Mayflower Silver Set COA #s

My Mayflower silver set is finally expected to be delivered today and I am just curious what other people who have received theirs already have gotten for COA #. I haven’t really seen anybody posting about their numbers but I imagine a low one would bring a higher premium. I haven’t even seen anybody post a picture of their COA number on eBay. It just seems odd.

    It might, but the lower COA# doesn't really mean anything. It's not like they number them in order of minting.

    I have #440

    I know there was nothing special about the number like none of them were signed. Just didn’t know if people thought lower numbers were more special like with the 2019 S Enhanced Reverse Proof. Would have been cool if you got # 400 for the 400th Anniversary I guess.

    As I recall, the 1 to 100 were signed. Even then, there was really no difference between #1 and #100. A lot of it is just hype or inexplicable sentiment.

    IF I got #1, believe me, I'd put it in BOLD ALL CAPS and run a 7 day auction and hope two people irrationally loved it. On the other hand, I wouldn't pay a nickel more to buy #1 than #20,000 for my collection.

    Nice set... I did not buy one, but I like the design. I do not care about COA's.... Cheers, RickO

    How about 7, 77, 777, or 7,777? Think those would bring any additional $? I haven't seen anyone listing "rare" numbers but i also haven't been looking :D

    would be cool, but until someone starts attempting to pump up 'rare' numbers, I think these are just 'neat' [not saying I wouldn't've be stoked if I would've got 0001 😄]
