Every time someone bringing up Hawaii & Acadia (-P or bullion version), because I was going to buy those but then got distracted I bought some other bullion stuffs...... you guys are "killing" me with guilt.....hehehehe.
I really wish that the Mint will continue with the 5 oz program but reduce it to 2 or 3 release max per year, which will make the series more 'affordable' and easier for people to follow and complete it, which will boost sale and make it more popular. Buyers/Collectors financial stress is what killed the FS Gold series.
I really like this latest coin too. I am debating whether to get both P and bullion or just one. I still haven't get any P version for Everglades or latter release yet.... :(

Just received my BRP - P puck from the mint, along with the 2015 silver proof set. This is one of the few times that the P puck actually looks better than it's silver quarter counterpart. Too much of the coin is frosted on the reverse compared to the mirrored background. All of the coins look good to the naked eye.

Which 2016 design do you like the best? I'm thinking the Teddy puck will be the best one.

TR best, Shawnee a very close second, then Cumberland, Moultrie, Harper's Ferry last. There were some better designs for Moultrie and Harper's Ferry (like the hand with the rifle and the gears in the foreground) that would have made better designs.
Then again, what do I know? I'm not on the CCAC.

I agree with Atlas, TR is one, and Shawnee is the number two design. I can't get excited about the other three pucks even though I plan to continue collecting all of the P puck series. 28 pucks take up a lot of room, I can only imagine what 56 will look like when completed.

So annoying how the mint has not lowered the price on the collector pucks! $150 for less than $75 in silver, while during the subscription discount last year it was only a $30 premium.

The AP's cannot get any more but they are still available from all the dealers who normally sell bullion products.... Good looking product  .... |

That leaves less than 4K P pucks available at the mint. The funny thing I saw about the last few P pucks available at the mint is that the Homestead puck has been sold the most. There seemed like a lot of people didn't like this design?

Yeah I think that's just because it's been out the longest. Hoping they still have Blue ridge when I go for the coin and chronicles in a couple weeks

I hope they still have Blue Ridge at the mint as well. I, too, don't understand the 149.95 price as compared to spot. I guess with the coins selling anyway, no need to lower the price. I just think as compared to spot that price is way too high.
