I drive a 94 accord with 220k miles on it and it s worth $1500. .To buy a coin worth more than my car is a little hard to swallow.   11-27-2007, 08:22 PM   #9 (permalink) elaine 1970 jasmine     Join Date: Jan 2007 Location: new york city Posts: 5,398 My Mood: car vs: platinum but your car will always depreciated. and that platinum coin can go up. think about it.   11-27-2007, 08:32 PM   #10 (permalink) Aberlight Senior Member     Join Date: Sep 2006 Posts: 399 Quote: Originally Posted by elaine 1970 but your car will always depreciated. and that platinum coin can go up. think about it. So Elaine, are you a buyer of the reverse proof?   11-27-2007, 08:41 PM   #11 (permalink) elaine 1970 jasmine     Join Date: Jan 2007 Location: new york city Posts: 5,398 My Mood: buyer of platinum am i a buyer of platinum coins?. no. but i just observed it recently and found that the premium attached to it is quite higher than the american eagle gold series. well, because of that. i might buy 5 to 6 set. again, it might be limit to one or five sets per household. for the meantime, only the mint know.   11-28-2007, 11:05 AM   #12 (permalink) kidkayt Senior Member   Join Date: Dec 2006 Posts: 292 Quote: Originally Posted by Aberlight I have looked forward to this for the past year, but there is one problem.

I have a civic - it is worth $200 and needs an oxygen sensor worth $400. How's that for a contradiction... However i am thinking of the Pt Set as a complement to my Au and Ag sets.   11-28-2007, 12:00 PM   #13 (permalink) CoinSaver Junior Member   Join Date: Aug 2007 Posts: 17 Mint just announced price of platinum 10th anniversary set to be $1,949.95. The problem is they are issuing 30,000 sets. Way too many in my opinion. The gold reverse proof was only 10,000. I don't know how long it will take to sell out but I don't think it will be the first day, that's almost $60 million dollars worth. 30,000 is a large number for a collectable of this expense. You see what happened to the last dolley madison spouse series, it hasn't sold out in a week and a half because of the high price they put on it.   11-28-2007, 12:47 PM   #14 (permalink) elaine 1970 jasmine     Join Date: Jan 2007 Location: new york city Posts: 5,398 My Mood: too high for platinum reverse proof platinum reverse proof cost $1,069.00 each. you can buy proof at $880.95. total $1,949.95. currently bullion price is $720.00. not only that. mintage at 15,000 each are one of the highest for platinum series. if it really work out. it will be only 10 to 15% premium for first few days at e-bay and followed by crush to near bullion value in near future time. forget about it.   11-28-2007, 07:35 PM   #15 (permalink) Aberlight Senior Member     Join Date: Sep 2006 Posts: 399 Quote: Originally Posted by elaine 1970 platinum reverse proof cost $1,069.00 each. you can buy proof at $880.95. total $1,949.95. currently bullion price is $720.00. not only that. mintage at 15,000 each are one of the highest for platinum series. if it really work out. it will be only 10 to 15% premium for first few days at e-bay and followed by crush to near bullion value in near future time. forget about it. there are 30,000 sets so there will be 30,000 reverse proofs opposed to 15,000.   Page 1 of 3 1 2 3 > Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Would you like to support CoinTalk?
