Thanks To be honest I was underwhelmed by how light the 1/10 and 1/12 ounce coins felt in hand The half has some weight to it but if I hadn't handled a 1 ounce gold eagle I probably would not have considered buying into these Quote:

i acquired one of each-- all 3-- back in 2016/17 and I still have them. very happy that I did, though I wish I would have bought 2 of each. yes, it was worth it. they're beautiful and now are much pricier & much more valuable.
You probably paid half of what I paid? Even at the current prices I think they are worth the cost I love all 3 of the designs and now I have crisp clean versions of each Edited by Boba Debt

Looking back, The 100Th Anniversary Gold coins Were/Are Stunning - Checking back I can Not locate the Original from the Mint price of the Mercury dime, ? However, These are the release prices from 2016, From the U S Mint: The 2016- West Point Gold 1/2 oz Walking Liberty from the Mint 11/16 - $ 869.00 The 2016 - West Point Gold 1/4 oz Standing Liberty from the Mint 9/16 - $ 489.00. The price of Gold in 2016 Was $1,078.52 per oz in January-2016. That price fluctuated from the Above price up to $1,152.00 in December of the same year. The price of Gold as I write This, $ 4,613.40 per Oz. |

The 2016-W Mercury dime Centennial Gold Coin was originally released by the U.S. Mint on April 21, 2016, for $205. It is a 1/10th-ounce, 24-karat gold coin with a limited mintage of 125,000, which sold out in 45 minutes due to high demand Edited by Gilly

I missed out on the 1/10 oz Mercury, and still haven't picked one up. I was able to get the other two from the mint at the time. I need to put the 1/20th back on my radar now! Amazing idea for the set display too!

This set has me hooked on gold, and now I can't wait to get the 2026 Enhanced UC Eagle. Oh man, same here! Last year was just the half ounce, the 25th anniversary Sac dollar. It just struck me as such a cool idea. The "golden dollar" in real gold. I've never been the real big gold collector, just the ones in my sets with ASEs, then decided I needed all 3 of the 20th Anniversary sets. The reverse proof buffalo and the Ultra High Relief St Gaudens. I think I'd really be torn between this years St Gaudens "Best of The Mint" and the EU, except for the fact that I have the UHR. The Mint can't top that UHR, I don't care what they do now. Having the only reverse proof gold eagle and now the EU, it's going to be really special. I was excited when the release was a month away and not we're actually in the month of May! |

Boba, these are great coins in nice packaging (I prefer OGP) That is not the OGP. The coins were sold individually at staggered time intervals and never sold in a set of 3. |

i went to APMEX and had a look at what they are selling those gold commemoratives for now. wow... I acquired all 3-- half, quarter & tenth oz.-- for below the current selling price of just the quarter oz. coin... they're selling the tenth oz. coin for $900! the cost of those coins has at least tripled after 10 years. |

I just looked. I bought mine in between 2022 and 2023. I was looking only for PCGS 70s. Total cost was $2710. At the time I definitely overpaid on the half buying it at a local shop but I don't mind giving those guys a few extra bucks. I want to make sure they stay in business. After I bought them I used ebay to get the OGP as well for each of them. Probably paid 10 a piece at the time. |
