Or perhaps, maybe not........

The problem is that there is NO mintage limit. They could produce mountains of this set and sell them for years. I don't think that it would happen that way, but there is nothing to preclude the mint from minting the coins this year and selling them until they sell out next year.

 

Still, I'm puckered up on this one.......

 

You are giving us so many good nuggets in here.. more than quadrupled? I didn't see any 2011 sets go for over $1,200.

 

Another nugget. You do know doubled is multiplied by 2, right?

 

But it is unlimited mintage...

 

You are correct I only slightly made more than triple on that $950.00.

Still $300.00 turning into $950.00 for doing nothing but picking up the tele isn't that bad..

 

Yes my implication was that minimally your investment will double, but the multiples in reality will probably be greater than 2.

 

semantics aside, my point is, I think we have a real money maker on this one coming up at the end of October. The first in about 4 years. as Numismatist's we should spread the word in my opinion of a possible "Great Buy" coming up from the U.S. Mint. I also remember there being a large debate on whether the 2011 ASE set would be a money maker, there were a great many nay sayer's on here back than too.

 

Maybe for a short while. I'm sure that the TPG's will have "some" type of label to offer in conjunction with the First Strike™ label.

A lot depends upon how the coins look since, as you know, they WILL be 90% Silver. I'm certain that some type of marketing campaign will be waged within the year touting the coins as special (which they will be).

Remember, just because they will be available doesn't mean they everybody will be ordering them. Some people don't even bother with "Coin Forums" or online chats and I expect that, given the success of Coin Vault and HSN at selling their over priced wares, that there is a HUGE market out there of "willing buyers".

 

No Not a chance. Have you seen what happened with the Gold kennedy? first they were 3000+ at the show then immediately down to the $1100 price range. less than release price. You aren't going to quadruple your money on kennedy coins I just don't see it happening. Unless you discovered some sort of mint error that everyone wants.

 

Also of note, the San Francisco uncirculated will be done in some "special" never before process.

 

But this is comparing apples and oranges, gold is way over priced. The reverse proof and special uncirculated will definitely fetch a hundred a piece individually..

 

Also from now till the end of time Kennedy collectors will pursue these as a must have to complete their Kennedy sets, the gold isn't exactly the same nor part of the set.

 

Gold is cheap right now it should be a lot more that what it is right now. The reverse proof will be worth a small premium definitely no $100
Kennedy coins are scrap metal coins IMHO

 

Have you been hired by the Mint to try to sell me this kennedy set? that's what it feels like.

 

Gold has been way overpriced since leaving the 600-800 dollar range, just as silver has been since going northward of $7

 

PMs are undeniably on a high kick, nobody could deny that...

 

I bet ya, your buying a set or two aren't ya?

 

To say $3,000 down to $1,100 is misleading. The show coins still hold somewhat of a premium over the raw coins that are selling for $1,100. The show coins ARE way down though, and I am tickled I sold mine there for $3,050.
