(first spouses) http://mintnewsblog.blogspot.com/200...old-coins.html They seem to be releasing these fast and furious this summer, the next one is out this week. Any takers? ...certainly not the prettiest coin of the series.

However, I will wait until gold gets into the $900 - $950 range before buying.   08-31-2009, 09:16 PM   #4 (permalink) covert coins Coin Hoarder   Join Date: May 2008 Location: UP of Michigan Posts: 839 My Mood: Not interested in them..   08-31-2009, 09:46 PM   #5 (permalink) green18 ANA# R3129541     Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: Long Island, New York Posts: 7,416 My Mood: She's sweet, but not as sweet as jeffersons' Liberty...... __________________ They also serve who only stand and wait....John Milton   08-31-2009, 10:43 PM   #6 (permalink) ontime1969 Junior Member     Join Date: Jul 2009 Posts: 98 Quote: Originally Posted by green18 She's sweet, but not as sweet as jeffersons' Liberty......

I plan to pick only those up down the road. __________________ The Truth About "O" Mint Morgan Dollars   09-01-2009, 07:29 AM   #9 (permalink) taurus876 Senior Member   Join Date: May 2006 Posts: 400 Quote: Originally Posted by jaceravone Thats the price range that it is in right now. True but the coins are not on sale yet. Gold has been right around $950 for the last few weeks. What I meant to say is If the gold is in the $950+ range when Polk comes, I will wait till gold is in the $900 - $950 range.   09-01-2009, 07:36 AM   #10 (permalink) vipergts2 Jester in hobby of kings     Join Date: Aug 2005 Location: Iowa Posts: 5,978 My Mood: I wish I could afford them. I think they have some very nice looking coins, especially the liberty coins. I also think they look much better in photos vs the mint drawings. the drawings never do coins justice. __________________ _____________________________________________ corn cam ( Great Iowa passtime) "Life is to short for bad wine" Viper   09-01-2009, 09:38 PM   #11 (permalink) jaceravone Member     Join Date: Jul 2007 Location: United States of America Posts: 3,667 My Mood: Quote: Originally Posted by taurus876 True but the coins are not on sale yet.

Yep, see your point now. I couldn't agree more. I don't think we will see gold below $900 again this year, $900-$949 is more realistic. Lets cross our fingers.   09-02-2009, 08:27 PM   #12 (permalink) taurus876 Senior Member   Join Date: May 2006 Posts: 400 Quote: Originally Posted by taurus876 I will buy it.

Guess I am not buying on the first day.   09-02-2009, 08:38 PM   #13 (permalink) Paddy54 Chesapeake Coins     Join Date: Jun 2009 Location: Mid-Atlantic Posts: 698 My Mood: Quote: Originally Posted by green18 She's sweet, but not as sweet as jeffersons' Liberty...... Agreed I did buy both proof & MS on the Jefferson...I was going to buy the other liberty coins but fear no return on investment other than bullion. Plus the price of gold way too high to buy 1st spouses. I am still kicking my self for returnning the proof buffalos last year I kept the MS 4 coin set I should of kept both.

I'm thinking the proof will look most excellent. Still not a buyer though.   09-02-2009, 09:13 PM   #15 (permalink) Danr Numismatist     Join Date: Jul 2005 Posts: 2,942 My Mood: As the prices go up and the new coins keep coming out I think a lot of collectors are going to tail off. I am guessing that speculators and dealers are already out of this game.   Page 1 of 2 1 2 > Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Would you like to support CoinTalk?
