Ah, but the FHG sold out in less than 4 minutes. Already being sold on eBay for twice the amount paid for it from the Mint. Someone has money, if not the majority of us.

Mum’s the word.

Maybe it’s just me, but I don’t think anyone would laugh at the value of your Au Proof collection. Best that no one in your neighbourhood knows what you enjoy collecting!

Kaiser,

But you’re still going to buy that Ag FH medal with privy for $4.1k from Pinehurst, right?

Kaiser,

Jackson Pollock’s ‘Free Form’ or a struggling artists rendition…hum? I think you’re right, as I’d go with the former (although I wouldn’t be able to afford the millions it would fetch). I am amazed at what people are willing to part with for a piece of shiny metal which the mint has decided to add a small privy to. The company you’re a fan of, Pinehurst Coins, offers a privy marked Ag FH medal on eBay for around $4k! For a medal. Now the question I have for you is, ‘After you rush over to eBay to procure that medal, at what price do you think it will be worth in 5 years?’

I’ll finish my comment above regarding the 83 FHS medal returns on the report… (Liar Liar)Pants on Fire..

If a bulk order of three roll sets is cancelled or returned unopened by a big boy or two, 385 is not surprising. Remember the recent Prez/Armed Services medal returns…

REB, my best guess scenario for tomorrow is that the first day sales of the FHG coins will mirror the sales of the FHS medals. With the HOL of 1, they should remain available for sale until the HOL is lifted after 24 hours, and then sell out shortly thereafter.

Dead on the mark, Sir Kaiser. As Antonio nailed it 10 hours ago with his humble opinion, “I wouldn’t be surprised if 49,996 is it and we can hold our breaths for years and no more medals will be offered.”

Agreed.

Wow, that’s crazy. Maybe I’m just that one remaining old guy shouting at the kids to get off my lawn. They just laugh and say, “Look at that relic. I bet he wastes his money on collecting coins”.
