I just received my Evening Grosbeak today. I have all the birds from 2007 to 2012. The Red-breasted Nuthatch I have two.

You are lucky, I have all birds too, but I got most of them from second market.

You will have to wait until the next 2 coins come out for the latest 2 to gain much value unless they have low COA's there are still some available at the mint so until they are sold out there is no profit to be made. I am sitting on about 100 different bird coins right now and still stockpiling more.

Rose breasted grosbeak is now sold out at the mint. The Evening grosbeak is sitting around 93% sold now. New one should be arriving in the next couple months I would guess.

Quote: I have a tough time selling or trading the latest 2 coins No doubt, nearly all big dealers have them on sales for below 25$ each around Christmas. The market for these coins will be quiet for a long time.... In fact CA is having the Rose-Breasted Grosbeak on sales for 25.75$ now, and they have plenty in stock. http://colonialacres.com/products.p...w=40264&ref=It is a buyer's market now.

Can't expect the last four to hit $200 yet just wait a year or two they will be up there. I recently unloaded a cardinal and goldfinch together for over $500
