Get on their email list so you know what they a releasing next. I bought a few proof $1 silver baseball coins that doubled in value if the boys leave them unopened! http://www.usmint.gov/batterup/?action=curvedcoin I bought a $5 gold proof for myself for the safe. It has doubled in value as well so if you grab the unique coins you can do better than the bullion coins. They will show the mintage limit and some are small enough to see a quicker return. They start selling at noon eastern on the release date and some do sell out in hours. |

I have a 2015 American Buffalo and it's a beautiful coin. Proofs are worth the extra money! They are buying in bulk. If you pay by wire or check then JM is cheaper. The US Mint is $1590 + $4.95 shipping (2nd day air) with a credit card. The box they show is from the US Mint which they also include and the quality is very nice. For the $5 you will have a receipt from the US Mint which may improve the resale value (by at least that much) if you ever sell the coin. If you didn't catch that, the US Mint ships via UPS rather than the USPS. Pretty sad. Are these gifts? If not, why aren't you buying that Mini-14?! |

If the kids aren't going to be collectors then, I agree, it has no value. |

If you didn't catch that, the US Mint ships via UPS rather than the USPS. Pretty sad. You reckon that's because of the APWU? Are these gifts? If not, why aren't you buying that Mini-14?! These are gifts. Trying to force some savings onto the kids. Thanks for the info though. I would expect the US Mint to use the USPS. Not sure why. UPS is union, too but must be more reliable. I'm back again. I'm looking at the 2016 American Eagle in Uncirculated. JM Bullion is asking $1,312.49, check payment, versus the US Mint asking $1,525.00. The package is nicer, but is it $212 nicer? http://catalog.usmint.gov/american-e...navid=xsellpdp http://www.jmbullion.com/2016-1-oz-american-gold-eagle/ You're right about the proofs being nice. The kids, and wife, got American Buffalo proofs year before last. Last year it was Chinese Pandas. This year each are getting bars with their Lunar Calendar animal thereon. Here's the 'Year of the Snake' bar: http://www.jmbullion.com/1-oz-pamp-s...nake-gold-bar/ Maybe I'll add the Ruger Mark III Hunter to my Christmas list. If they don't have the same packaging, they are buying them in bulk. That's not a bad thing. They are just repackaging them. Save the money if you don't value the packaging which isn't as nice as others anyway. The gold bars are nice. I might have to get one of those! The Ruger Mark III's are nice tack drivers. Let me know what price you get before you buy it. About the cheapest I've seen is in the $520 range. http://shop.buckshotonline.com/produ...grip-stainless Of course, that doesn't have the thousands of dollars worth of tack driving enhancements that Harry's had, but one can't have everything! |

A few proofs and some platinum, too. You might want to compare prices at least for US coins. Will do. Didn't even know there was a US Mint store. Get on their email list so you know what they a releasing next. I bought a few proof $1 silver baseball coins that doubled in value if the boys leave them unopened! http://www.usmint.gov/batterup/?action=curvedcoin I bought a $5 gold proof for myself for the safe. It has doubled in value as well so if you grab the unique coins you can do better than the bullion coins. They will show the mintage limit and some are small enough to see a quicker return. They start selling at noon eastern on the release date and some do sell out in hours. Looking at the proof 1oz American Buffalo, JM Bullion, with free shipping, is about $5 cheaper than the US Mint. And JM Bullion provides a nice little box! http://catalog.usmint.gov/american-b...3683&start= 1 http://www.jmbullion.com/2016-1-oz-p...ffalo-box-coa/ Or am I reading something wrong. I have a 2015 American Buffalo and it's a beautiful coin. Proofs are worth the extra money! They are buying in bulk. If you pay by wire or check then JM is cheaper. The US Mint is $1590 + $4.95 shipping (2nd day air) with a credit card. The box they show is from the US Mint which they also include and the quality is very nice. For the $5 you will have a receipt from the US Mint which may improve the resale value (by at least that much) if you ever sell the coin.

Was told that the $212 also got me a 'mint mark' which, as I see, is not on the coins sold by JM Bullion. As I don't think the kids will ever be 'collectors', the mint mark doesn't do much good. I've never heard of that but looking at the two photos, the West Point mint mark is missing from the JM Bullion coin. That's odd that they would mint a bullion coin without a mint mark. If the kids aren't going to be collectors then, I agree, it has no value. The lady at the US Mint talked as though the mint mark was most of the reason for the additional cost. Collectors like mint marks. Oh well. |
