    They look pretty cool - first curved coins, kind of like a catchers mit image It's just going to bejust the three differnt coins correct ?

    I'm not sure about that, I just heard about them.

    You can see them here: https://www.usmint.gov/batterup/?action=curvedcoin

    Not a coin guy so you would know better - the coins are like half baseballs it looks like - not flat - ever seen a mint like this before ?

    50K gold and 400K silver seem like an overload to me.

    If they do a three-coin set similar to the 5-star general sets, I'm in for a couple sets.

    I think they will be pretty popular--the US Mint has never minted a curved coin before.

    I'm in on these.
    Really dislike nearly all modern mint products but this one has me.
    I like coins and baseball. Win - win.

    I would estimate about $400 for the $5 gold piece, about $45 for the silver dollar and $20 for the clad piece.
