Correction,



Previously I stated I Bought from the U S Mint Only Two 5-Ounce Coins.

After re-reading This Topic I have found I Also Bought The Teddy Roosevelt Coin Too......

Teddy retailed for $149.95.

That's a solid design for the reverse.

Being From The Town of Oyster Bay, It was a Treat to get a Teddy.

Not long Ago, While Entering the West Shore Road and Pre Bayville Area, in the Town of Oyster Bay, The Residents Had a Life Like Statue of Theodore Roosevelt Erected in Town. Our 26TH President, The Statue of Teddy is Him on His Horse, Depicting His Rough Rider Days, Very Powerful Land Mark Since !!!!

Teddy had a House in the Town of Oyster Bay called Sagamore Hill, His Summer White House.... Now a Teddy Roosevelt Museum !!!! Thought I would Share....... Love His 5-Ounce Baby....

While it's disappointing that it's been 3 years since the press has been used, I seriously doubt I'd pay $380 for 5 oz of silver no matter what they cranked out

So the average price per coin retail was $180. Seller is making $2,500 (less fees and shipping) assuming original owner that purchased from the mint.

While awesome, I would never drop $12.5k on this set in one fell swoop. It was much easier to eke it out over the 11+ years one coin at a time (and pay $43/coin less). As much fun as it was to collect, if I had the choice to do it again, I probably would not.

Coffee and curiousity led to a stroll through ebay "sold" listings this morning for ATB 5 oz. specimens. . .page after page with $500 - $525 results. My modest stack came direct from the USM at $149.95 each. . .five from 2014, one each from 2015, 2016.
If I had the need to sell, I suspect these would go before I started in on my ASE bullion cache.

made me curious to see if complete sets are being offered. APMEX offers free delivery for $33,305.00 - $594.73 each for the bullion versions. A BIN listing for the Burnished versions in OGP for $28,446 -- $507.96 each has attracted over 110 watchers.
Have a fine day.
