While it's 5 minutes of my life that I'll never get back, based on quick google search info:
Based on a Musk new worth of $318B (OMG!), a 50K value of each of the 230 priveys, the average net worth of American household ($1,063,700 - had no idea it was that high) all 230 priveys would be worth $11,500,000 which, relative to Elon's net worth would be the same as $38 to relative to the average American's net worth.
This is why he shrugs off $44B purchase of Twitter now estimated to be worth $600M
I'm gunning for last shipped. Just checked at 19:14 PST and my order is still stuck at "Processing"
I even called the Mint's customer service and they said that not to worry, my order will get filled.... eventually.
I'll check with PCGS and see if I can get a "last filled" label.
Successful BST: dmwjr, ike126, bajjerfan, morganman94, sonoradesertrat, 12voltman, duiguy, gsaguy, gsa1fan, martin, coinfame, zas107, bothuwui, gerard, kccoin, jtwitten, robcool, coinscoins, mountain_goat, and a few more.
For those of you received already who all is keeping in original packaging vs slabbing?
Im on the fence and leaning to keep original although all my stuff is now certified. What I felt was dust is actually on the coin. Most what I own is earlier and not over MS64. Not even sure where line is drawn on 70 vs 69.
The two spots in field are not dust. Would these spots prevent 70 at PCGS?

Seems kinda lame. They knew this entire time that they'd only minted a bit more than half of the allotment but let the public think otherwise. Doesn't the Mint work for the People? If so, why are they jerking ppl around?

i believe they minted the 17500, but only allocated 10k for the single coin sale. many are speculating theres gonna be a silver medal flowing hair + gold coin flowing hair SET for sale in the foreseeable future

That's cool, but why all the mystery and misdirection from the Mint in the lead-up to (& during) both the silver medal and the FH gold coin going on sale? They obviously know how many they've produced but they let the public think it's a different quantity. The FH silver medal was my first direct purchase from the Mint and I didn't intend to buy the gold (but could've).
As an inexperienced Mint purchaser, this disposes me to resentment, distrust and hostility toward USMint.

Mine ordered the first morning just shipped but the USPS does not have it yet.
I didn't expect selected shipping speed to affect queue order this much. Order placed this past Sunday was delivered Tuesday using next day.

Regardless thrilled to own this.
Keeping mine raw.

I like the OGP for this one - even the COA is nice. I'm never selling so will enjoy in the OGP.
It's probably easier to see the edge inscription in the OGP as well.
Such an awesome coin!
