the gold 1 sounds nice. how much will it weigh ? 1/4 oz ?

 

Where are you getting $9.95 from?

 

No, it looks like it's gonna contain 3/4 of an ounce of gold so it will most likely be the size or close to the size of a regular Kennedy Half Dollar but it's gonna be in .9999 gold.

 

what will be the estimated price for 1 of these gold ones be ?

 

It is on the mint's facebook page; https://www.facebook.com/UnitedStatesMint

Thanks Caleb.

$9.95?? I'm a little shocked since these will have the higher profile obverse and typically this stuff goes for between $16 and $19 each.

I wonder if this profile is what's used on the regular coins?

 

$9.95 sounds good, but I'm concerned they will mint so many of these that the sets will be going for <$5 in a few years...

 

Opened my bag of 2014's and they are the standard profile.

The 4 coin set is way pricey. Not sure if I'll be getting it or not. Last years 2 coin Eagle set was only 40 dollars more for a bit more silver. What do you all think of the cost for the 4 coin set?

 

Thanks for the link!

It might be too much for you but it's about a $100 cheaper than I thought it might be! As such, I'll be in for multiple sets.

BTW, I'm pleased with the price if it holds.

 

Anyway to consolidate the 2 active threads on this subject?

 

Just ignore one?

 

Or both.

 

And miss the chance to double your post count?? No way!!

 

I always liked quality over quantity

 

I think the mintage will be so high there won't be any gains in price. I'll probably get 1 set just to have it.

 

Considering clad commemorative halves have been priced around $20.00 each by the mint the last few years, I'd say this price for 4 90% silver is actually quite remarkable.

 

my guess for 4 coin silver set might be cost us $99.95 at least.

as for 3/4 ounce gold coin. my guess is $1,249.95 each. based on $1,300.00 to $1,350.00 per ounce.

as for 2 coin clad general circulation set at $9.95 each. or $4.98 per coin. i would avoid buying this set.

what is your guess?.
