Nothing I was joking commem. They look fine. 1 has a shot at 70. I'm surprised with such empty fields there wasn't more marring or debris strikethroughs. Seems like they learned a lesson from the c&c sets last year

Slow on this leg, but still way ahead of us on the journey.  |

I also has one coin with similar 'dot', at a different location. I will have to get pictures later tonight.
I opened the capsule and it seemed to be a raised dot.... so may be something happened to the die.

SA4H - I didn't open the capsule but my dot looks flat and perfectly round.
It was on one of the S mint.

The dot could be acid. The acid that was used to frost the eagles head

Good read! I'm defiantly NOT selling any of mine now.

Interesting read Foxwoods man. I'm still skeptical that they won't take advantage of "mintage limit:none" and make more though in some sort of special edition set that contains both medals. So this could either be a future key date to the series or a dud if they make more. I will probably hang on to mine though just because they are such nice looking medals.

If the Mint makes it a yearly issue then you know next year's mintage will go overboard...probably 75k OR mint to demand
