<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 685278, member: 19065&quot;]Several threads already started on these 5 oz. America the Beautiful quarter dollar bullion coins... sure there will be more to address this new series in coming days...</p><p><br /></p><p>&amp;quot;Ready?&amp;quot; you asked... Well, people<i> already</i> buy, collect and pay some premiums for the 10 oz. Australian bullion coins. They even sell a 1 kilo piece. 5 oz. partly seems like a concession to have something similar yet different, more affordable than a size and design in 10 oz. or 1 kilo coined rounds for the collectors of US special coin products. In that op ed article you linked to he used the word &#039;novelty&#039;, I don&#039;t see how this is a surprising notion given this piece nor amongst collectors and investors of any thing else they purchase for collections or investments. </p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m curious about the face value of these proposed 5 oz. America the Beautiful bullion version quarter dollar coins. It is to bear the quarters design and inscription &amp;quot;quarter dollar&amp;quot; as the face value, 0.25¢, per <a href="http://www.coinnews.net/coin-legislation/hr-6184-americas-beautiful-national-parks-quarter-dollar-coin-act-of-2008/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.coinnews.net/coin-legislation/hr-6184-americas-beautiful-national-parks-quarter-dollar-coin-act-of-2008/" rel="nofollow">H.R. 6184</a>, yet it will contain 5 oz of silver bullion. Why not a face value of $5 per the 5 oz.? I am aware of the $5 bullion and commems already bearing the $5 denomination. I ask because it seems odd to allow 5 oz. of bullion to be marked less than just 1 oz of silver bullion as in the ASE, which has a face value of $1. Is this correct?</p><p><br /></p><p>Maybe the 5 oz. coin will be like large print books for aging eyes to appreciate. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
