    I'll pass, ugly design. It might have a low mintage were the mint is trying to keep up with the silver eagle for bullion demand. But in the end, if no one likes the design who is going to buy it in the future.

    it's not ugly or not. many or few. check the 1996 atlanta olympics. few people had it. the prices were very high.

    this braille silver total maximum mintage is only 400,000. 25,000 pc set aside for a special set.
    it should be better than the lincoln dollar. which did not sell out.

    It certainly is not much on an aesthetic level. It seems that they could have come up with a much more attractive design. I'll see in a few months, I may pick up an unc.
    The perspective on the table does not match the bookshelf.

    the more ugly the better. because the mintage will be very low.

    i predict the uncirculated version of braille silver dollar will be around 60,000.

    Eh... the Lincoln dollar emanated a strong "buy me!" vibe that this one just doesn't for me. It's not all that exciting a design really and just doesn't motivate me to care about owning one.

    I wouldn't bet on this becoming significantly more valuable than the Lincoln dollar... mintage will be somewhat lower but demand for it will be much lower. These days modern comemmoratives are minted in basically the quantity the market will bear and there are very few modern commemoratives that are significantly more valuable than their initial issue price. (Because I'm sure someone will mention it... let me point out that the 2001 Buffalo dollar is clearly the exception, not the rule... Mint underestimated the demand for that one big time. Any of the gold comemmoratives have only increased in value because of their gold content.)

    the good or bad result of the modern commemoratives can be known within a month. that is to say during the pre-issue period.
