Appears I cherry picked myself!

Seven or eight years ago, I bought these just for the normal silver price… $20 each? Something like that…

Going through my pictures recently and was looking and found what they are selling for online and I am absolutely speechless!

Does anybody have one of these on here? I’m just curious, are they that rare?

    Looks like there is a type 1 and type 2 - 2 being the rare one. Prices are insane though!
    I will be keeping an eye out.

    I think they believe only 50,000 of the Type 2 were minted. Some folks were lucky enough to cherry pick them, but I gave up as the premiums just kept rising.. It's no longer a secret! I paid up for this one:

    To my surprise, while looking for these cause I had them in a box for seven or eight years I actually found that I had a third one!

    My guess, is that I paid about $20 each for these back in 2018… I had no clue they were this valuable. I thought if I was lucky they might be $50 each coins…

    And who knows, maybe back in 2018 that’s all they were… This was definitely a welcomed find!

    They are already on the way to PCGS for grading, number one, I will be keeping, number two and three already have been promised to friends, I’m hoping to make 69 grade on mine, if so, it’s a wholesale $1000 coin!

    I recently found that these are indeed in the Greysheet app.

    That’s just plain out crazy!

    I've got two sitting in my silver album... I keep forgetting to pull them out and check. Good luck with the grades!

    Interesting. So are the Type 2 pups the font style OnZa? rather than ONZA. I figured it out! Also PLaTA PuRA. Thanks for this. Now I've gotta check mine. Have a good day. Peace Roy
