I like basketball too. Would love to see a commemorative coin. But why now? (So it's the 60th. :yawn:) And why the same mintage maximums as the...
Obviously do NOT scrub them. BTW, are you sure they're high-mintage generics? Check ebay sold listings for numismatic/rarity premium.
Generally, I agree most bullion itself is boring -- especially generic bars. So instead of just-bullion, I look for "collectible" silver...
The USMint made a similar mistake on steel coins they minted for the 1944 Belgium 2Franc: http://coinquest.com/cgi-bin/cq/coins?main_coin=7831 At...
Release date for the 2016 Proof ASE is still "TBD": http://catalog.usmint.gov/product-schedule/?_ga=1.111896321.404332514.1446916421 But I'm...

Yup, good advice. And it's exactly what I've been doing for the past year.
Hopefully it's a great design. Regardless, I'm in for at least one. Maybe two -- proof and uncirculated. BTW, is it too soon to begin...

I agree it's a neat-looking coin. Big too: 41mm diameter. And 83% silver. In the 1980's, I bought 2 of 'em at a coin shop in Austria: [IMG]...

Oops. Wrong forum? Definitely not a U.S. coin. Maybe a Moderator will move it soon.
Sales started today March 1st. Mintage 2,000. One per customer until March 3rd....
And the tired old "police mugshot" design doesn't help. But I bet it'd sellout in a heartbeat -- with one small change... "I'm Not A Crook"...
