howell1018 Pillar of the Community United States 798 Posts	Posted Today 9H 10M ago It appears to me that the Comic Art Series has been less than successful (I'm talking about the gold coins for the purpose of this discussion). I see the first mint report for the gold Supergirl shows sales at 394 coins. I don't know if they can legally do this, but what if the mint decided to end sales of the gold Supergirl coin right now, thereby creating an instant rarity? Do you think that would spur sales of future Comic Art releases specifically, and commemorative coin releases in general as collectors might now fear being shut out of a future "instant rarity?"

jbuck Moderator United States 196778 Posts	Posted Today 8H 48M ago My take on human nature says yes. My knowledge on the price of gold says... maybe? I might actually like to collect the (silver) series if medals were more affordable.

psuman08 Pillar of the Community United States 1876 Posts	Posted Today 8H 24M ago FIFA gold coin sales are not much better. @jbuck nailed the answer. That said, no matter how much they cost, I would not buy them. I wish the mint stuck to making great collector coins and better circulating coins. Report this Post to the Staff
jbuck Moderator United States 196778 Posts	Posted Today 8H 11M ago I do not mind the Mint creating medals. I really do like the Liberty medal series. With that being said, I am glad the Comic Art is a series of medals. I would highly disapprove if they were being issued as legal tender coins.

Corbe Valued Member United States 311 Posts	Posted Today 7H 57M ago Supergirl is $3350 for 1/2 oz gold ($2094 spot), and $400 for 1 oz silver ($59 spot). Well above the FIFA gold coin pricing. Report this Post to the Staff

For $25 less I can get the diamond field dollar set that is also way overpriced.
