[QUOTE="CentDime, post: 190668, member: 7297"]Hi alhas, I have done a lot of study on these coins lately, and have come to the conclusion that the Platinum w UNC are not the same as the bullion coins but are UNC versions of the proof coins. That may seem obvious because that is what they are, but if you look at the platinum bullion coins those aren't the same as the proof as the reverse is different. So the platinum UNC w coins will be the ones to buy based on the general buying of the public in these types of coins. The best way to look at it is the commemorative series as I think those are what these coins will trade like. The mint makes two versions, proof and UNC. Everybody buys the proof buy less than half buy the UNC. Which coins in the modern Commemorative series are the ones that appreciated the most? The UNC because of the much smaller mintage. The 2006 W UNC gold and platinum eagles had very small mintages this year relative to the proof. They were purchased just as the public buys the modern commemoratives, so it should follow that the ones to buy are the UNC versions. And it looks like to 2006W UNC are already appreciating to levels similar to what happens with the commemoratives. My guess for this year is the 2007W UNC eagles will have a larger mintage than the 2006W, but not by a lot. The exception may be the 2007W silver eagle UNC, if they do 350,000 or so that coin will sell for higher than the 2006W.[/QUOTE]
