Said right on it Cent!

 

Did you read the article

 

The coins will be overpriced in my opinion. Another gimmick from the mint.

 

WANT vs NEED

 

I thought the prices were outrageous.

 

$290,000!

 

Only if you're buying mine.

 

I get all of the hate on these, especially considering the way the idiot director "handled" the whole thing, but I am intrigued. The cent has been a significant factor in the history of our country, and that part is now over. I know they are doing them in mint sets for the unknown future, but no more in circulation. If I had the means I would be in the auction, will definitely follow as they start appearing on the secondary market. I believe though that with only 232 sets there will be enough serious collectors who want them that they will not be flooding the market in the future.

 

Yeah I have been reading about this auction for over a week.
I was being a smart aleck.

 

ICG has already gotten in on the action. There are a bunch of slabbed 2025s on eBay with "Last Year of Issue" on the label.

 

Most of the lots have sold, between 48k and 200k, #232 is currently at 360k

 

wow

 

And 232 goes for 800k!

 

Wow moon money!

 

Yikes! I couldn't imagine having that kind of money just to spend on a coin! Lol

 

I would have liked to have seen #232 set be given to the Smithsonian and take a place next to its 1974 aluminum counterpart.

 

He would if it were buy2 get 1 free.

 

800K for a few worthless ugly modern pennies. Shaking my head... the amount of actual beautiful classic pre-1965 coins you could have bought with that.
