Housing markets will signal recovery when the 30 year intrest rates rise above 6%. The Gov. has stated that they will not raise intrest rates unitl the unemployment rates drop below 6.5%. Gold will remain high until these tipping points are reached.

Hi George. Did you do well with the sale of your First Spouse coin?

Sad to say affordability rears it’s ugly head more and more often these days. The gold commemorative coins are still relatively reasonably priced with only 0.295 oz gold content. I’m looking forward to the 2014 Baseball and 2015 US Marshals coins.

1/2 or 1/4 ounce coins would be a smart way for the mint to go to make Gold & Platinum anniversary and special issue sets more accessable to the average collector. I do recall the 2 coin 1/2 oz. 10th ann. plat. set released around the $2k level. Is this within reach of the average collecor?

With the price of metals rising how about 1 oz Gold coins with a 40% or 60% silver mix? What about 100% copper coin for the presidential $1 proof series?

Aside all this, we collect for the beauty of the coins within our personal affordablity range, right?

Platinum eagle 10th used 1/2 oz coins to lower the cost, might do the same in 2016 for the gold 30th. I wonder how the silver $1 would look if it were gold instead. Hmmm…
Housing in SoCal has already started recovering, Oct numbers indicate.
I like the gold buffalo best.

The Ann sets will be expensive, Assuming Gold will hold or go higher.

With large US debt and Europe struggling with their debt I am in the group that Gold will be at $2 to 2.5k in 2013 – 2014. However, when the housing breaks loose in 2015 – 2016 Gold will return to the $1 to $1.5k levels.

For the Investor, Low Buffalo mintage levels are very attractive.

Buffalo 10th and Eagle 30th anniversaries will be in 2016. Start saving your money, it’s going to be expensive.

No mention of a special Buffalo 2 coin set or anniversary buffalo either!!

Definitley excited for the west point two coin set.. The proof and burnished silver eagle already comes from West Point so I wonder if it will only have one coin unique to the set, a reverse proof. Hopefully they will have both coins unique to the set and they will come up with something cool.

“”Of the published releases, one scheduled item in particular stands out as a product likely to garner attention. It is labeled the “American Eagle West Point Two-Coin Silver Set,” although its final product name is yet to be determined.””

timing it all for the least amt of shipping’s: i will wait to order the mint set, proof set, silver proof set, and the first two rolls of quarters along with the West Point silver eagles set,
then later in the year, the kennedy half rolls and the last 3 sets of quarter rolls.
but that ohio design tho hahahahaha

anyway, thats what ill be hoping to buy

thanks coin news!

so who thinks prices will rise, stay the same or go down?

im guessing… stay the same. w/ the exception of silver and gold and platinum. they will fluctuate.

Interesting that they are creating another 2 coin Eagle set with this one coming from West Point. It shows a 1 month ordering period like this years set. Both coins will probably be unique to the set this time. Will be interesting to see what the final mintage will be on that one. Maybe the nice thing about the set is that it has a proof eagle in it and collectors will need it to complete their sets. I could see the demand for the 2012 set increasing as a result of this
set being created. You also have another coin added to the reverse proof series.
