Just ordered one of those myself, looks like a real eye-catcher.

You won't be sorry you bought it. You'll regret not buying more.

I've seen a couple that people have toned. Thinking about doing it to mine. My other two are getting buried in the sand to be "found" by my sons in 2 weeks when we go to the beach. Excited!  |

I knew the P1s were high relief coins, but this antiqued variety reveals just how incredibly detailed they are. I allows me to fully appreciate the "ultra-ness" of my shiny pretties. I'm going to buy one to place on the bottom of each redcap tube.

There's a company that will now antique P1 (or other coins/rounds) for the month of August only. They charge $10 plus shipping. Here's their work.  Edited by Ryans Rust

Hmmm... 4-5 hours in hard-boiled egg yolk, then a careful polish to remove the sulfide?
Maybe try it out on a cheapie first, though.

Anyone got any update on the final mintage of P1?
Price have been creeping up....

Price has been creeping up since dealer supply is getting low. I thought Provident Joe said they were set to make 50k but it was closer to 75k. Somewhere along those lines.

Yup I got the siren because my wife loves "mermaids" and also to continue the series.  |

I'm normally not into privately minted silver rounds, but I do have to admit I would've been tempted to get one or two of these (without the sirens) had I been actively collecting when they went on sale.
Might have to keep an eye out for these on the secondary.

It looks odd that the top of mast flag is blown in the opposite direction to which the sails are being billowed.
Artistic license, I guess!

I just recently received both of them in the mail. I am beyond satisfied. To be honest, (although it seems most people will agree with me on here), I really like the Siren one more. They also have airtites they make on the provident metals sight now that I ordered for them. I can't wait to see what the third installment will be.

Got mine in the mail (the original without the siren), I do have to say these are very cool looking rounds. The siren one doesn't trip my trigger as much, but I will definitely keep one in the safe and the other may be a card weight during poker games.
