<p>[QUOTE=&quot;PeacePeople, post: 1904294, member: 20082&quot;]If you can forget about the finger pointing and who is at fault for what, just look at what they are and the demand they have created and destroyed.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve purchased some of these early, Debt and Death, Slave Queen, Freedom Girl, and Trivium.&nbsp; I paid the market rate at the time of release and never really looked back.&nbsp; I haven&#039;t sold any, just kept them as a stash, and just several of each.&nbsp; For the most part they all did get a good bump in the market price once they stopped minting them.&nbsp; Those that didn&#039;t get the nice bump early suffered from the &quot;separation&quot; minting that was done by MM after CD left, Slave Queen and Freedom Girl.&nbsp; They didn&#039;t get a fast appreciation because MM made many more of these than D&amp;D and Trivium, but they both have come back in a decent way, with respect to current premiums.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Here is an example.&nbsp; At the end of Dec 2012, I bought a couple tubes of Freedom Girl from Provident, they were $21.95 each.&nbsp; I alerted a friend of mine that they had about 400 left and he saw the potential and bought all they had.&nbsp; He then sold them on ebay for $29.95 to $31.95, and I think he still has a few up for sale there.&nbsp; You might want to keep in mind that the original release price of FR was in the $30 range, and customers waited for MM to deliver.&nbsp; Most of those orders were placed in Dec 2012 and Jan 2013 (if my memory is correct) and many didn&#039;t get delivery until March or April, maybe even May.&nbsp; Then the split happened, and MM began to mint more, Freedom Girl and Slave Queen, I believe it was June and spot was in the $18 to $22 range (again, memory) with a $3 premium.&nbsp; So if you take that backwards, original release was $30, second release in June/July was $22 which held until the Jan 1st of 2014.&nbsp; The Slave Queen was about the same money back in June/July, and I haven&#039;t really kept track of what they have done recently.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now let&#039;s move forward to true split and coins that were minted by both MM and Golden State Mint under the SBSS brand.&nbsp; Please keep in mind I&#039;m going off wrote memory, so the dates may be off a bit, but you&#039;ll get the picture. </p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ll post that info later, I have to do something for a little while.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
