jewellge Valued Member United States 193 Posts	Posted 01/20/2009 8:10 pm Quote: With a mintage limit of only 500,000 coins across Proof and Uncirculated, this coin could easily become a big winner. Demand could quickly outstrip the supply, especially in a year when the Lincoln Cent is getting it's first design face-lift in 50 years. Add to this the popular sentiment towards Barack Obama and the associations between what Obama has accomplished and what Lincoln stood for, and there could easily be a public frenzy to acquire this Lincoln Silver Dollar issue. It's going to go for at least $25 $10 to Abraham Lincoln Bicentennial Comission $1 face Value $8 silver (0.7736 oz) Costs of production and marketing Report this Post to the Staff
biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 01/20/2009 11:26 pm I believe that the prices will be the same as the 2008 commems($37.95/$43.95) As an aside, I wonder if the Mint will do a special release event like they do with some commems? Obviously, the place to do an event would be Springfield, IL and I will already be in town on Feb 12 for the bicentennial festivities Edited by biokemist6 01/20/2009 11:32 pm Report this Post to the Staff
tornandfrayed75 Valued Member United States 447 Posts	Posted 01/24/2009 8:37 pm The mint says that this coin is a tribute to the anniversary of Lincolns birth. Why then, is there no reference to that, on the coin? Report this Post to the Staff
wetglaswegian Member United States 917 Posts	Posted 01/24/2009 9:27 pm Im wondering why the Silver Eagles are .999 and these comm's and others are 90% silver ? Neither are made for circulation so why not .999? Report this Post to the Staff
jbuck Moderator United States 189340 Posts	Posted 01/24/2009 9:53 pm .999 is the normal mixture for investment bullion, where it is expected to be as pure as possible. Even though the eagles are non-circulating legal tender and can be used as such, their primary purpose is as investment bullion. .900 (90%) is the normal mixture for circulating US Silver. The 10% copper makes them more durable, which non-circulating bullion does not require. Even though they are also non-circulating legal tender, they are still made to those specifications as a matter of tradition.
