Visited my local PO yesterday, saw they have few of this coin. Pick 2, flip one coin for $50 bucks.
IMO, this coin more beautiful and has potential than the 25c ladybug.
And hey, the mintage is $20000, even less than the grow in the dark dino (25000).
It also comes with clamshell and COA while the ladybug not.

I saw two at local PO, I don't think it's a bumble bee (more like a fly or something else).

Just sale it to my co-worker who needs it as a B-day present for someone else.
for the stormy weather. I don't think it is good time to flip. Wait until the next coins in the series release, that would be the time. I still keeps my "Stormy Weather" coin.

I asked my post office about this aster 25c the said they put their order in for them two weeks ago. I find it hard to believe its really sold out anywhere if last years is still readily available.

@ timotay01 and all. Remember this coin has mintage limit only 20000 worldwide, pack with clam-shell box and COA while last year coin not. I do not have the last yr 25c ladybug and not want to get one, even it is the first coin in series.
Finding hit coins (for example: the dino coin) in the POs is not easy or can say "Mission Impossible". They all say same answer "We ordered but do not know when coins arrive.". Some even lies to customer "We are sold out" in that location, even you just checked everyday. Or might be the employees took all. Many many more excuses.
If you are lucky enough to find one at local PO. I think you should also buy a lottery ticket right away because lucks already come to you.

Looks like this one went from "Awaiting Stock" to "Archived" and off sale earlier today. The RCM has another sell-out on its books.
