Okay, thanks, @ an auction & it looked like it was cheaply struck - not mintmade.

2017 ATB designs look generally good in my view. Exceptional design would appear to go to the Ozark Riverways. Edited by CoinsA-Z

Hey zookr, it is probably a 5 oz silver round designed in the style of the ASE. I believe I've seen such rounds as large as 1 troy pound. If the 5 oz product you saw is designed with a nominal $ value, then it would not only be in violation of certain US laws but it would also not be legal tender Though these rounds in question are not products of the US Mint, they certainly might be neat to hold and own nonetheless. I don't knock a product just because it isn't produced by an official country's mint. Where I do have an issue is when the producing (unofficial) mint attempts to deceive the consumer and with the silver rounds I've seen that have a design similar to an ASE, the round didn't actually have a nominal $ value as part of the design. |

A set of 2 - but no silver tester w/me to discern actual metal content. It'd be a steal @ $150, if actual silver. There were 2 actual Eagles along with (each)

Depends on the silver content but sure if claimed to be .999 silver, I'd be very skeptical of that price.

I picked up a few extra Harpers Ferry Bullion pucks last week. It should do well.

I very much like the design and look of the 5 oz Fort Moultrie issue.....I am excitedly anticipating the release of the uncirculated collector version.

Not a big fan of the 2017 issues overall, but I do like the Ozarks design.
Update on TR P-puck: On the schedule now for October 6th.

Ozark Riverways is my favorite design for 2017. The 5 oz ATB's always look better in hand than the illustrations the mint uses to market these coins so I believe that I will be satisfied with all the 2017 designs once they are in hand, but the Ozark Riverways will likely be exceptional. |
