Limited to 25,000 and officially named the National Purple Heart Hall of Honor 2022 Colorized Silver Dollar, the U.S. Mint started selling the coin on March 24.
It lasted for a little over 24 hours before selling out. That would have happened sooner if not for the dollar’s initial household order limit of one.

Good observation Kaiser. I missed out on buying this coin due to lack of interest. However, I will probably pick it up in a few years when the herd moves to the next shiny object and the price drops.

Major, there are some sources for time series graphs displaying the price history of US coins. The most comprehensive free online source for this information is the PCGS Coin Facts, PCGS Price History which displays interactive plots of how coin prices change over time on the secondary market for PCGS graded coins. (Note: The prices listed in the PCGS Price Guide are average dealer asking prices for PCGS-graded coins. The prices are compiled from various sources including dealer ads in trade papers, dealer fixed price lists and website offerings, significant auctions, and activity at major coin shows.

East Coast Guru, These coins are still available from the US Mint Website. I just received three of them myself.

The colorized PH?

Cha-ching 🙂

Makes up from the Mint charging me for shipping even though I was in loyalty program for free shipping 😐

Rooster

The prices are solid for sure. With only 25k mintage the price should stay strong.

Rich

Agree Rooster, the prices for the Colorized Purple Heart (current sales figure = 24,422) are even stronger than the Colorized Basketball HOF (final mintage = 25,719) Silver Dollar.

Rooster

Rich: I never bought the colorized basketball coins. I liked this Purple Heart so I went back and snagged more before they closed it. That medal means so much to so many people.

Rooster

As good as I have done reading the tea leaves, I found bourbon a better alternative.

Rooster

That works too. Keep it just under the jitter factor and ride the wave.

At least one online dealer is touting the Purple Heart Colorized Silver Dollar as “One of the Hottest Mint Products of 2022.” Some representative sale prices are $175 for ungraded OGP/COA, $295 for graded PR-69, and $395 for graded PR-70.

Rich

Sir Kaiser, my sentiments exactly. There are only a handful of modern Commemorative Proof Silver Dollars that command extremely higher prices for the Proof 70 grade compared to Proof 69 or ungraded in original mint packaging. Here is the list based on the current PCGS Price Guide – 1996-P $1 High Jump: PR-70 = $7,500 & PR-69 = $42 1996-P $1 Paralympic: PR-70 = $3,750 & PR-69 = $47 1996-P $1 Rowing: PR-70 = $2,650 & PR-69 = $46 1996-P $1 Tennis: PR-70 = $2,000 & PR-69 = $48 2000-P $1 Leif Ericson: PR-70 = $975 & PR-69 = $58… Read more »
