2009 Gold Buffalo - Bullion

Has anybody heard whether or not they have released the gold buffalo bullion coin yet??? They were supposed to release it early last week and I have not heard otherwise. Thanks.

I've just seen the pre-sales on bullion dealer websites. Gainesville claims to be shipping at the end of October. Apmex expecting to ship: "22nd or as late as October 30th." Northwest says the Mint will supply them after Oct 25th. Pretty much the same song and dance from whomever is preparing to sell them if/when released. I'm just waiting for the Proof version myself.

 

Hey...they need time to cherry-pick!

 

Robert chambers on coin vault was selling some last night. Lets not talk about the price but he said he had a few of them in stock slabbed by NGC and was expecting more , probably today. That guy Shaun had rejoined him now. What a team.

 

Sorry if I missed it somewhere else, but is there a chance the buffalo bullion might be low supply as well as the proof?

 

We will need elaine to chime in for this one probably, but she was listing (estimated?) mintage figures for 2009 AGB bullion at "71,500" on one of the updated mintage threads already.

Haven't heard much from her lately. It would be nice to have some insider information. I'm afraid I better go ahead and get 'em both to be on the safe side. For some reason I'm afraid they both may be scarce. Gut feeling.

 

o/k. i'm still here.

bullion buffalo:
2006 -- 337,012
2007 -- 136,503
2008 -- 189,500
2008w -009,427 - key and rare
2009 -- 071,500 - not final, might exceed 100,000 +.

proof buffalo:
2006w - 252,000
2007w - 060,000
2008w - 019,591 - key
2009w - ? ? ? ? ? - offer price might be around $1,360.00.

i would choose proof buffalo. because right now there is a high premium for proof version. the eagle proof version around 60% premium higher than unc. secondly, it might be a low mintage. but not lower than 2008w. thirdly, the pre-sale certified proof70 exceeded $3,000.00 right now. i think the certified proof69 or not certified with mint box and c.o.a. should be around $1,800.00 to $2,200.00 or even more if the mintage is low. and lastly, the offer period might be short. since 2010 is coming. who knows?. that is my opinion.

 

Thanks elaine!

 

Yes, Thank you Elaine!

 

you both are very welcome.

 

And thank YOU Elaine!

 

By the way, thoughts on 2009 Gold buffalo 1 oz or the 1 oz Gold Buffalo proof for a few hundred more and why?

 

A solid vote for the proof, due to future numismatic value, limited mintage (hopefully), pure beauty

unc are already reported at 71,500

but I think you can afford both so don't miss out on at least one of each, you can always flip it later

 

lol, you think so?

How do you know my finances?

Haha I'm just joking with ya. But I think it's a waste to do both , I say one or the other + some more silver.

 

Yes, I think so, and I know 'of' your finances based on your openness in the threads and on your YouTube channel and your eBay account which you've shared. Of course I know not of your financial limits. Yet, I primarily base my thoughts/advice today on how freely you throw money around on things you are hardly versed in before you put your money down. You only seem to learn after the fact and after successive rounds getting trounced by the forum members that respond to your threads. At any rate, you probably can't go wrong with these two gold pieces (initially), especially since bullion prices keep climbing in record territories, plus on another thread you just had some thought to 'get in it' if gold is rising. (lol) Since you do have the finances for this kind of stuff, you should buy these both: proof and unc, before they have any chance to become numismatically valued higher by collectors than they will initially sell for. Like I said you can always flip the one (or both) that don't turn out to be a key or numismatically worth more than melt. And if you get them in hand but don't like them and they do happen to have some numismatic value in future, then maybe you'll make a few extra bucks off them when you unload them.

I also advise you to buy them as I've been watching you currently only buy older coins and high priced moderns and/or pricey keys which have already attained their numismatic values before you got into coins. If you get these now you can get in before the price head up (possibly) instead of finding out later you need to shop around for the lowest price to obtain one or both for your 'collection' at elevated costs, potentially from dubious sellers. But I also see that you only respond to coins with big ticket prices, those which other people define as keys, rarities, or desire for their hard built collections. It seems you enjoy the hunt for the lowest priced example you can lay your hands on in hopes others will praise you for the 'deal' you put together so the coin becomes a catalyst for attention. Doesn't do much for me really how you obtained them, speaks not to a passion for coins in the least, only a passion for attention and boasting through a guise of investment based buying approaches. Just my observations to date.

DO go get more silver as well. hya: All the best to you BNB.

 

Ok, so silver, 2 gold buffs, sounds good !

 

if you like, was just my full thoughts on it tailored for you. hya:

 

haha, hey what kind of coins do you deal? I'll be in CT Dec and would love to visit your shop!

 

Not a dealer, just a modest collector.
