so much speculation... gotta say, their last huge announcement (1912-1914 gold hoard) is what got me starting to collect coins. I really hope it is something as big. another hoard would be awesome! ;-)

@silverwolf: I've been trying to contact you through e-mail. I'm not sure if you are receiving them though. give me a shout if possible.

I'm also guessing a gold coin with glass insects/animals.

With the above picture, I'd say it's a safe bet...

jpaiva83 can you post the source of that posting? Was it an e-mail from a rep? Also, was it today? That is, did you receive it today and 'tomorrow' is referring to Wednesday?

I don't want to miss the announcement but I also don't plan to sit around all day and miss the glorious July weather out there today.

And like the last three posters have speculated, it looks like a gold glass insect (probably a ladybug to start). It will be over priced, low mintage, sell-out and quickly lose value. IMO.

Well, according to the pictures, this is the Glass Creatures on top a gold coins (that's my guess now)

Few people from the other forum already know the answer. And "too bad" (according to them), that it can't be shared.

This is new "hit", something unique, due to which the 2011 GB will not be "the core" of the collection. Probably, nice profit to for quick resellers. But need to be really quick.

Pretty sure that one person posted about info coming out tomorrow morning at 11 or 11:30 without referring any source and the other was just poking fun at the first posters 5th grade "I know something you don't know" comment.

Everything everyone says on the internet is 100% true and accurate...right?

My rep just came back from brunch and sent out the e-mail.

Usually (what I saw from both forums), the knowledgeable people have some relation to CP or dealers. But dealers will be quiet due to embargo, while the CP related can provide some light in darkness.

Basically I do believe, that some people here and there (CCF / RFD) do have all details.

The initial mail (with the Lady Bug on the grass) spoke about the "collection", that will be revealed on Wednesday, and about "more details", that will come on Tuesday (today). So I think, the "more details" - this is the mail with all creatures. These mails received only MC people, so they are prepared and can communicate with the reps in advance. But the sale of the collection - IMO - will start tomorrow for everyone.

The gold coins usually have small size (1/4 oz). So I wonder what would it be - a bigger coin or a smaller insect?
