I got one too. Only 13 with a limit of 1 and a 10min or so sellout. This is going to be a good one. I bet they will rarely change hands and those that were lucky enough to get one can ask moon money.. And get it! If they want to sell. Maybe one or two bought to flip? @jwitten I would check eBay a few times a day in the coming weeks. You may get lucky but you'll have to probably pay up.
Looks like he was playing around in his shop. Not attractive at all. If he starts putting out this sort of cheap looking spur of the moment junk with limited mintages, his stock us going to plummet IMO
Very attractive! Not to mention the symbolism as the WLH was the impetus for the ASE design! Brilliant move making them low mintage and I'm not just saying that because I got one. To each their own though ...And he always plays around in his shop. That's half of what makes his job one of the best around imo
Such love and devotion here. All he did was take a set of used dies, line up a silver eagle and BAM! $200? Uh, no. Good luck with it. After the neat story and find of the broken sword peace dollar, this is a bad swing in the wrong direction.
Not bad looking... just interesting. I would only buy it at issue price, but I agree, it is pretty steep. That is why he did such a limited number though.
Yeah right. I bet @jwitten would buy one right now for a bit over since he missed it... And he ain't the only one
Yeah, if I'd seen this when it appeared, I would've... dithered over it until it was gone. I'm still not 100% decided how much I'm interested in flipping items like this vs. owning them, and that's a dangerous spot to be in -- I can talk myself into buying lots of stuff with the thought "I can resell this and make a tidy profit", and then never be able to bring myself to sell it.
These are very similar to the same thing Royal Oak mint does on ASE's (except with a copy mark) that people had a negative reaction towards yet Carr does it and...
"Yeah right" he didn't just take old dies and slap a silver eagle between them? Or "yeah right" it's a swing in the wrong direction? You have to be kidding me if you think something created on a whim with hardly any thought put into it is on par with the Broken Sword design/story...
I saw the previous discussion about them. I don't think the general reaction was really negative. Some may have though that the die work was not exacting. I bought one each of the three different types beacuse I thought they were interesting. Only ONE of those three types has "COPY" on it.
