50th Anniversary Kennedy Proof 4 coin set

Does the fact that there is no mintage limit changed your decision on purchasing them? Limit of 5 per house... does that really matter? Will people still make a killing on ebay with these? All these questions and more answered on October 28th on the same bat channel at the same bat time that normally locks up their website.

I'd like to owe one just because the introduction of the JFK dollar was such a big deal to me when I was young collector. It brings back good memories.

I think that all commemorative coins should be sold this way without games, like there was with the HOF $5 gold coins. If the coin is popular and a lot of them sell, then it's common, and the but at least everyone who wanted one had a chance to buy it. If it bombs on the initial sale, but turns out to be good later, which happened with the Jackie Robinson commemoratives, that's the way it should be.

Actually, only 2 of the coins with be proof coins. The other 2 will be uncirculated versions with special finishes. All 90% Silver alloy's though.

I expect that the initial offering will have some aftermarket opportunities that the big dealers will be taking advantage of such as all 70 Sets, all First Strike/Early Release 70's Sets, the requisite "Special Label" sets that the TPG's will invariably offer, etc., etc,

Long term durability will only be affected if the final sales fall well below expectations due to a lack of interest in perpetuating these so called "Modern Rarities" that the US Mint has been producing lately.

Yep, exactly right!

I'll end up purchasing two myself, one for each of my sons. Same as I did for the HOF silver dollars. I wasn't bowling for dollars.
