@yup it is either govmint or ebay they are exclusive. But govmint ain't all that bad, they once had a deal on the 2015 bullion ones they said would be Gem BU for spot ($15 and some change at the time) and so I ordered the limit of 5 and wouldn't you know it they sent me 5 MS69s signed by Mercanti! I was super excited about getting those at spot. Anyways I collect both the Bullion and non HR proofs so that one day I will order a custom album and have each years coins! That will look epic I think. No HR for me though way too pricey especially since they can't go in an album

@Yup, the email said they would be slabbed as GEM BU with Mercanti's signature limit of 5 for spot price (probably had to get rid of the 2015's as they weren't near as popular as 2014) it was a very pleasant surprise! This coin (along with pulled from circulation Kennedy halves) is the only one I want a complete bullion/proof date set of in an album. :)

MCM also has the 2016 autographed NGC 70's & 69's available, the NGC Gem BU's appear to be sold out by them.

Can't wait for the non-HR proofs! I am sure this coin will be beautiful like Commems' above :D

Anyone else hear anything about the 2016 non-HR proofs for this yet? Really late compared to prior years...

The non-HR silver coins were released August 2nd if I remember correctly. Available for order in the US from GovMint.
I pre-ordered mine at the end of July - still waiting for delivery, however.

Received my standard relief proof coin today - it looks fabulous! Terrific strike, mark-free fields, great cameo contrast - truly a terrific coin.
I'll try to post images at some point over the weekend.

These are some of my favorite coins in my collection.
I have the 2014, 2015, and 2016 bullion, HR proof and standard proofs.
I also just picked up the 2016 1/10 oz gold Wedge Tailed eagle too.
I wish I could afford the 1 oz gold HR in any year, maybe when I win the lottery.

I have been in the process of a complete series of these for two years. The goal is a true perfect set, which I began in PCGS for a registry set. But as I quickly noticed, some dates/finishes are tough to come by so I now include NGC. Thus far I have all of the MS70 from 2014 through 2020, The high relief PF70 from 2014 through 2019 and the 2014/2015 in low relief PF70. Once completed I'll be going for a set in Gold. As mentioned, these are simply stunning by design which I prefer them to the American counterpart.
