Alas! There's no free lunch, Ravenzcoin.

The coin you saw is a bullion Falcon. The mint released the proof NCLT Falcon first and if one didn't carefully read the description "...Your 99.99% pure silver coin is a premium version of the silver bullion coin, struck in proof finish and rendered in exquisite detail...", well I'm sure you get the picture.

I'm a bit lazy tonight, but what is the mintage for the bullion version of the falcon? Is it one million?

More importantly, what is the non-milk spotting mintage? Likely 0.

yup one million mintage.

If you were to collect only coins that did not develop milk spots, then you would be only collecting steel and copper and nickel. Those are not going to be worth much haha

The first go round , people bought/collected these with the anticipation of getting these (bullion) graded and gathering a collection (rightly or wrongly) that was going to show well and appreciate in long term value. Since these will most definitely develop milk spots, and at the admission of the RCM, will never be anything more than bullion, It is going to be extremely interesting to see how these sell as compared to the first series.
