jtryka Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 What many miss in this release is that these will be like the experimental patterns in the Smithsonian, stuck on planchets twice the thickness, and the diameter of a $10 gold piece. Still, I will buy one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncle Charlie Posted April 18, 2008 Report Share Posted April 18, 2008 I think the united states mint has been doing to many new "collectible" coins lately. As far as I'm concered these coins will most likely gain little value in the market compared to a noncollectors raritys. This is because all coins such as the bicentainials, have never really gained much value over the years. Probally due to the fact the public hoarded these in large numbers and they never really circulated that much. This means there will still be plenty of mint state examples in the future, therefore decrease market value for the coin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TreasureGirl Posted April 18, 2008 Report Share Posted April 18, 2008 I agree. All these new series/collector's editions are boring the hell out of people; I think it would have been more effective if we had the State Quarters, did nothing for 5-10 years, did the Pres Dollars, did nothing for 5-10 years, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
