You have to quit listening to the voices in your head.

But, but they are all "First Strike" coins, according to the Mint. To bad the TPG's don't know that.

I bought 10 John Adams. I dont think they are worth anything more than what I paid. They're in my closet somewhere.

Dump them on ebay.

Continuing to purchase something that you do not like is throwing good money after bad.

I have been buying them too but am going to stop after Lincoln as they are a waste of money. I would rather buy silver eagles. They take up less space and will be worth more down the line.

What is FDCC?

Been thinking the same thing... I WAS going to simply remove them and place them in an album, but I'm not so much inclined to do that these days... not worth the effort, as they don't seem to be appreciating much.

I have wondered, though... are these considered to be of uncirculated quality, or business strikes? They don't appear to have the satin finish of those in the annual uncirc sets...

Since we're on the topic, does anyone have the final numbers for the first & second year of the Prezbuck FDCC releases?

They're not worth close to what you paid. Neither are the few I have.

MsMorrisine

the mint must be thinking the same thing about making them.

good one.


if they are in a sealed envelope that is postmarked, I don't see why they can't give them first strike now that they seem to be offering it.

The voices in my head, have formed a barber shop quartet.

If I remember correctly the TPG's chose to ignore the fact that these are the only "TRUE" first strike coins,

example....

( 2007 P & D G. Washington ..FDCC... 50,000 coins pulled from the first day of mintage)

instead opting to endorse "FIRST DAY OF ISSUE"...

example..

(2007 P & D G. Washington ....total first day of issue.....millions and millions struck over a period of several months)

JMO.......
