Can I assume from all the pages here, that people not specially care about this coin design and the reason of commemoration (no reason actually), but purchased it cause it MC Exclusive and has limited mintage?

That just about sums it.

I purchased it because I like the traditional design, the gold plating looks great, and it comes with a nice display box.
Like others, I am scaling back on what I purchase, so the fact that it may at least hold its value is a very appealing factor but not the only one.
If this MC exclusive was the Pysanka coin I would have passed as it doesn't fit in to my narrowed focus.

Agree with @canuck1us...I like the traditional design and gold plating. Going to be framing them with their original proof coin counterparts.

Quote: Agree with @canuck1us...I like the traditional design Will agree as well. Just for this coin it isn't the first replication. That's why I even didn't try to get it. Quote: Going to be framing them with their original proof coin counterparts Do you have 1917 Proof Half Dollar, or you referring to 1908-1998 Proof Half or circulation 1917 ?

I think there's a lot of others just like you. But notice how MC membership can cause people to spend their money on something they wouldn't ordinarily be interested in, only because others can't buy it?

Just received my coin, and it is very good looking coin. It fits in perfectly with the voyageur and the library.

Amazing pictures and nice looking set all together! The last picture greater in its "wow" effect than actual in hand observation.
Thank you for sharing.

Any idea what the 1935-2015 dollar has been going for on the re-sale market?

The voyageur is averaging between $800-900 on the secondary market. Issue price was $189.95.
