The coin that seems to be more rare (1914) more available...
So strange.
Probably, a lot of 1914 haven't been shipped, so obviously it easier to cancel the order.

I would go for the 1914, similar price, but BV of ~$150 vs ~$400. It's in great condition, consistently sells for a premium. Worst case scenario, buy the 1914, sell it for $850-900+, then buy the silver coin and pocket the difference.

Go with the 1912-1914 $5 piece. Regardless of the price of gold, it will ultimately keep its value.

Like the others say, buy the 1914 $5 coin and use the profit to offset the price of the 5 Oz penny, which is no longer available for list price.

don't you think gold prices are high just because not many coins shipped? how many buyers are you expecting on ebay when all this coins will be dumped to be sold for 800+ ? ;-) |

Point may be moot now, but buy 2 1914 coins, sell one and then buy the 5oz penny. :)

I'm in the exact same boat. I need a 1912 $5 gold to complete the $5 set and I also need the 5oz penny to complete my farewell to the penny set. There seems to be fewer silver pennies for sale so I think I'll grab one if I can get my hands on one. Perhaps I'll trade my 1913 gold for it. The design on the gold coins is pretty much the same (although the penny is as well) except for the year. The penny stands out when displayed strictly by its massive size and they fact it's silver. I think I'd go for the penny if I can find one in my area.
