How Many 2013 Buffalo 1-Oz Gold Reverse Proof Will You Buy?

SA4H, yes one coin. I wish I know the graded 70's would be under $1900. I may have gone that route and had a perfect 70. My track record with coins and quality has not been good.

I had a great experience with Goldmart and would buy from them if thinking about adding a graded one. Under $1900 seems fair. I'm just waiting to see how a return/exchange turns out. If it works out I will be a repeat customer.

That $1889 price from Goldmart for a presales 70 is a bit too low, it's only $250 more from the issue price NOT including the TPG cost. I'd jump on it if I collected slabbed 70s.

@SA4H: hehe, I wish. I am purist collector that think it's bad form/karma to profit off of other shut out collectors, thus I only bought the one coin for my collection. Never flip for profit as tempting as it may be. Those kind of activities in my mind always have some kind of residual payback. My next big fatty is going to be the proof Buffalo to go with the RP. Have a couple of months to put funds together for that one, I expect.

I agree that Goldmart is pricing it at a low end, which mean it's good for us collectors. For the most appreciation in value, PCGS PF70 is the best options. Other retailers are setting the price bar higher.... I can see Goldmart will feel the pressure from the others; but this's better for collectors.

However negative experience other had with Goldmart, I have to give them credit for low price (they consistently offering equal to or lower price than others) on pretty much all new release PM coins. The disadvantage is that they don't carry older release and slow processing/delivery time.

I am about half way there to get my graded one from Goldmart.....

It's a good idea to also get the regular Buffalo proof also (diversify); however, my heart still itching for a second Rev PF Buffalo instead. My daughter born 2012 and I am expecting a son this November so if they don't have the same coin, they may fight over it down the road..... that seemed to be a good excuse.... hehehe.

Btw, what's the current sale figure for the Regular Buffalo Proof? Any projection on the final mintage? What are the average mintage of other years Reg. PF? Up until 2012, which Reg PF appreciated in value the most? Too many questions.... so sorry...hehehe.

You'll find the latest sales figures of US Mint coins here: http://www.usmint.gov/about_the_min...sStatistics/

So far, the 2013 buffalo proof has sold 13,141.

The 2012 sold 19,765 according to http://goldbuffaloguide.com/mintages/

There is a good chance the 2013 will be lower because sales are cannibalized by the RP buffalo.

Anyone seeing (and fuming about) the prices for the ANA/Chicago RevPr70 with Mint director signature on the COA? silvertowne sold out at $3499. They are selling like hotcakes. I don't get it. I reely don't know why someone would pay such a premium. I do find all these different labels confusing, some have 100th anniv. and some don't. Each dealer seems to have a different label... what's the deal with that!!

I agree with everyone, if your kicking yourself about the 2006 AE RevPR and the 2009 UHR (and my butt IS sore after paying todays prices), this one's a no brainer. History says it all. Get as many as you can afford.

Well, I think its a beautiful thing that a coin starts at 1750, gets graded with a show label at that..and a signature from a mint official and goes for almost 4K... Markets are a beautiful thing because if it wasn't wanted the prices would not be where they are at so more power to the coin markets! I just LOVE seeing the prices sky rocket.

I agree with you, if you can afford one, get one. If you can get 10, get 10. This coin is one for the record books!!

With gold and silver on the upswing, I bought my RPB today @ $1740. I have a feeling that the RPB price will increase before the window closes to buy them.
