This coin was accompanied by a silver dollar and a clad half dollar of the same thyme. Issued in 1993 these coins joined a trend of diminishing mintage (possibly due to a lackluster design). It still is a valuable coin due to it's bullion content.

The obverse design is pretty good. The reverse design is a missed opportunity. Still a coin worth owning, if you can afford the price tag! =)

Personally if I were to invest in gold it would have to be a *really* nice design.

The logic seems backwards

If I were "investing" in gold, I would buy plain bullion and could wait for the market to go low.

That way I wouldn't have any regrets selling when it went high.


But since I am buying coins I want for a collection, I don't mind paying a premium to get a rare set or unique design.


However, when the day comes that I have to let that collection go, I will probably regret it.

I have been a collector for 60 years and commemorative coins had always interested me. When I was adding the silver commemoratives to my collection I felt at the least I was hording silver. When the silver commemoratives were all assembled I graduated to the gold issues. now twenty years later I have acquired most of the $5 commemorative types and have now been thwarted by just the gold content cost to continue making additions. At least I had been collecting when they were more affordable and now find myself with a bit of gold to pass down to my family.
