Not much of a sale. Regular price right now at J&M and some other dealers is $11.89, if you live in a large city phone around, go in person, some dealers will let you pick and choose your coins.
If they are all pre-1966 coins how could you possibly get a loonie?

I think you meant Silver dollars, loonies were never circulated in 80% silver. Only commemorative loonies were ever made in silver (varying %'s).

I'll bet they probably only had about 2 sets.

Sold out extremely quick.
My point exactly why no one's buying collectable coins, as a lot of 'collectors' are buying bullion.

Bullion (silver) has been static now for a long time... September, historically, used to always be a good month for silver... but, obviously, it is not going anywhere, anytime soon.

Perhaps someone is manipulating the metals. Would not be the first time.
I believe there are numerous Countries who would do this.

Yes my mistake for saying "loonie" ... what I meant was silver dollar. Would be nice to get a decent one for $11, not too bad of a deal, but nothing amazing either.
The only thing that takes away from the deal is the shipping cost, while only at $8, that negates some of the savings.
I'll post what I get when I receive the package. 700 "units" sold-out within a day

I just looked at what my local coin store is PAYING for silver dollars... it's 10.87... So $11 bucks is actually a pretty good deal per dollar...
Having said that and knowing my luck... expect silver prices to jump late in the day today... and fall off a cliff as of next week... As I'm buying up a mid sized lot of silver today.. and I just know my luck! LOL Hopefully there will be some gems in there that I will have to share with you.
