Crazy Value for Hawaii Volcano Hockey Puck (NQ3)

Unfortunately it’s Canadian = much lower collector base. Pretty much true for all Canadian and other foreign coins.

[TD="align: right"]....only 115 more Acadia 5 ouncers were made and they don't sell close to $700. It's the design.[/TD]

 

Defiantly the design, plus it caught a lot of us by surprise when they sold out early. I had been watching the numbers thinking I had more time since they were minting a little over 17,000 prior to selling out on all the others. Now I want one at any cost, oops, did I say that, no I meant spot. Yeh, I want one at spot, maybe I'll pay a buck over spot, er, ...........

 

We can agree to disagree. I simply find the premium for the word "key" to be exceedingly strong in US numismatics. I have had in my hand all ATB 5 ouncers, and my personal preference is not Hawaii but other issues, but that is besides the point. I simply believe its because the Hawaii is now regarded as the "key" that is driving the price premiums, just like a 32d and 32s quarters have always been overpriced versus their rarity because they are the "keys".

Only way to know will be if they produce some at much lower mintages in the future. Then we will see how much value is in the design.

 

I hope those "new low mintages" happen next year, I like 3 of the 5.

 

I really like the Acadia puck but I'm originally from Maine and still spend many summer vacations in the Bar Harbor region. It is intersting to note that the Acadia puck is now selling on the bay for over $400 so it is also climbing in value.

 

unfortunately its canadian...i would like to flick you in the berries sir

 

The "berries" - is that a Canadian expression? lol Sorry just a fact. When I was a young collector, I was sure the low mintage Canadian silver dollars were sleepers, but alas, the demand never did materialize.

 

It ends tonight.....[TABLE="class: my_itl-iT"]

I already bought mine in September 2012 for $210 including shipping. It is nice to know that the Hawaii and Maine pucks are adding some value to my collection.

 

You should be extremely happy that your "F" key works properly.

 

even though i am the butt of this joke...i liked your comment....+1 to you sir
