    Just got this in today, had some BTC "FOAM" last week so ordered this up, believe it or
    I am the owner of "ZERO" AGE Type 1.s be it in B/U or otherwise so thought i would
    change that this time around.

    An AGE Type 1 is not rare, the MS 70 grade helps on that but what really stands out is where it was struck, it was struck at the West Point Mint 2021 ( W ) this is a highly
    desirable mint and of course a nice premium comes along with it, but when its time to sell my kids and grand kids should have no problem tripping that premium :)

    Great looking chunk of gold, the label helps but where's the "W" under the date? I must be missing something!

    It’s a gimmick for people who don’t know much about graded coins….The only way to get the label is if it comes directly from a tube/monster box that came from the West Point Mint, the coin itself is indistinguishable from any other mint….It’s a nice coin but not worth the premium just for the label.

    In other words, it's just bullion.

    Yeah I thought as much, a bit of a ripoff from the US Mint but under the link I went to they say that all bullion and Proofs get the "W" mm. Wiki must have been written their information in 2006 but they're wrong today. :)

    Yep another gimmick, quite the hustle! :D

    Premium bullion MS 70 first strike..ETC
    most important factor has West Point label
    which it makes a way more desirable peace
    when it comes time to sell or when the grand
    kids do.

    The ( W ) stands for West Point as that
    Is where it was minted, so now yiur not
    missing anything…LOL

    I have noticed some that don’t have the W
    in the title though nor do they have a W
    mint mark, but either way the coin was
    struck at the West Point mint and that’s
    why I bought it, several mints strike this
    coin but being there makes all the difference
    less population more value, for what it’s worth
    LOL :)

    There is no W mintmark on your coin. So you're saying you bought the label, not the coin? And that's going to change it from bullion to numismatic creating a premium? Apparently only when you're buying it. Won't be the same when selling it. Maybe your grandkids will see that happen. I highly doubt it though.

    Absolutely, bought the coin because it was
    minted at West Point as advertised and labeled…Period, your just another person
    trying to belittle my purchase :(
    atleast my grand kids will have a _ _ _ _
    loud of gold and yours ? hopes and dreams…LOL :)

    Your parents missed teaching you a life lesson young man. Never count someone else's money. You don't know me and certainly know nothing about my finances. In your words.....lol
