The United States Mint does NOT know what low mintage means as they make every effort to control the secondary market. Guess we had better go after high grades or proofs!

Well may get the bronze coins to go with the presidents dollars because I sure can afford all those gold coins over the years.
Figure if the bronze coins are not to much that would make the collection nicer having the Proof dollars and matching bronze 1st lady to go with them.

"To say anything negative about the idea you run the risk of coming off as an anti feminist."
"but I am now thinking that it is possible that someone who wants to collect these coins could end up feeling discouraged from sharing that collection with us on CC."

I'm a long time lurker, lead to create a username on coincommunity.com because of the attempts at self censorship here. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but the new First Lady coins do say "Liberty" on them. Can't we just freely express our opinions and let the chips fall where they may? Fear of hurting feelings and fear of discouraging action is a poor excuse for censoring yourself or anybody else. Your opinions are what make this site so valuable, please don't be afraid to share them fully.

I am a little surprised the First Lady Bullion sold out as fast as it did. I still don't see them as being a great rarity. I didn't predict the 20th anniversary Eagles would sell out either. I can't say that I'm too upset that I missed out on purchasing any of them.
Did anyone purchased any First Lady Bullion?

No. But I just saw them come out on E Bay for sale. One seller had them for $789 each, and I saw another for all four for $4000. Whether someone will pay that is another thing I suppose.
I am new to numismatics and was thinking about trying to start out with these, but in my heart I think it is probably good I did not due to the expense. I wonder if you can find older U.S. gold coins for less than what the U.S. Mint charges for these current issues. Then again, I suppose it might be better to get a little more experience before I try to purchase any gold or gold bullion in general. I guess it helps to set a budget as a starting point.

If these sold out so fast, Lady Liberty will be gone in no time.

I thought about buying them just to make some money off of them...not to keep.  Wonder if the Mint is being consistant and doing more proofs than MS? There are so many nice coins out there, I think I'd rather do like Prethen and get Proof coins from the 19th century.  For those of you who missed it... https://goccf.com/t/16069  |

My thoughts are that the mint is keeping the mintage low to generate interest where previously there was little.

I bought one of each on the 19th, in proofs. Took me 25 minutes to complete the transaction....called today after looking at the Mint's web site and saw them no longer available....customer service rep informed me they were sold out within two hours....
