    I hope the mint provides an update this week. Otherwise we'll go back and forth until the cows come home.

    Well they are saying they are working to update/fix the system and since they've known about these issues for at least 2 years these may be 2023 Morgans by time they figure it out.

    I would not sell on the bay till I know what is going to happen first. But I do think we will get the coins a lot sooner than planned.

    Keep your eyes peeled for that TBD date. I have a feeling the mint will make their next move soon. Here's our current situation on this last day of May. Oh, and Happy Memorial Day everyone.

    I suspect we have a lot of 25 subs for that ASE.

    this is another product they need to lower the HHL on

    What I am thinking on these from reading and rereading the mints description is that both coins will be regular proof strikes, however both coins will be minted with the new obverse. Making the old reverse with the new obverse a 5000 mintage coin.

    Could be. That said, I 'read' the description differently.

    From the 21XK product page:
    ~ "This stunning two-coin gold proof designer edition set contains a one-tenth ounce coin with the last of the original American Eagle Gold Coin designs and one with the first of the new designs."
    ~ "The 2021 American Eagle One Tenth Ounce Gold Two-Coin Set Designer Edition contains one original and one newly re-designed American Eagle One-Tenth Ounce Gold Proof Coin, a unique set for the serious collector."

    I interpret this to mean a 21EE and a 21EEN.

    Read the description of the 2021 Type 2 Proof Gold Obverse it talks about the enhancement or changes.

The gold coin obverse will display a refreshed depiction of the 1907 design by renowned sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens, while the obverse of the silver coin will display a refreshed depiction of the 1916 “Walking Liberty” design by famed sculptor Adolph A. Weinman."

    I still don’t see any different combos of new/old.

    “ The 2021 obverse original design features a version of Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ full-length figure of Liberty with flowing hair, holding a torch in her right hand and an olive branch in her left.”

    “ The 2021 obverse design on the new coin features the same Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ full- length figure of Liberty with flowing hair.”

    Not me. If they accidentally came available, they would cancel all orders. Happened once before when they accidentally went live before noon. Everyone who bought one had their order canceled.

    I'm wondering what PFS Buyers Club must be thinking right now...

    First, they're wondering if all of their buyers are going to get their already placed 10 qty orders, from last week, canceled by the Mint...

    Second, they're wondering what to do going forward if there is an HHL placed on the other 4 releases...

    Third, how are they going to put together 6 piece sets for premium sale if either of the 1st or 2nd (or both) above come true!

    Have any PFS Buyers been contacted by PFS and care to share if there has been any guidance from PFS?

    What an amazingly ineffective numismatic press/media we have. We should not be having to parse the Mint's incredibly opaque pre-release descriptions.

    And their shamefully bogus explanation of the problem - that these are being gobbled up by bullion stackers. At least we didn't need the numis-media to see that as ridiculous.

    The vagueness of the descriptions we're pouring over might be a strategy to hype interest by keeping us guessing, but the press must have sources that can at least clarify some of this.

    PFS doesn't really care. They can easily adjust. Even if they cut the HHL, PFS will just raise their ask which will draw in more buyers. I'd be willing to bet it will be harder to get coins not easier if they cut the HHL.

    Agree to a point that they can easily adjust...
    But...they also must be salivating at the thought of how much they can make off their investments if it all works in their favor.

    With eBay prices acting like these coins are approaching Gamestock stock ($GME) returns...PFS's is looking to make a LOT of money based upon the pittance that they were paying out to their buyers.

    At this point, I'm waiting for Elon Musk to start tweeting about these coins...just to drive the price higher!

    Do you think making under $300 is almost doubling your money?

    @jmlanzaf said:

    Do you think making under $300 is almost doubling your money?

    8 x $85 = $680 (their cost), $1325 - $680 = $645 (their profit) as stated "they almost doubled their money" minus whatever fees ebay charges. I don't know what that is 10%? Even if so, over $500 profit still close to doubling their money.

  • my mistake. I saw the 850 in the photo on the ebay listing and didnt subtract 2 for only selling 8.

    For the ASE, from the 'product page' for 21EAN:
    "Thanks to modern design technology, the updated obverse is a closer reflection of Weinman’s original vision and includes the addition of his traditional artist mark."

    For the AGE, from the 'product page' for 21EBN:
    "Legacy details have been restored for the obverse design to include modifications to the Capitol Building, stars, torch, sun rays, and other design elements based on the original bronze cast."

    The Mint did Not use the year in the listing like 96% of the other offerings.

    The Only offerings without a year are the Silver medals and the two Morgan Silver Dollars…

    I've tried several dealers.

    One said they were getting them from their employees at $10 over issue.

    Another not buying.

    Another will decide once they ship.

    Certainly not what we've seen w truly hot issues.
