New Superman Series

Thanks, yeah but with RCM Superman gold coins, we pay taxes....

There is much difference in issued by a government mint and a private mint. Many people prefer issues from authorized government mints. I think batman may have been more popular if released by US mint. For Canadians looking for a Canada dealer; the coin shoppe in Toronto is expecting to be offering them. They just announced today on other forum.

He already has them on the website for pre-order.
CAD159 .... not cheap, but he has to buy the coins from APMEX and than to have some profit from the sales.

@Shopaholic:
very nice, congrats. You probably collect stamps or some stamps.
But for just coin collector - what to do with the stamps....you know, they will be just stuck somewhere, and the person will know : "Yeah, I have them".

@Shopaholic: Why are you speaking about me?

You did well, Lucv

Sure, we need to remember, that silver also might drop down.
But if any way you didn't want to keep that coin, the SML set is more interesting in collection, and more flexible investment.

if I was decided that day to buy the Batman coin it would be done via "The Coin Shoppe" only.
IMO, the APMEX loses a lot with their policy.
(i just do not understand it , but there might be some reason), more of this, why they do not ship to Canada via their ebay store? Strange...
So for me the APMEX just a website to get familiar with some coins.

New Batman coins are not impressive to my eye but I'm sure they will sell to the superhero genre of collectors...I note that APMEX is still trying to sell off its Spiderman coin for 6.00 less than original price of a year ago....and that coin has a 5k mintage....so I will probably buy in at some point when I return from Monaco..,..Also apparent is the insidious fake replicas of these coins which appear within 6 months from date of issue.....The gold Batman looks like a better investment to me than the silver coin....I would imagine it will pull a premium pretty quickly similar to the Superman gold and it will sell out fast I'm sure..Meanwhile Spiderman silver coins are selling for 20% less than issue on ebay so that is a long term investment..while on the superhero coins subject..Dr Who issue is doing great in both silver and gold..the gold coin is now at well over 3000 USD which shows that low mintage does create value in time however I might add that this price is not yet realized on ebay but I think that will change....in general with this latest Batman coin release it is clear that along with Superman and Spiderman a new genre of collectible coins is now solidly establishing itself

I havent been able to track the supermans in great detail because I been tracking other stuff but from the very little I seen, Cassidy77 is right.

The Dr Who gold coin, my only issue with that is one dealer sold their last one on ebay for 2200 in August.. and I believe I saw one dealer take on ebay a Best offer of 2600, prices in USD.

I do think the low mintage is helping this issue but there is not enough data to track it yet. The Dr Who silver coin, yes thats ones doing pretty good despite falling PM prices,, which again proves my point,, you buy in the secondary market ASAP.. and it builds and runs until it tops out...

that fits with my theory to buy high, sell higher or even hold for a long time and I think you have enough cushion for the dips in the coins value, which will be supported by hungry collectors...
