I have a whole cemetery of OGP coffins filled with dead bodies. Some ‘deader’ [sic] than others.

Antonio, here is a new 1 oz Silver 2025 Pope Leo XIV Commemorative Round from SilverTowne (available Jun 11, 2025).

Agreed.

Craig,

Agreed, most coin designs look their best in gold…sadly, I doubt I’ll ever see much more than I have now. My 1991 1/2 oz. proof is likely the most I’ll be able to afford. Wanted the 1 oz. coin, but being a working stiff, could only shell out the $400 or so for the half-ounce. Probably no premium for the proof these days, but it sure is pretty in its OGP (really nice back then). Even at bullion prices, it’s worth a lot more now!

Major D, that’s another favorite of mine. I notice they don’t circulate much, at least not in NC.

“Mine still inthe mint capsules!”

Same here. Like Va Bob, I do like my OGP coffins.

Two (nail-bitten) thumbs up!

I did get a 1/2z proof plus the BU set. Another mint “promise “ rejected annual Buffalo fractional. Maybe now a set double 2026 St. and BUFFALO fractionals. A set limited to deep pockets say $19,999 a set. Mintage decided to Ryder from exile…

Super nice Rick! Mine still inthe mint capsules! I also have a set I think it was 2 1/2z a Buffalo w a Pt or St. not sure. Or a St. and. pt? Time to do a real search Buried in my black hole.
