No upgrades for this year.

This year my plans were to upgrade a couple of my American Silver Eagles from MS69 to MS70. The set was 100% complete, with all of the 2008?s added a few months ago and I wanted to try and get into the top 50 sets by the end of the year, but those plans got squashed last week.

Last week I logged in to my account to read some post and found out that the 2008 W with the Reverse of the 2007 had become a required coin for the American Silver Eagle Mint Set. I went straight to my registry set after reading this post and found that the set was now only 97% complete and it was no longer in the top 100 sets.

I was so shocked to see that this eagle was a requirement for my registry set that I didn?t have a clue as to what to do. So I set down and talked to my wife and explained my dilemma. She was very calm and supportive about my problem and told me to buy it, but (the ?but? word always scares me) I would have to give up on some of my upgrades for this year. So I thought about her solution for awhile and made my decision.

The upgrades are out and my new 2008 W Eagle with the Reverse of the 2007 arrived in the mail today. My registry set is back to 100% complete and has moved back into the top 100 sets.

Here is a quick picture; I have placed better pictures in my set.
