    Seeing all this modern gold reminds me of the 2008-2011 timeframe and the hey-day of flipping modern US Mint products. I'll have to get a few pieces out of the SDB and image them for the thread, as well.

    I purchased the Martha Washington but this is the coin I really wanted. Washington was $100 over spot but seller put a premium on this one. If gold drops I will be getting one of these in the box it came with. This is by far the nicest modern gold.

    This was one of the best modern designs to come out of the mint. On par with the renaissance era designs.

    I don’t often do modern, but these are modern gold coins I got last year that I really enjoyed getting.

    I had all three slabbed.

    Basically it’s the same coin, three different types of strike, the matte is by far the most important, and the rarest it was struck on the day of his coronation, 6 May 2023, then after that, they released the proof which they made and sold out shortly after release and seemingly the last was the regular bullion strike, which I got from APMEX.

    Matte:

    Proof:

    Regular bullion issue:
    very gleamy, pretty in a way, but hard to photograph!

    Here are the same coins, their true views:

    The regular bullion strike is hard to photograph, PCGS did a GREAT job capturing this one!
