    Nearly $1600 an an ounce on the set...think it will make it there...ooops...when will it make it there?
    Not giving away an ounce to guess the date!

  • If platinum keeps climbing, the 2008 eagles could really be quite costly. And that's the design I really want to get.

    I just nabbed the 1/10 oz Proof Platinum for my collection along with the 1/10 oz Proof Gold Eagle.....

    Missed out on the W Unc last year so might just punt on having these as a part of my collection.....

    I would be surprised if the gold does not get repriced soon.....

  • Just picked up a proof set (PCGS PR69DCAM First Strike) a couple days ago for $3,050.00, less than what US Mint price now.

  • So much for all that speculation by others on this board (wishful thinking?), that the plats were done for the year. They had already minted them, so they would rather sell them than melt them. They have until the 2008's are released to sell the 2007's Actually based on past practices, they can sell them as long as they want to. (ie. 1999 Susan B. Anthony Proof, 2001 kennedy halves, and 2005 Westward Journey Nickels were all sold in subsequent years from their release dates.)

    2006-W Uncirc, will remain the low mintage coins!!! Maybe now the prices of the 2006_W $100 unc plats wil start to rise again. I'm still sitting on a few, but at $1800, I ain't selling.
    Luck happens when preparation meets opportunity.
