That's a nice looking medal. You might pull it out of the capsule to look at the obverse rim from K2 to K6. Looks like might have Rim Fin. http://goccf.com/t/442060Believe it or not it's a real uncirculated coin... no medal! |

5 oz? Yes, I messed up on the original post was thinking of my 2020 V75 WWII medal, I was going to post, the case is a little dusty.. I also have the ASE V75 direct from the mint! I was one of the lucky ones that got his order thru that day!  Edited by RockieDog

Yea it's covering the whole palm of my hand if you look at the photo & usually the mintage is real low.. like under 20,000, I get them direct from the mint..

They sold over 400k bullion pucks in 2011 with silver being what it was

Not sure how I missed this topic oriinally, given that I collected the entire series of Proof 5-oz pucks. Quote:
That's a nice looking medal. It's not a medal; the 5-oz ATB Quarters are legal tender. Although it may as well be a medal, as you'd have to be a fool to spend 5 oz of silver for $0.25.  Quote:
wonder why they haven't continued this to the women quarters? Personally, I'm glad they haven't continued them. It felt like getting a raise when the series was over. And as jbuck mentioned, the current price of silver and mint price hikes would price these out of many people's budgets (mine included). For reference, the series ended with the 5-oz Proof pucks at $229 each. Silver spot is about the same as it was back in April of 2021 when the series concluded, but the price hikes from the mint over the past 2 years lead me to believe that similar pucks would be at least $300 if on sale now. On a side note, they spent a LOT of money (which I'm sure has long since been recovered) on the special press(es) that are capable of creating 3-inch coins. Are these presses just gathering dust now? Also, for those of you who haven't seen the running ATB thread, check this out for lots of eye candy, lively discussion, info, and data. Grab a couple cups of coffee, it's a LOOOOOOOONG topic that spanned 10 years. Cheers y'all and happy Fiday! |
