<p>[QUOTE=&quot;green18, post: 453914, member: 10103&quot;]Had a chance to buy the 2001 American Buffalo back when it was first issued.....waited too long and it sold in a matter of days.&nbsp; Mintage for the unc. is 227,131.&nbsp; Rather high figure and back a few years ago they were going for in the neighborhood of $300.&nbsp; Today on e-bay one can be had (buy it now) for $180, free shipping included.&nbsp; Still a little high for a rather common and not so rare coin.&nbsp; </p><p>Now look at Franklin the Scientist commemorative.&nbsp; Unc. mintage is 58,000.&nbsp; These coins sold quickly as well but not in a matter of days like the Buffalo Commemorative.&nbsp; One can be had on e-bay (buy it now) for $36.&nbsp; Why the large price difference?&nbsp; Demand and what people are willing to pay.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
