<p>[QUOTE="Jaelus, post: 3697898, member: 46237"]I don't think they should limit the number of commemoratives per year to one (or any number). After all, some years it would make sense to issue a few of them. Look how the 2016 mercury, SLQ, and WLH got messed up because of the arbitrary cap on the number of silver commemoratives they could issue. That ended up with them striking them as bullion and then changing the sizes and it went off the rails. <i>Obviously</i>, that year they needed to make all three as silver commemoratives and they couldn't make it happen.</p><p><br /></p><p>But on the whole regarding collector fatigue, what they need to do better is to <i>edit</i>. If they issued 5 commemoratives in a year and they were all commemorating significant things and the artistry and quality were there, I'd have no problem buying all of them. Even <i>one</i> coin commemorating something that is a stretch to be significant and/or with yet another poor low relief design is one coin too many.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
