Do they have a "for sale" date?

Just so you know the only proofs they are making are this one (1oz and the same design 5oz). None of the labors will be getting proof versions. It was mentioned when the series first started. Quote taken from site, "This is the first â€" and ONLY â€" silver proof piece to be released in the 12 Labors of Hercules series. Proof Hercules rounds will arrive in a custom display box with a Certificate of Authenticity."

Just ordered my 1oz proof versions. Better hurry if you want one. They only made 1000 and they are 5 short now.  The 5oz I just couldn't swing, oh well.  |

Thanks for posting this. I picked up the 1 ounce and 5 ounce.
Because of this, you can expect prices on both to drop soon :)

Is there a way to see how many have been sold (like you can on APMEX)? I ordered a few, but they are still in the mail. Anyone received either of the proofs yet? If so, how do they look? |

Lowest number I received was 325 on the 1oz. And they look very nice! Edited by Dar

I just received some one and five ounce proofs. They are great.
However, I actually like the large case to hold the entire series even better. I picked up two of the Zombuck cases and two of these and the Hercules cases are much nicer.

I'm actually thinking of getting the Herc cases as well.
They seem like they'd make a nice presentation.
I have 2 sets of each going now. The Silvers and the coppers.
Would be nicer to store and show with the cases.

Labors of Hercules are great coins.

Dar,
You won't be disappointed. The inside has a slot for the five ounce in the middle, and a nice oval for the labors.
I got two boxes (one for copper and one for silver).
Unlike the Zombucks box, the plastic holders are not included. However, I wish the Zombucks would have skipped the holders and improved the quality of display.

I just checked on Provident and they are only showing 39 of the one once coins remaining (unless they are adding more later).
It will be interesting to see if they sell out this week. The 5 ounce look to be moving more slowly, which is probably to be expected given the price point.
This is turning out to be a fun series to collect. When I have time, I want to research the different meaning behind each coin.
