Swimmingly Posted December 14, 2010 Report Share Posted December 14, 2010 I'm accustomed to seeing older coins go for this much, but why is this modern coin auctioning for such a high price? $885. and climbing, and Reserve still not met! http://cgi.ebay.com/2006-Red-Back-Spider-1oz-Silver-Proof-Coin-/300501760060?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item45f74cf83c or, http://tinyurl.com/28p4scc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedeadpoint Posted December 14, 2010 Report Share Posted December 14, 2010 Oh wow! I wonder what the mintage is? could be because of the novelty and all the insect lovers out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pickman Posted December 14, 2010 Report Share Posted December 14, 2010 The ad says mintage was 5,000 which I believe to be correct. It is part of series that the Perth Mint has produced under the flag of convenience of Tuvalu. I believe the series has been popular but that price does seem ridiculous.
