I thought the mint said they were going to center the date between the stars, that that was one thing they wanted to correct about the original design?

Looks like just over 40k sold right now, meaning almost 35k remaining to be offered at some point. The time to sell would be now

@machine20: What makes you say that? When I visit the product page, it says none are currently available.

My understanding is that it is a sellout, the others would be bulk purchase. I opened mine last night, it is a very nice medal. Read today they are selling unopened for $350+. Wish I read that last night

Sales stats from the Mint are 40,999 through of 10/20/2024. I do not know if that includes bulk.

In late 2023, design renderings for the pair were presented to the Commission of Fine Arts (CFA) and the Citizens Coinage Advisory Committee (CCAC). The review panels offered differing final recommendations. The CFA favored alternatives addressing alignment concerns in the original 1794 designs, while the CCAC endorsed the originals. Ultimately, the originals prevailed, with the U.S. Mint describing the final designs as "true replicas of the original dollar, re-sculpted by Mint medallic artists." This is the deal-killer for me. I'm not getting one. |
