Do you think it could be the box that is boosting the price? Like the Nixon Box?

 

how is that even legal? the reverse proof coins aren't legal are they? excuse my ignorance but i am flabergasted!

 

*blink blink* Come again?

 

how did they manufacture reverse proof coins?

 

Much like how they make Colorized State Quarters....they have some Chinese Worker being paid 5 cents a coin painting the proof-like surfaces in.

 

its paint? shameful i thought they were putting the coins in amfg process yikes what has the world come too

 

WAIT!
Ya missed it:

"Reverse proof Brilliant Uncirculated random mint 2007 George Washington dollar "


So, it is a reverse proof UNCIRCULATED !

 

INDEED!

 

Yeesh... I need to start making a list, to post by the computer, of all the riff-raff out there trying to chisel me out of my hard earned green backs....

Even I picked up on that "Creative Marketing"....

 

The surfaces are not altered, but they ARE NOT US MINT either!!! Their response when questioned:

 

SO you don't think it is a private mint thing like the Franklin mint?

 

It wouldnt be legal for a mint like The Franklin Mint to mint coins to look like what HSN is selling. It would go against the new laws the mint has been able to get put in place. They dont have the word 'Copy' or 'Replica' or whatever the term is that is in that law. I dont know exactly what was put in that law, but someone else might but i do believe it has to state clearly that it is a copy ...

so i do believe GD is correct that the coins are original, but something was done to them... i just dont know what

 

There is a link for making a review on that HSN site for the Pres dollars.

The Franklin Mint has always done there own thing and have minted many coins for other countries. Back in the late 60's before they got real big they made coins for the Shell Gas game with all the Presidents on them. I have a couple of them, if I can remember where

Today they are right across the road from the WAWA dairy in Media Pa about 10 miles from Philly

 

for once i agree with my ffg
