    I really love the detail and amount of engraving on these. Anyone take a liking to them?

    Yeah I like the design. I'm waiting to see how this race goes this weekend. If there driver gets first place then the coin will be sold for 1 cent over spot.

    And they are cheap, thanks for posting. I had been looking to buy some for a couple weeks now. You can get them for like $17 delivered that seems like a deal to me.

    Where can you get them for $17 delivered? Even in quantities of 500, they are $.74 over spot, plus shipping, at Provident (which is the only primary source, I think). But yeah, pretty low premium.

    So if the guys wins the race or even comes in last place we can buy these coins between .01 and .43 over spot. That's a pretty good deal.

    Pretty rounds. I am just leery of rounds for long term holding of pm, prefering government issued coins. Too bad US coins don't change designs and bring something fresh to the party.

    Already sold out when I remembered to go back for them today! What'd they sell for?

    EDIT: He finished 42nd, so about $16.45. Not too shabby. If you got some. Sold out 25,000 in 90 minutes.

    You can get them on feebay for a nominal fee above spot of course. Sellers were selling those like hotcakes a couple of days ago and most likely still are. Gotta agree with medoraman up there tho. Long term would not pan out cause ASE's are numeral uno. Still a great looking design! dblthumb2.gif
