2017 American Liberty Gold

See my post right above yours that I quoted it includes the price and a link to the pricing chart.

When you get down to it, it really is a gamble. People who like the more classic designs (myself included) will pass. People who feel (myself included), that the price of $1640 is overpriced will pass. If this happens it could be another Jackie Robinson uncirculated set that went up substantially in price.

The other side of the coin is put together speculators and people who like the design and it may turn out to not be a low mintage. Look what happened to the 2015 $100 High Relief version, it had a fairly low mintage but hasn't moved much in terms of price appreciation. On the other hand the 2016 S&W metals with the same design went sky-high, because of the mint's low production numbers.

 

That's just it...for the same money you can have a beautiful $20 Double Eagle with numismatic quality and desirability.

 

That didn't show for me earlier for some reason, at least my guess was right lol. That is a pretty stiff premium though.

 

Looks even worse now with gold reaching $1250 the price moves to $1690

 

Seems like the closer it gets the more their is to dislike about it. Will be interesting to see what first day sales are

 

Personally, I think it looks like a jewelry pendant and that will probably be the fate for many of this coin.

 

Final price is based on the average over the past week. Probably still looking at $1640 to start out.

If that's the case, then these will probably be available for much less on ebay by the end of the year (assuming gold doesn't jump to over $1500), much like the 2014 gold Kennedy.

 

Good Point

 

anybody know if there is going to be a silver version off the coin

 

Not a coin but a silver medal. Just like in 2016.

ok thanks

 

The 2017 $100 Liberty is the 2nd in a series. The one made in 2015 has appreciated. They will make one every other year, with two silver metals, with the same version of Liberty made during the off year. In 2019 Lady Liberty will be Hispanic. Ironically, in proportion, the 2016 Silver metals have appreciated much more than the 2015 gold coin. After seeing the mintages of the 2017 one, i scrapped enough money together to buy one from the mint. It's a gamble, but only time will tell if it turns out to be a good buy.

 

There are 4 silver medals this year

 

Four? The 2016 ones were the same only one made in West Point and one in San Fransisco. What makes the four different? All four mints?

 

Well, either 4 or 5. I heard 4, but this says 5:

I thought they were going to alternate years between gold and silver...?

 

I believe that was the plan but they couldn't miss the opportunity to sell five medals instead of one by doing the silver this year for the 225 anniversary of the Mint.

 

Actually 4 different ones, I believe. Maybe 5. Different surfaces, like the 2014 silver Kennedy set. None of the silver Liberty versions will have a denomination. Medal only, not a coin. Expect the "turn" direction to reflect that fact.

 

Just to update the initial thread, the gold one has only sold 20k so far.

It's already happened. The graded 69s even the special label PCGS ones are selling under issue price and the raw ones have been significantly under lately. Someone tried to sell 5 raw ones about a week ago, none got within a 100 dollars of the issue price and and 2 didn't even get within 300 dollars.
