You can't argue with the original packaging that's on them. Got all 3 at the same time and for a buck each.
yup the ones in the original packaging are going for a premium these days because so many people just took em out and spent them there history now specifically coin history.
Yes, it was a promotion for General Mills. It was hard to find a box of Cherrios on the shelf at the time.
If you take it out of the package, it's nothing. (1 cent) I had one of these for years. (GF ate the cereal). But when I finally fished it out the coin pack was empty. I must have given up and cracked it out.
There may be a chance I still have mine in the basement . Anyone want to help find it ? Like a treasure hunt .
By the time I get a chance to find mine in the whole basement, the bubble will burst and people will realize that it's just one cent .
I don't remember how much my box of cereal cost me but I'm sure it was more than a buck when I got mine. But I also got the cereal.
Does anyone know when these became so popular and do you think the " Bubble will burst" and they will be worth only a Cent ?
Not with the Cents. Once you remove it from the packaging it's just a one cent coin. If a TPG removes it you can refer to the label on the slab.
The bubble may never burst. P. T. Barnum was known for the phrase "There's a sucker born every minute"
