Just my opinion, 1st the Westward journey Nickel did not get the recognition it truly deserves, it might some day. also the 2009's LC'S from the U S Mint just yesterday sold for almost $80.00, this is NOT what I would call a lower premium than issue price just yet, it was higher, but now still holding nicely.
Also the 2009's ( all coinage) IMHO, will bring a nice premium for years to come for many reasons, more than I will mention, 1st supply and demand, someone is Hoarding these coins by the truck-load, also there must be floor-boards bending in a lot of bank vaults somewhere.
I feel that when and if the hoarded coins are released to the general public, prices will come down a little( bank wrapped rolls), as for the U S Mint wrapped rolls, they will retain their premium, I feel because the "mintage" the LP1 had 96,000 sets, NO MORE, all gone... This IMO, makes this set a nice collectible to have in your collection.
I do not even care to venture a guess on the LP2 sets, I feel, if the Mint is smart they will produce more sets this time around, why, because the old "supply and demand", if people are willing to buy these coins for what ever price, this to me, makes these collectible, again, just my opinion......
