Last call to see them all. All reverse proofs that is.

And the last time I can say I have them all. I've decided not to get a duplicate $3000 coin from the Mint tomorrow, so the collection started in 2006 will no longer be complete.
.
Here are the primary precious metal group in the set.

.
Technically, the silver coins from the reverse proof set should be included in that group as well.
.

.
The clad group, which I will keep complete going forward, will soon become too numerous to fit in one frame!

    plastic sure has it's place with protection, resell ease, set registry, authentication, etc but i can also say that of my favorite images ever posted on this forum, stacks of raw coins has been amongst them. :)

    @rip_f... Very, very nice collections. What a great display... You should show them at a major coin show. I am sure they are even more impressive when viewed in person. Cheers, RickO

    i love this collection! it's too bad you are no going to continue to maintain the completeness.

    Yes, it's been nice to have to display and a pleasure to own, but I just can't justify spending $3000 tomorrow for a duplicate of a coin I already have. The "duplicate" silver eagles in 2011, '12 and '13 was one thing, but this costly of a duplicate is just too much.
    I love the design - of the eagle gathering building materials, but just too expensive to justify right now. Other coins need buying!

    You are fortunate to have the exact replica, first Palladium RP version!
    As am I.
    I feel comfortable with the price I paid, particularly with the initial MS versions.

    As you all know the 2023 RP Morgan and Peace are coming out next year, but Fiji beat the US to the punch. Kinda pisses me off. Thank you Mike Sleazak.

    Great job!!! I too am throwing in the towel with that $3050 price tag. But what a great run & collection!!> @rip_f said:

    What if it weren't a duplicate finish? A RP enhanced would have really tempted you!

    Yeah I saw that too, but those don't count, not really, close but no cigar. Fiji ouija goji moji. :s

    If the 23 Rpf Morgan and Peace Dollar look like those then I’m a no thanks. I don’t think I will be able to get used to any RP Morgan and Peace Dollar. 😁

    I give the Mint credit for trying out some new RP finish techniques in recent years, but I think they've clearly indicated that they'll be in a repetitive cycle of finishes going forward.

    The completist impulse is strong in me, but not so much with moderns anymore.
    There are just too many other coins vying for that $3000 right now!
