The few PR70 coins I've seen don't seem to be letting up.. I'm sure someone here is tracking them and will chime in. It will be interesting once all the dust from speculation and FOMO settles, IMO. Then we'll really see if they trend up or down.. I agree with someone here (forget who) that said "this coin has legs!"

That would be my quote! But if it has now reached its peak somewhere around $1500/ea for a raw coin struck last month...it was a lovely ride. It will always carry a huge premium relative to issue price. How much remains to be seen.

Not only this but also the feedbacks of the person selling the coin too you have to consider for some coins selling lower. I wouldn't deal with a lot of these people that are selling this coin right now, only if they have a lot of feedbacks would I deal with them and they would have to have a 100% feedbacks.
I agree Goldbully! But then Christmas 🎄 is coming right around the corner. Could be cause everybody is buying Christmas gifts from 🎅🏿 Santa. Wonder how it will be on the 26th or 27th.
Somebody on this board predicted that AFTER Christmas prices will fall.

It's all tucked away nice and secure. At the end of the day, I don't care what it does. It's a key date, maybe always will be, maybe not, but it will always be worth more than Mint price! I bought it because it IS a key date, not to flip it. It's been interesting if nothing else!
Is anyone really surprised that the euphoria for this coin is starting to wane? Just wait until the next big thing from the mint comes alone.

The way this coin was distributed may be leading many collectors who didn't get one at the issue price to DROP the series entirely. If that is the case then prices in the aftermarket can be expected to drop steadily. Supply and demand will rule in the end.
The daily median price peaked for OGP coins on December 10, 2019. As of December 17, 2019 we are down 14.9% from that peak price on a daily median price basis...
A factor that is not included in the stats is the influence of low (one) feedback sellers on the prices. Add to that the previously no coin sellers decreases to credibility of actually getting what you pay for. SO a low ball sale or sales really don't say a lot. They are real but have that "Made in China" feel to them
I would watch dealer sales and that would be more indicative of the market....and yes, they are also down a tad
In a couple weeks we will be in a new decade. I'm not sure what are the strong and unique points on this coin are except as a means to an end. I'd rather have a PCGS 1921 HR Peace dollar in MS65, preferably cac.

On the flip side of this argument possibly the quick money flip and maybe false belief that coins are a great investment may bring lots more people into the hobby.

But as soon as they realize the chances of "winning" again are poor they will drop out and look for another quick buck scheme. These kind of people aren't interested in collecting, they are interested in making quick money.
Large initial demand in the secondary market from collectors who missed out with the mint. Now many of those collectors have purchased their 1 coin, so demand is down.
Prices will now drift down to their equilibrium price, which I believe will still be quite high.

Doubtful. They may say it now, but they collect the series because they enjoy the series. They'd only be punishing themselves. I would be surprised if more than 5 really stubborn people dropped the series.
You are far more likely to get a surge of interest if the new design is inspired

I’m not sure about you but I like making quick money as much as the next guy. It has opened our hobby up to lots of people who might otherwise not have. My guess is some will think it’s interesting and delve deeper. Some won’t give a rats ***.
I’m betting it is a net positive.
There is hope for the 69 if the following is true... while it’s true that an MS70 is the highest grade, it’s not the grade that makes the coin valuable. It’s the number of coins that exist in that grade or potentially could be graded in that condition that make a coin valuable.

What makes it valuable is the number of collectors with money that need/want one. Supply and demand.
Yes and no. For rare coins supply will always outstrip demand. The challenge/Hope here is if the overwhelming preponderance of the 30k that are graded are 70’s the rarity beyond the just acquiring one is removed and it is the lower grade in which there are currently running at circa a quarter of overall graded becomes the rarity due to scaricity. Happens with Cac stickers where a coin may not cac as a 65 but will cac and be worth more money than the 65 as a super fine example of a 64. Well here is hoping anyway. Will be twenty years to see if that hypothesis stands a chance.

I have always wondered how hard it to corner an issue like this. When these had their IPO, market cap was near $2.1 million. Now closer to $30 million - even if you did not corner, you could set a floor.

Did you sent him a invoice? That was the first thing I did so the buyer knows the total cost.
I got a message back from the Buyer that he needed a few days to round the money up but that he just wanted me to know he was going to buy it.
I messaged him back sure just keep me up to date.
About 30 seconds later I get a mesage from my Pay Pal that I just got paid! He had a low feedback rating too lower that 13 but they came through. This is more of a encouraging post to keep positive and let us know the outcome. Hopefully you will post back that they buyer paid!

I don't usually send an invoice since I offer free shipping. The total is what it is. After looking at their feedback, it seems they buy coins from other sellers, but the two feedback about not paying were both for 2019-S ERP coins. One sealed box, one presale. Maybe I'll get lucky but not holding my breath.

Maybe it's just me, but I think this hypothesis is flawed beyond measure.
The supply outstrips the demand. But the hope that a coin in LOWER grade will be more valuable because it is scarcer. Economics 101 says that the price of the 70 just drops because supply outstrips demand and it will drag the 69 down with it, albeit more slowly because it is less expensive to begin with not because it is more scarce.
Well we shall see JM. mintage rarety vs grade rarety. In the scenario described above you have a mintage rarety offsetting a grading non rarety ie the propenderence of graded coins are 70. Not sure how many times this dynamic has been in play in the past...wind against tide. I have one of both so am set either way. Merry Christmas JM
