I disagree. They had a mandate to make the coins, but the mandate requires the coins to be struck on 1/10, 1/4, and 1/2 oz .9999 gold blanks....
That's inaccurate and unfair. The diameter of the coin is dictated by the size of a 1/10 oz blank, and how thin you can make them in order to come...
Equally proud to say that I bought one from the Mint and I like the coin.
Mine came today and I am very pleased. No full bands, but a very nice looking coin.
Actually, I think that they're quite beautiful. The coins have depth in their strike and although not razor sharp it is a fitting tribute to the...
But a diminished proof would only sell for a dollar or even less.
Yeah, it looks like a proof coin to me and as such, is not graded by the steps as all of the proof coins are struck multiple times and this gives...
It looks fake to me. Is it a coaster or other large oversized disk?

This is my experience as well. It still says PROCESSING but I received a confirmation email confirming my order. I am curious if mine is in the...
I can tell the difference and I'm not a dealer... you just have to know the difference and be able to see it.
When I spoke to the Mint today, they said that the order will say "processing" until tomorrow. I received email confirming my order. You might...
my point to Spock was that you shouldn't dismiss these so quickly. When a classic design was offered in the past in a size close to the actual...
nice coins!
In fact, no. They sold these to order and the interest was so small that less than 20,000 coins sold in both UNC and Proof. Yet, these coins sell...
Go to the mint website and try to buy one... then tell me if it's sold out or not
my orders are confirmed now :happy:
yes, Spock, they sold out in 20 minutes
I disagree, Spock... but it's way too early to tell. Look at the 2008-W 1/4 oz Buffaloes for reference.
I sit corrected... thanks jwitten, and apologies to spock
