<p>[QUOTE="krispy, post: 855661, member: 19065"]Last year's Lincoln C&C set sold out 50,000 units in 3.5 days and has maintained it's price around 2x retail. I feel that once an issue goes over 50,000 it's too high. Read elaine1970's threads on Up To Date Mintages and other US Mint modern gold and silver issue coins, she tracks retail prices and mintages from the secondary market and CDN. Modern silver commems almost always fizzle over time. Look at the Louis Braille and Ben Franklin already... Louis Braille was the first US coin with braille type and not many people care about special features. The list goes on with failing commems. Now, the FS gold coins have really, really small mintages. Read Yakpoo's FS coin threads, he's avid about them. But! there is still a very small interest being paid to them due to the ugly designs and unfamiliarity with the personages on them...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
