I'm going to say that this coin is not awaiting stock rather sold out.

According to my rep:
There will be one of these per year.
The mint is accepting standing orders for these once a ear issues.

This is definitively the best treatment of the Mint.
The exclusive coin has been gradually presented for the high levels of the MC, while not sure if Silver MC (due to overwhelming demand) had chance to order.
Not sure, although people tell opposite, that dealers have serious amount of these, up to 5 - maybe. Mint just do not want create the environment of "not enough".
As people mentioned - over-engineered obverse doesn't add the attractiveness for the coin. But still it nice and it first. The series is "long played", so with each and every coin the interest will vanish (similar to Zodiac and Go7), But the first one will remain popular for some time, and maybe the 1967 SD design.

The coin has been moved to the end of the list, which means it is really gone.

How do people feel not getting access to this low mintage coin, will you look for it elsewhere or pay a premium? Will you just forget about it?
I messaged my rep at noon, and if I don't get one, no big deal I tried.
It's been said to high a Mintage and people complain. Also to low collectors complain of no access. Which in your opinion is the better option? I would go with lower Mintage even if it means I don't get one. It's rewarding owning something relatively rare.

In my opinion, people dissapointed a little, but it exactly the same, as to fly with the economy class and do not have the same service level as first class. So people have several way: to be "more loyal", well of cause depends on the budget, but means to spend more with RCM. or try to wait for the dealers or just snag it as soon as possible from ebay. Almost guaranteed, that at least for the current short period the prices will climb up. Some of current high level MC member, people who spent a lot in previous years (BoC, Superman Gold, XforX), and some of them bought the coin for resell only. Next year, many memberships will not be extended, so next coin probably will be "Dyno-2". What was nice here - this coin was purchased not by people who was smarter or quicker, but spent more with the mint. |

I am also on a waiting list for the coin too. I ordered through my rep.
OK, should people order online or through their reps? What is the point of having a rep when the coin appears online at the same time you get the email?
Do the rep get a commission if the coin is bought online or only if bought through him? Why is advanced warning needed warning when it is going to appear online too?

I wonder how many are still MC after purchasing the BoC gold coin? I would think not many would of maintained their status. It will be interesting to see how many memberships will expire in June? I know mine may, as post office offers free shipping. The other interesting question is, if no longer MC will you also lose your rep?
I also find it interesting that the mint was expensive back in 2010, as indicated by the silver dollar set. They were smart by limiting the number of sets. We're the 2010/2011 dollars also issued separate to the sets?

A conversation I had last year when I first got my rep, said to only order through her! I also had some online orders cancelled by my rep, and then placed through her. This leads me to believe there's no commission if online orders are placed. It's too bad, as I prefer doing online orders. I wonder why only 90% Re reserved for MC members, and where do the other 10% go? Are dealers part of MC or is it just for private collectors? Does any other mint have a special program for their collectors?

For the "old" sets for me the 1908-1998 was enough, so I got the 1911-2011 and 1935-2010 Silver Dollars which have been issued also as separate edition (no set). |
