I cannot believe that the Perth Mint is doing that with the Kookaburras. Imagine if the US Mint started to produce more of the 25th anniversary...
I am not a flipper, but if I was one, I would be really unhappy with how the Mint is handling this years ASE set. No frenzy leading up to or on...

Very funny clip. The handsome woman line was spot on. :D. TC
It will be interesting to see how many of these sell with an unlimited mintage in that one month window. True ASE collectors will know of this...
Shop them around at a few local coin shows. The prices have been coming down lately so you may want to act sooner than later especially if you...
It is all going to my kids as well and will happen in the most tax avoidant way possible. TC
Thanks Joe. I sent NGC an email last year about a Type B quarter I cherried off of TT and was quoted $10 plus shipping. I guess their prices...
A one month time limited sales period means all qualify for First Strike/Early Release/First Release designation. This will not make the flippers...

Is is already in a NGC holder graded MS64 so it will only cost me $10 for the additional attribution there. TC
Coin is now in hand. No doubt about the DDR now. :smile TC[ATTACH][ATTACH][ATTACH]
Next time try using a hair dryer on it, and it should pop right out. ;) TC
I would be wary of "protective plastic" and buy an airtite for it then. If you cannot get a direct fit in that size, then just get the closest one...
1964 Kennedy half dollar given to me by my mother when I was a kid...still got it. TC
I bought a 2 ounce version of the same coin, and it came in an airtite directly from the Perth mint. I am guessing your coin might as well. Wait...
I have never sold a coin, so am just summarizing what I have heard from others. Price guides are just that, "guides" and most buyers do not want...
My gut feeling is that because these are not widely distributed we will not see many circulated examples, which means that many of these will be...
Great write-up Ken. Your classic commemorative collection seems to be coming together quite nicely. TC
