Quote: The 1914 $5 will be the interesting one. The hoard released a very significant percentage of mintage. It had the only major numismatic premium in lower grades.
Yes. For reference, here is mintage data for these coins. (from Charlton's 65th Edition, 2011) FIVE DOLLARS - GOLD 1912.....165,680 1913......98,832 1914......31,122 TEN DOLLARS - GOLD 1912......74,759 1913.....149,232 1914.....140,068 The 1914 $5 is the most scarce of the bunch.

I should have bought 3 1914 $5 instead of 1 1914 $5 and 1 1912 $10.

Was any information released about the 200K to be melted?
That could represent an even large significance for the 1914 $5.

If one buys 3 1914 $5, he could sell the 2 1914 $5 to make a profit to lower his purchase of the ten dollar gold coin. Thast how I look at it.

^^^^^^^^^
These are the estimated figures for the $10 gold coins from the Mint posted earlier in this thread:
1914 - 10,964 1913 - 6550 1912 - 1336
That is why the 1912 $10 is the 2nd rarest coin after the 1914 $5 coin. And why the 1913, 1914 $10 gold coins are still available. Due to the high quantity.

I want to know how many of each are being melted by the BOC! Does anyone think that they will ever release these numbers or does the BOC and RCM not really care about these numbers?

SilverBug: A family member just had their CC authorized for over $1000 as well, and they only ordered a 1912 $10.... Here's hoping!

With all respect to the rarity, and the historical significance - it doesn't worth such big money, as they asking.
