Paid a bit of a premium for bullion rounds - possibly collectible in the future?

    So I paid $25/ozt for rounds this last week - a premium yes, but thought I'd share them. I'm hoping for a bit of numismatic value - but at this point, they're just bullion.

    I would only buy them after they were worn down to just a bullion round. And I am a republican.

    I'm... nope, I'm just not seeing any path for this thread that leads anywhere other than the cornfield.

    That's okay. Sir John [Barleycorn] proved the strongest man at last.

    They'll probably always be bullion, except to someone who would pay above it's melt value. I think the engraver (or computer) did a good job capturing Trump's likeness.

    These are NORFED Bernard Von Nothaus coins guys. They already have a nice premium attached ;)

    The proof and first day counterstamped ones have a very nice premium over issue already. Glad I got some :)

    If they really become valuable in the future, I or someone else will just make another pile of them.

    A private mint's own version of "quantitative easing" I suppose. :)

    The odd thing is Trump is selling his own coins too to raise campaign funds.
    Then talks about doubling your investment if the coin doubles in value.

    Thanks for the heads up. I just ordered a silver proof edition. Me ordering one probably insures it will never be worth anything over spot.

    That would be like me buying a snowblower - if I did, it probably won't snow much ever again.

    Got my Proof Edition a couple weeks ago. At time of purchase they said it may be as much as 30 days for shipping but shipped within a week. Price shipped was under $45.

    I have already got my moneys worth just showing it off, and I still got the coin:happy:. We will see if the Proof was worth paying the extra premium for but as of today I am happy.

    No where in any of the advertisement does it say it is endorsed by Trump and it doesn't use Trumps most famous slogan "Make America Great Again". Not sure if this means anything but thought I would mention it.
