I just received an email about this and signed up to be notified once it becomes available. Watch the video at the bottom of the article linked below and you get a good idea of how much the design really pops out on this one. I was trying to save my coin funds this year, but I think I'm going to have to pull the trigger as soon as this one is ready! https://coinadvisor.com/2026-5c-5-o...MEgHSFcAx1SFKpI9R3LA95Na7EzxxKgbiqya-9unvnodn
I hadn't heard of this "beyond relief" strike. The Type II ASE that they already did looks pretty amazing, too.
Neat to see Native American tribes issuing coins. (Well, silver rounds.) Talk about high relief! Those won't be very "stackable"! I can see why you have to have one for your collection.
Being five ounces of silver, to start, puts it around $350 just for spot price of the metal, at today's prices. I suspect this piece will have a premium well above that anyway, though. I wouldn't be surprised if it's over a grand. Catherine said, "well, you GOTTA have it!"
I suspect it will be the largest slab I'll ever have in my collection, too. I have three of the state park "pucks" in slabs, but those are not nearly as thick as this piece.
My guess on the price would be $800 minimum, $1000 if silver nears a hundred, considering it's an MS70. I like it though.
