They should have taken notes from the gold Kennedy and put a limit on the silver Kennedy.

This coin should have been an exclusive as a first time minted in gold. It also should have had a mintage limit and should have been 1oz (cheat). I didn’t get one and I’m still not going to. The HOF’s were the best. I got 3.

The drop in the price of gold has caused the slowdown.
It should be the other way around but it never is.

I agree that this one should have had a mintage limit and the mint should now announce a last date to order. The desire/mintage will rise to meet the final date. The aftermarket value will rise on the final mintage date as well. It will Not until the final mintage of this coin is known.

Unreal. Tons and tons of people standing on lines at all the mints waiting for their chance at buying one, Standing in line all night, When most wouldn’t get anything.. I think the problem was with all the “hoopla”. I think the mint just should have sold this coin without any big production on line or by phone, And it might have done better. People wanted the very first coin, Signed with all the bells and whistles.When folks knew they couldn’t get all the bells and whistles, This thing just dropped dead in its tracks. What a shame to commemorate a great President ( imho)..Maybe also instead of a 1 ounce instead of a 3/4 ounce hurt it a bit. Anyway, It is a gorgeous piece.

Looks like the sales of this one dropped another 543 units since last week. It’s amazing how “cold” this coin got so quickly. With all the excitement at the beginning, I thought this was going to be a repeat of the HOF coins.
