FV $2,500 Mintage: 1 Will be auctioned May 31 Already has its own topic http://goccf.com/t/421409 Auction Link https://www.heffel.com/Auction/IndexMulti_ESo I am hoping for more from May since this selection seems somewhat limited in audience and given the low mintage and no buy limit...

That 999.95 at the end of the price almost makes me think I can. No maybe not!

The Mint has been increasing the number of its high-dollar releases over the past decade or so. It wouldn't surprise me to learn that the increase is part of the slow transition of its business model to rely more on these types of high-priced/low mintage "boutique" pieces vs. traditional collector coins whose mintages keep getting reduced due to lower demand. The high-priced "luxury" coins offer a higher potential for issue-specific profit, and the lower number of annual releases would likely allow for a reduction in production staff.
Just my thoughts based on my long-term observations - no confirmed "insider" scoops!

Not interested in any of these. Looking for more reasonably priced ones. Is the multifacted animal (eagle) going to be a series or just a one-off? I would like them to release more animals, like the polar bear. My older wildlife ones are milk spotted.

You may already be aware of them, but the Mint has previously issued multifaceted animal-themed coins: - 2019-20: High-relief one-ounce silver coins with animal heads - 2016: Geometric Art Series with animal scenes Collecting history one coin or medal at a time!
