2019 Five Ounce Big Coin Series

@Tender4848

I have no idea how they are packaging the 2019 Big Coin Series. I responded to @67fan because he was wondering why the final big coin "2018" penny came in the large wooden box (that should house all the big coins) whereas all the previous SIX big coins in the 2018 series came with a clamshell and a graphic white sleeve. I hope I have clarified my response. If someone had a subscription with TSC or any dealer, the final 7th 2018 big penny coin came with the wooden box. Some people who did not subscribe to the complete series got lucky when ordering just the penny and they accidentally received the big wooden box.

Also, I did order an extra big coin 2018 penny from TSC on its own and that one did come with a clamshell and a graphic white sleeve. My 2018 big coin series subscription was with CC&C because I qualified for 3X points on each coin when initially subscribed.

I agree with you that the rim looks disproportionate compared to the norm. I'm curious though, was this coin given to you as a surprise present? It's pretty obvious from the Mint's website - unless they changed the pictures recently. The rim is very wide compared to normal coins and I'm sure you would have noticed that immediately.


The good news it that this is a sellout so I'm sure the Mint won't mind taking it back.

Thank you for pictures of these coins.

Really amazing!!

And can't agree more: "Why this disproportional rim for 2019 coin?"

Hey, watch it...lol

This coin would look so much better with a normal rim, imo.

Too bad. I would have bought it.
