After all, it's only Bullion, it's not a true Numismatic Collectable. Besides, the re-design of Liberty is terrible. Why must the revisionists keep messing with history. rs Report this Post to the Staff
Redrover68 New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 07/31/2015 08:47 am Can't believe all of the negative comments. This coin is beautiful, she is fit and strong not anorexic, google anorexic to see what it is. Love the placement of LIBERTY - This coin will make the "100 greatest coins". Very proud to own 2. 24K 50,000 limit .9999 $100 Sold out with in hours - Can't complain about perfection - but some do. Report this Post to the Staff

If one wanted this coin, you let all the flippers grab it first then wait 6-8 months and this coin will be hundreds dollars less than its initial release price, whatever it may be. This is how it always is lol Report this Post to the Staff

Ponchsox New Member United States 43 Posts	Posted 07/31/2015 9:12 pm The obverse and price was a deal breaker for me. Liberty on the obverse is way too big. The premium is a rip off. I think the U.S. Mint is trying to capitalize on gullible flippers. Report this Post to the Staff
Doug58s Pillar of the Community United States 899 Posts	Posted 08/01/2015 04:31 am This is not a sold out offering - there are still thousands to be sold. Perfection? There were 50,000 to be sold - 37,000 have been sold to between 12 and 15,000 buyers... I think you might be looking at the wrong numbers to perceive that as a huge seller. This "coin" will languish on the secondary market for a long time. If the average buyer bought 1 (which I see a lot here say they did), that leaves about 20,000 of these in the resellers hands, and the mint with about 13,000 left to sell themselves.

macmercury Pillar of the Community United States 5832 Posts	Posted 08/01/2015 04:44 am What happens if this coin doesn't sell out? Does the remaining balance get melted over period of time, or production simply ceases. Unlike the 2009 UHR, this one just isn't popular with certain collectors, could be the modern design lacking the old style charisma. Report this Post to the Staff
Doug58s Pillar of the Community United States 899 Posts	Posted 08/01/2015 05:03 am macmercury... the mint has already made the money on these. These will be on sale until they are sold out. If it came to melting them it isn't a great loss - since these are pure gold - it isn't like they have to do much beyond heating them to melt and pouring them into new molds.
