the S proof: 1986-S to 1992-S ASE Proofs, 1993-P to 2000-P ASE Proofs, and 2001-W to 2026-W ASE Proofs. In 2012, a 2012-S ASE Proof was produced for the 75th Anniversary San Francisco Mint Set. Then in 2017, the 2017-S ASE Proof was reintroduced on an annual basis along with the regular issue W proof up until this year (2025-S). And now for 2026 with the S proof no more, a 2026-P ASE Proof will be issued along with the W proof.

In reply to Reformed Flipper. What I don't understand is why the W proof sells so many more than the S proof. Considering they started out with the P proof, I don't see why the W is so popular.

Now, how this plays out, when ats gets to about 50,000, on a Saturday or Sunday, some one is going to do a ‘burn down’ projection, and it will be most likely be quite accurate, posted here on Coin News, and that will stir an even more frenzy and that remaining 50,000+ will sell out artificially fast…, okay fine, though you BETTER HOPE there’s a RELOAD…,

You draw your own conclusion regarding planchette availability, I don’t know, and don’t pretend to know, I just right now know there’s 275,000 loaded… for us Commoners,

If there’s a reload, no worries them…, if not, wait around, FAFO!

A few of you have a serious reading comprehension problem, so if you respond to this, I kindly ask you to re-read this posting a few times to understand what I am laying down…, T.H.I.N.K.

I’ll post below the last know mintages for previous years, for reference, I post this shit not for me, though maybe it’ll help someone out…, come 2026, don’t sit around with you’re ‘you know what’ in your hand…, there’s going to be a lot of volatility, some good, some bad…., always a Bull market somewhere, Okay Gentlemen, now you can call me an asshole…, Peace Out, and happy Collecting!

Since we’re being sincere, everything I post is factual, shrouded in some form of humor (which I probably fail at miserably) or speculative, with some underlying basis of fact.., you decide fact from speculative, though I’m not going to wipe your ass like Charmin Cali, sorry Cali, respect and appreciate always, and genuinely enjoy your passion for the hobby, though you do wipe a lot of lazy butts out here that need to think for themselves, IMHO, anyhoo, you’ll make the connection on this here in a moment,

Let’s get down to business, and why ats 275,000 may be an issue –

Well, you better hope there’s more!

26EA is a BIG F’n Deal – Biggest release since 2021, I would argue Bigger,

It’s the Flag Ship Mother Offering of 2026….

200,000 are GONE in 72 hours, I think (do recall, no HHL currently), maybe more….

Hey ECG, Not picking on ya Sir, I remember you from the MNB, you’re good people and totally respect you, there was a lot of east coasters that used to post, especially from VA, I sincerely miss them, guess they followed up on their word (in being done with the mint) or unfortunately, no longer with us.., and their heirs are dealing with their fortune (their collection), as I know/recall some were, or are now, fortune collections, awesome collections,

In reply to E 1. No. but I've seen a huge variety of cards at Target. I used to collect the Star Wars trading card (the first (blue) series). I could never get #52.

In reply to CaliSkier. I have 4-15, 18. I'm still sore about #1 and having it in by basket and being unable to checkout (as experienced by many here too)

In reply to John Q. Coinage. Nice, GEM MINT 10 with an authentic Autograph in Chrome. That's how you do it JQC. I think Vinnie said he was pulling cards at Target too.
