No details yet, but it does NOW shown on the schedule... What will the cost be.... 800.00 plus ? Guessing limit is 5 and total is 100K ? Make your guess...
The price schedule was already released. I think it was around $500 depending on price of gold at release time.
Thought they were going to be 1/2 ounce... Can't be that cheap... They charged 215 for 1/10 ounce dime...
Standing liberty will be a quarter ounce. Walking liberty, later in the year, will be the half-ounce.
Not that I care, as I can't afford one at the moment (saving up for something else), not to mention the coin will likely have mushy details like the gold Merc. Come on, they made 125K of them, full details shouldn't be that hard. (Not to mention the "we got full strikes 170 years ago on teeny tiny half dimes" thing that has been mentioned before)
Wonder if the TV sellers will load up on them like they did the Mercs? At last glance, they were still trying to unload them (at idiot prices, of course)
I have a few mercs in retro green holders. I will probably try flipping some raw ones to buy a 70 in retro to match my mercs.
I will wait to buy in a couple of years. I predict the same price drop as the Baseball HOF commems...
Original prices for gold HOF= $419-$429. Recent sales prices on gold HOF = about $450 raw. What drop are you talking about?
More than likely they will, maybe a scaled back order a little bit but I am pretty sure they sold enough of them that they came out ahead given their large markup. The Walker will be the interesting one with the highest price and whether or not the fatigue of watching them all spike and drop again will have set in for the last one
Okay, there was at least one gold commem that held a premium for at least a couple of years. More than one, actually, but they're a very small minority.
Very true and to be fair to the gold commems that's really true for basically all of the modern mint products besides the random thing here or there where it's known ahead of time that it'll be a hot product
If I buy any of these the Standing Liberty would be the one. After seeing images of the stuck coin I'm not so sure. The center of the shield is not well struck. Just happy I purchased the Dan Carr items. http://www.coinworld.com/news/us-co...quarter-centennial-west-point-mint-video.html
I was referring to the silver dollar baseball HOF coins that were up to $150 a couple of years ago. Now in proof you can find it for $55 to $60 It is a great coins and I would like to buy one, but the gold mercury dime will drop in price after this year if I go by trends.
Those cost $48-$52 from the mint... so STILL a better deal buying from the mint. I agree they are cheaper than they were on the secondary market... but mint price was cheapest.
Why does it alway have to come around to a discussion about what it cost to what it is now. I got into coins for the love, history and beauty. They should not be about how much I can make. Buy stocks or bullion if it's investing. BTW: I'm thinking $499 limit of 3.
From what happened with the 1/10 oz. Gold Mercury, I think the mint will set the household limit to 1 and charge around $550 for the 1/4 oz. of gold. That's a pretty high markup, but it's similar to the gold Mercury markup. Let's see if the coin companies call me again and offer me $100 to order the coin and ship it to them in the original mint box. The Standing Liberty Quarter happens to be one of my favorites, so we're going to see if we can put the money together to get one.
