<p>[QUOTE="Kirkuleez, post: 1524142, member: 36864"]I don't know about the long term investment potential, but I have been collecting the spouces (BU/PR) since the beginning. At first, when the mint stated that production would be limited to a run of 20K, ebay flippers had a field day and the prices went crazy for them. About two months later, they were selling at spot. Today, I don't think the mint even sells out of these coins. If you think that investing in gold is a good idea, keep getting them. I just don't think that they will ever command a high numismatic premium. Personally I like the fact that there will be so few left after all of the ones that went into the melting pots. I am curious as to what the survival rate will be in 100 years. Perhaps then, there will be a premium, but not much before.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
