Very interesting this morning. I am currently tuned into the coin vault. They are selling the 2007 $50 gold buffalo, NGC MS69 Early Release for $1149. MS70 for $1199.

I didn't know that they received them that much earlier than the public. Mint website has release date as April. Has this always been the case, or am I missing something here?
Besides the fact that the mint will be selling these for probably $800 again....
