Quote: half ounce might be under $100, But if the Silver Bells are outrageously priced then what word does one use to describe the pricing on the Gold Bells?  Freedom Ringing - Liberty Bell One Ounce Gold Coin Semiquincentennial Coins and Medals Philadelphia (P) $19,600.00

Quote: Could you image if they had created a 3 dimensional Liberty Bell coin?
It would be a difficult carry: "Is that a Liberty Bell coin in your pocket or are you just glad to see me"?

There's no way I would pay $750 for a 1/2 ounce of silver. The bell looks as if it was a after though. I can see the conversation. Oops I forgot to design that bell. Here this will work. Yes, I'm sure. Don't worry, people will buy anything that we mint. 750? We should charge more it's a collector's piece.

For $750, they could at least have fixed the crack.

Quote: You'd think that for $750 they could have been a bit more creative than this. For $75, I would actually like one.

The absurdity of this will only be outmatched by anyone who actually purchases it.  The other bit of crazy belongs to the Gold version at $10,050!

You'd be far better off spending $750 on airfare to Philadelphia and seeing the Liberty Bell in person. Independence Hall (which is proudly displayed on the US $100 note) is right across the street, oh, and, by the way, the US Mint is also right across the street so you could drop in and give them a piece of your mind on this stupidity.

Thanks mods for updating the subject to reflect both gold and silver, but if we want to be totally accurate, the silver is a medal, gold are coins. I mean, who wouldn't want a $250 face coin for $19,600?
