Quote:What is the Mint doing these days? Sold out coins become available again?! I feel bad for that individual who paid 199$ for this coin on ebay. Hope he/she didn't see this thread Some people paid more than $199 when they came out. I think they were selling for up to $250 at one time. Well, the market for them have certainly soften as some are being sold for a loss on ebay. Recent completed prices are $121, 117, 122, 111, 124. With the ebay fees you are looking at a loss. It just the old supply/demand equation. Now that everyone is getting them the demand for them have fallen. |

give it a bit of time. I'm betting this will be a summer moon mask in a few years. It is one of the really well designed (no thanks really to the RCM though, the art was essentially made for a coin) enameled coins the RCM has ever done |

Not sure if that's going to happen poboxw, the summer moon mask is stunning in real life. The clear field pushes out the mask like a high relief, which in fact it is a high relief, but not like the $20 KGV, KGVI, VICTORIA, or ELIZ ultra high reliefs.
Now I am pretty happy it took to long to get my order, as such cancelled the 2 Loon order. I still like it, but not as much as my new fractional set for the same price.

I fliped one around $150. I still have two of them in my hands. Hopefully it will do well in the future.

When I didn't get mine right away when they were first released, I was concerned. I'm sure I called a 1/2 dozen times to confirm it was still on order - as it showed sold out all summer. With the ebay prices so high I was concerned that I might end up having to get it in the secondary market. Today it arrived - flawless, and from my original order from June. |

Just checked the Mint website, there are now 82 coins left. But they may have a few more after the 82 are sold.

Even with a top rated status discount, seller loses a few dollars on it.

Can you return coins to the RCM for a refund? I really didn't want this coin as a keeper... |
