Jbuck, I have seen several variations of that comic over the years. That's a really good depiction! Although poor listening is just partly human nature. I have known many people over the years (probably including myself) who have had lists of good and bad practices tacked to their cube wall, only to blatantly ignore them in practice.

I can most certainly relate to that.  |

$2775 is beyond my budget. They are still available for sale. . . the silver medals are very attractive and as jbuck mentioned, they are available on the secondary market. A quick check of the bay shows slabbed examples of the first medal going for $385 - $425. Saw a raw example asking $325. . .

I would not rule out the probability that the Mint is simply focusing on the highest revenue and profit items purchased by "whales". It's a pitfall of business requirements, because it makes (false) sense to executives to focus on the highest profit items and the biggest spenders. Might be a bigger % profit maker for them, however looking at sales this one might fall flat 7:00 pm PST (California) ATS # 21,763 |

Almost 2 weeks since offered for sale and less than 10,000 sets have been sold (@ 12:30 PST and the ATS # is 20,028)
I'm wondering what the future will hold for this "numismatic rarity"? Your thoughts?
Did all the (dime,quarter...ect.) original 2016 offerings sell out?
If not does any know where we can find sold numbers?

The dime basically sold out 124,885. The quarter and half were each slightly over 90% sold of their mintage limits 100,000 and 70,000.
