No interest at all on my part.

Aftermarket starting to see sold pre-sales. Not too far over the retail though. In any news I believe this is good for the Sac coming out next week, almost $500 cheaper than this one.Is it? How many less than 5K will they be offering for sale? Is Sac really more popular than Superman?
I never understood why the Mint would have no Product Limit on these when they have a Mintage Limit. Usually it's the other way around.
Any sense on whether they might be holding 5K back here for inclusion in a 3 coin set? Any insight at all on why they would not release for sale everything that they want to sell?
I like Superman
Didnt really read the comics
watched the old Christopher reeve movies
liked the dean cain version
caught smallville from time to time
still watch the reruns w/ george reeves on saturday
Also... I never was a big fan of the Sacajawea dollar as a whole
Thought the Cherio Dollar 'pattern' was neat
read about the original dozen produced in gold, though that was neat (they went to space and back)
actually excited to see a public gold offering...
...sooo to me, a coin collector , the gold sacajawea dollar is more popular that this superman coin.
Re: Do you tip your LCS guy, or at a show?
The tipping mentality in this country is over the top and insane. It is not an entitlement.

Re: Is this toning Attractive? (New photos added from my Motorola Edge Phone)
To some, yes, to others, no.
I tend to lean towards no.
Just because something has "a lot of color" doesn't mean it's good.
I find the dimes in that set to be far more attractive than the halves.

Thank you, everyone, for the feedback. Please feel free to provide any specific thoughts on what you preferred about the older layout versus the new. This feedback is being shared directly with our team and will help us continue improving our services.We upgraded our cert verification page to prepare for an exciting upcoming announcement. I understand the new look may take some getting used to, but in the meantime, please keep the open dialogue coming!
Thanks Heather, I'm glad you guys are looking at this feedback. I have a few more suggestions.
For an example verification page with Trueviews like https://www.pcgs.com/cert/52659044 there should also be a link to https://www.pcgs.com/trueview/52659044 where we can download all of the images also.
I don't know why the NFC notice is so prominent and occupies the main focal area of the page. This information should be minimized and de-emphasized, in my opinion. I'm not saying the information isn't useful or important, but I'm not sure this message deserves top billing, and is more appropriately displayed as a footnote somewhere.
The PCGS Coin number should link to Coinfacts.

Are you ordering the Superman coin or medals tomorrow? Post your order experience or intentions here if you wish. I’m in for the gold coin and 2 1/2 oz version if I can get an order in! I predict a sellout of both issues. Pure speculation but soon the results will be known.

I will join the ever growing group of collectors and dealers who are protesting this GTG and will NOT be providing my guess.
Thanks Mark for the inspiration and for stepping forward in instigating this rebellion.
😲
I wasn’t looking for or expecting any partners in protest.
My personal feelings aside, I realize that such threads can still be fun and even educational.

Re: Three Day GTG Experiment - Coin Three Ends Late, 7-29, REVEALED 67CAM
I can’t tell what’s on the holder and what’s on the coin. In addition to that, even good images might not show hairlines that are present on many, if not most Proof coins. For example, based on the images provided if I were going to guess - which I’m not - I’d guess Proof 67 Cameo. However, for all we know, the coin could be graded 65 or 66 due to hairlines that aren’t apparent in the images.
For those reasons, I’m going to sit this one out. And now, I’ll get off of my soap box.😉

obviously I'm biased but I believe this represents the more accurate spread in the market after the sellout
how trustworthy are the users on that site?
Re: How many complete steps do you see?
I collect Jeffersons. Full steps dont interest me. Full strikes do. Not the same thing btw
