Only time will tell. Price will likely fall, as they usually do. Unless it's another summer moon mask....

so your upper COA number is in the 15000's; so there could be 9,000+ left to be produced.
Anyone else here have higher COA number, more than 15000's ?
Maybe we can get an idea how many of 25,000 coin are coming in Sept!

I think the price will go up, I'm holding onto my pile until the next coin comes out.

There were more than 10000 Nuthatch coins which slowly went up in value. Does anyone know why? There are 25000 dinos minted, but its universal appeal is at least twice as much as the bird series.

There is supposed to be 25000 dinos minted, but it appears about 15000 where released, so about 10000 more coins can be coming in Sept after the fix/delay! I don't think the price will go up when more coins flood the market.
Unless the original 15000 dinos stop to glow then these duds will lose $ and the new coins that hold the glow will shoot up & SHINE in price.

Even better that 1/2 of them may be flawed ...

=> and as always => who knows which version will be considered more valuable:

- the earlier 15,000 flawed-version?

"or"

- the later 10,000 fixed-version?

... huh? ... there is nuthin' like a good ol' coin scandal to make the value even higher, eh?

I don't think a "Glow-In-The-Dark" coin that not glows will have a very high value... even if it's an error coin, what's cool in this coin is the glow feature. And this is the WOW factor for many many people, especially children, who probably received a lot of this coin in gift.

I don't believe that COAs are sequential. That is, COA 100 in not necessarily the 100th coin produced and COA 15,000 is not the 15,000th coin. I believe that the COAs are randomly assigned during production.

If that is the case, it is a big assumption that there are only 9,000+ left to deliver. Based on the small sample of CCF members waiting for this coin, I would suggest that there are fewer that have been release than there are coins yet to be produced.

I do not agree with that why would they not go in order for COA's you think they just grab one out of a barrel in stick in a case that does not sound reasonable.

While I don't think the # on the COA corresponds to the order of production, I think you're going a bit far assuming that means they are assigned completely randomly. I haven't read anything to that effect. I would think that, for example, they would do a production run of 5,000 coins and 5,000 COAs (#s 1-5000) and then match them up. Then do another run of 5,000 coins and 5000 COAs (#s 5001-10000) and so on. So you wouldn't get COA # 20000 assigned to coin # 1 although you might get COA # 5000. Complete speculation on my part but I would lean towards believing that the highest # COA out there corresponds to the # of coins produced unless somebody who has specific knowledge of the production process tells me different. Just my opinoin.

You think the RCM or US Mint take the time to line up COA #1 with very first coin produced and COA #2 with second coin produced , 25,000 times?

I think someone would just take out a stack of COAs from a box, manually insert them into each box. They wouldn't spend the time to look if any of those COAs is in order or not. Coins are minted in batches, COAs are most likely prints in one batch and shipped to mint in a huge box. Just my assumption. This will also explain how some of the low mintage coins carry high COA numbers.

Further assumption, the printed COAs might be in bundles in boxes, thus making it hard to tell without checking.
