<p>[QUOTE="krispy, post: 850137, member: 19065"]Okay, I've seen you blab the 4M Boy Scout stat a couple times tonight, pushing this number isn't enough to prove the BSA coin will do better than other modern silver commem dollars from the US Mint. Mintage alone will kill it in the coin community. How many Boy Scout Merit Badges are there? There's but one Coin Collecting Merit Badge to acquire. Many of those 4M will never achieve it and some of those may not even attempt it. Many of your 4M wont last in Scouts long enough for one reason or another to achieve it either. Too many factors will topple your big number theory Danr. The cards are stacked against modern mint silver commems. Sure it will sell out very quickly and there will be some period in which the BSA enjoys the spot light, but the flip wont bring you as much as you think it may and the discerning coin collectors who want this coin will be after the graded ones if they collect moderns.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
