    i can't find any local dealers selling the mint state 2006 1/10 ounce platinums. Anyone have someone they can suggest for me to buy one?

    Thanks.

    Anyone care to make a projection on sales? I think the Mint will really sell these because of two things; the new design and the prices commanded by the 2004 Coins.

    There might be those who think the higher prices will result in low mintages but I think enough people will be thinking this to push sales to record levels. Count me out for Mint ordering. I'll pick up a bargain Coin on eBay. The Platinums always show up on eBay when someone needs fast cash. Dealers pay melt when they know they hold the upper hand.

    I think they will sell a lot of them because people want to own stuff that has already risen in price. That must mean it is worth buying!
