[QUOTE="Mojavedave, post: 140177, member: 5270"]It seems as though some of you are going to miss out on a "Good Bet". The new $50 gold coins are going for $800.00 in proof from the mint, not $875. The mintage of 300,000. is not excesssive concidering the past American Eagle $ 50.00 coin mintages. Some of these and other gold coins have gone over the 1 million coin mintage. The thing that some may not have noticed, is that this new Buffalo coin is 99.99 % 24 K gold, whereas the American Eagle coins are designated as 91.67% gold, 3 % silver, and 5.33% copper. This in itself makes the Buffalo a unigue coin. Not to mention that this is the first, almost solid gold, and maybe the only one perfect gold coin that will be minted in the U.S. in the near future. I hesitate to say what these proof coins may be worth, if the price of gold should soar and they start melting them down. Dave - [email]Mojavedave1@msn.com[/email][/QUOTE]
