Who wants to bet the mint won't lower the prices even though the price of gold has dropped?
That's what I meant, but I didn't know sleepers had to increase in value suddenly. I guess suddenness is relative.
I hadn't noticed that. I wonder if that bidder reads CoinTalk.
Very strange. The bid was $75 when I started this thread. Now it's $51.
Maybe they'll get there eventually, like they did with listing grades in titles. I'm surprised that NGC and PCGS don't add that information to the...

What would that accomplish and why would you pay them a fee to do it?
But my collection consists entirely of 20th Anniversary ASE sets bought at issue price directly from the mint! (just kidding)
If the intrinsic value of the coin is less than its monetary value, then it's fiat currency and it doesn't matter whether it's made of platinum or...
Can someone who opposes fiat money and supports Norfed please explain to me why a one ounce coin made of pure copper (worth 20 cents on today's...
