    I think he just released these today. I always miss his new releases before they sell out, so jumped on these. I did not go for the antiqued ones though. These will be a nice addition to the gold coins the US Mint are releasing this year.

    @jwitten yes, thank you for the heads-up.

    Edit: does anyone else think that Liberty's face on the quarter looks odd? Is it an exact reproduction?

    Too bad they're not actual sized coins, rather they're one ounce medallions with a rendition of the coin.

    as per web site
    "central designs are an exact-size replication of the three US coins which originally debuted in 1916"

    These don't excite me in the least. I'd buy them if they were (say) 1915-dated overstrikes, but I don't like silver rounds much. At least there won't be any 27 page threads about how he's minting counterfeits. :)

    Cool thanks. Think I'll grab 1 of each set later tonight.

    The antique ones will probably be the winners, since I am not getting them, haha. Just too much over melt value for me.
     
  11. They are all winners. :)

    I wonder that too. I have no idea if he does a set number, or for a certain amount of time, or what. I like some of his old designs, but I never catch them in time.
     
  14. Well, for the 2013 Buffalo nickel centennial he made 2,016 of them.

    He's done both in the past but usually there is a mintage limit posted if he does mintage. One may pop up at some point but only he could say for sure
     
  17. So far, 15 satin sets and 7 antiqued sets.

    Where would I be without you folks letting me know what and when DC next products are??

    I ordered the cheapest set along with one of the 2010 1/2 Amero's which I've wanted for a very long time.
