<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CentDime, post: 271785, member: 7297&quot;]Elaine, I think it is important to look at each coin as a seperate issue with these. For instance the UNC is a high mintage of you compare it to past commemorative coins, but the proof coins are not high mintage.</p><p><br /></p><p>None of the gold eagle proofs have sold at less than 20,000 mintage.</p><p>Also I believe none of the commemorative proofs have sold at less than 20,000.</p><p><br /></p><p>The only proof gold coin to have less than 20,000 was the reverse proof eagle if my numbers are accurate.</p><p><br /></p><p>So that is why I see the proofs being the ones to collect if one wants this series.</p><p><br /></p><p>I agree than the UNC will probably drop in mintage in later years unless gold prices soar, and the proof should hold over 20,000 if people return to buying at normal splits. The problem this year is the mint minted the coins with the two options split 50/50. Had they done it 35/65 then this would be more of a normal release.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
