I don't know........I said, in another thread, that I was on the fence with this one but the more I look at that eagle reverse the more I like it.
Will there be a feeding frenzy for this coin like the HST Coin and Chronicle or will it sell like the gold Kennedy? American Liberty 2015 High Relief Gold Coin will be available for sale on July 30, 2015, at 12 noon (ET).
I'm not seeing it. 50000 is a pretty high mintage for an expensive gold coin. I also don't see this one gaining the momentum of the 2009 UHR, with all its "as St. Gaudens intended" mystique. What does everybody else think?
115,000. I've assumed their durable premium in the aftermarket stems from the design's background and popularity, not their mintage. (Witness the nearly-dead market for First Spouse gold, with most mintages under 10K.)
I believe this is a collector coin and not bullion. Shouldn't the post be moved to a different forum?
I really don't care for a short haired Miss Liberty or the way the leaves are arranged around her head . Pass .
Dunno - for me, a bullion coin is a piece that is produced according to demand, not with a limited mintage. But then dozens of topics in BI should not be here. Images are here by the way: http://catalog.usmint.gov/american-liberty-2015-high-relief-gold-coin-UH8.html Christian
I want one. However, (and I can't believe I'm saying this) I hate the cheesy packaging. The 2009 UHR packaging was over the top...I'm not suggesting that. I think this coin would look nice in a leather/wood box like the 1 Oz Buffalo.
Isn't Liberty anyone? It's just a symbol of Mercia the worst design I think are the Late large Cents but that was 100+ years ago. The early Large cents Caped Bust and Draped are decent.
Well, there's this morning's reminder that I'm old: I'm sitting here giggling at a post that complains about short hair on Liberty -- and then quotes John Lennon in the sig.
Another gold slug from the Mint. If you want one just wait a few months. You can get that PCGS PR70DCAM FIRST STRIKE for less than issue price. Especially if gold keeps tanking. These will perform just like the Kennedys. Early on there will be just enough made to satisfy the Mints "special" customers, a few "big boy" flippers and a few regular customers that want just one. Then they will go on BO until November 14, 2015. Don't fall into the trap that these will be hard to get. Make those flippers eat their own lunch.
