Thoughts on American Liberty 2021 High Relief Gold Coin?

Great looking coin. But not worth $2715 in my humble opinion.

It’s very attractive, but since it’s not a coin, because it has no stated face value, the state sales tax rules in many states will eat up whatever profit you might gain from it.

Buy it if you like to design, but it’s a money pit unless the price of gold bullion goes way up.

 

It is a coin that clearly says $100 on it

 

I am surprised that no one corrected my previous assumption that this was the first $100 US coin. I have since discovered that previous Liberty COINS were also $100. Their mintage was 4 times what this coin is, though, so that may affect the resale value, as the others are still near issue price.

 

Id kind of forgotten pretty much everything about those as I usually don’t pay any attention to these. I really love the design this year which caught my attention for this one. I’m usually one of the more critical people of mint design choices but between this and the coast guard medal I’ve been presently surprised with the mints design choices this year.

 

$920 over spot. I’m out. Great design. Glad to see some good artistry for once.

More like $2700

 

I think the bucking bronco, throwing it's saddle is a great design, just not for a gold coin. I would really have liked it on a silver coin.

Anywho, way out of my price range, probably out of a lot of peoples price ranges. I could see it being popular, just out of reach for many people, so I guess it's for the distinguished collectors, the ones that will say "a horse? Why a horse? that's not elegant, can ya please pass the jelly!" lol

 

I really like the coin. I just wish that I could get a $2,700 charge to our VISA past my wife. It's way too high for me. Any idea what the coin sellers will charge for this one. I saw on TV that they are charging almost $300 for the ASE Type 1 and Type 2. They said something else about how they were getting those coins ahead of us, which we all knew anyway.

 

Like I said, I'm not crazy about the design, and that's crazy money. There might be a good profit opportunity for flippers, but I'm not sure I like the risk/reward this particular time. I'll stay out of y'all's way on this one.

 

Says the mint, "The obverse (heads) features a wild American Mustang horse, bucking off a western-style saddle, evoking the throwing off of the yoke of British rule during the American Revolution"...after first saying that it represents more "...modern interpretation of Liberty..." Say what...modern interpretations of Liberty bucking off the yoke of British rule some 240 years ago...? Just doesn't make sense or "cents" to me. Like the rendition/art by itself, but hate the explanation and marketing attempt of/for a "modern" LIBERTY. A bunch of horse-sense, maybe.

 

There are a lot of really neat commems I can buy for that price.........pass.

 

beautiful coin but at $2715.00 and gold at $1782.20 seem like a looser to me, even at the low mintage of 12,500 tokens.

 

Well, nobody's banging the door down on these..........still available.

 

Not any more.

 

websites accepting orders still on a back order status. I don't know if it started that way or not. but yeah, still available to order.

 

Apparently everyone agreed with that and didn't want to eat a 1k premium. It would have sold out instantly if it wasnt priced so aggressively, but the fact that its still available an hour later is a really bad sign for something with such a strong premium

 

At least one of the big box coin sellers is offering an immediate return on the purchase if you sell yours to them! Looks like the prior $100 coins are selling for much more than when purchased.

 

It amazes me how popular this new mint stuff seems to be. Time was if it wasn't coin, they were slow sellers. I still don't want one at that price.

Interestingly enough, the Law Enforcement commemorative coins are as popular as small pox. I ordered one of the three piece sets, which is supposed to be limited to 7,500 units, and it's still available.

 

Yes, as the popularity of the modern commem's continues to decline I'm trying hard to resist buying the BU silver dollars whose mintage numbers keep dwindling
