Maybe The Mint Should Consider Repricing Their Coins..?

Thanks for the correction, Commems!

So when silver was at about $5 an ounce, RCM silver dollars were composed of .925 silver weighing 25g. How much silver would that be? About $3-4? About 8x spot?

Another way to compare, would be:

- silver @ $5 with RCM silver dollar price $25-$35
- silver @ $20 with RCM silver dollar price $70.

- $5 spot x 5 = $25 and $5 x 7 = $35
- $20 spot x 5 = $100 and $20 x 7 = $140

So, isn't $70 for a 2013 silver dollar still a better deal than earlier issues for about $30?

Hope this makes sense...

The only way they would drop the prices is if people quit paying those prices. We can complain all we want about the prices, but people still buy the coins. With the recent market slipping and the magnitude of releases, it might not be long before the Mint drops their prices.

and I believe the face value printed on the coin is not an accurate method of figuring out face value case in point the 100-4-100 coin, and I am sure no-one will ever sell their Venitian Glass coins for their face value, but some people will sell and have sold their 20-4-20 coins. If the mint sold nothing but 20-4-20 coins, and 100-4-100 coins they would go broke very quickly.
As people have already returned those coins for there initial investment. Those coins are what they call in the business Lost Leaders, they are trying to get more people buying other coins,..just my opinion.

And maybe pigs will fly soon
