The only great article would be that they never started the series.

 

lol i agree its a lil difficult to keep funding that program

 

The more classic designs I'll try to purchase....Jackson's Liberty, Van Buren's Liberty.

 

Too funny

 

Sweet! Danr, did you get the Louisa Adams?

 

unc

 

That will probably be the one I go with first too. Mintage less than 1500. This may become one of the keys to the date.

Do you collect the proofs as well?

 

Not quite ready to give up on them yet!

just the liberty ones (and only if I have extra cash). This is eating up almost my whole coin budget

 

:thumb:Actually there are many such great articles that should have been about the coins that should never have been made.
I'm waiting for the Mint to start with the movie star coins next. Then naturally there would be the movie stars wife or husband coins too.
AHHHH, an entire series of the Alvis Presly coin series.

 

Carl:
I can just see it now:
And this month: the older Elvis, thick planchet to match his weight!

 

With a grilled peanut butter and banana sandwich on the reverse...

 

Now, THAT was funny!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

LOL, The only one I want; Mamie Eisenhower, a giant in the fudge business...

Are they selling below melt value yet? When they do, I'll start buying.

 

I just bought my Louisa Adams during the 35% off Ebay thing. $220 cash back! What a deal. Yes I bought two more gold coins to get the cash back.

 

Where the heck did you find that deal???
