I am not buying. These seem to be normalizing at these 18-19K mintages now. Though the 2013 seems to remain the king dethroning the 2008.

    I think this will be a good buy if it really is sold out. A mintage of under 20,000 might not be great for a lot of coins, but people actually like the proof Buffaloes and Apmex's Price of around $1660 is a pretty attractive entry point. I seem to recall buying proof buffaloes raw from the mint for $1900 a year or two ago. I guess lower gold does make this stuff look cheap (although I do realize it could go cheaper). Also, if gold prices keep going down, I would think all mintages would start to head higher. I hope the mint decides to make fractionals again next year.

    I buy one 70 each year shortly after release. Love this series.

    It would be nice if they did fractionals every year.... they make a nice 'mini' set and good for gifts. Cheers, RickO
