THARE PURTEE, JOLEEN, AN WURRA GONTER ORDER AS MINNY AS WE KIN!
According to the mint's web site the mintage will be 125,000 which is high for a gold coin. I'd be surprised if it sells out.

Equipment issues and other projects getting in the way. But they're coming (Friday).

PCGS has separate coin numbers on these for coins w/ and w/o FB, so at least PCGS is optimistic that they will be grading some of these w/ FB.
I believe that one of the coin magazines has quoted the mint as saying that these are actual photographs of the coin.

Not saying this novelty item can't sell out, but what a bunch of phooey, a ridiculous mark up to the bullion, with a ridiculously high mintage. The mint has completely jumped the shark, not that they hadn't already. I guess the mint thinks they're PT Barnum. ;~

Yup, just step away folks, shield your eyes, let others do the heavy mintage limit lifting for you!
Demand is robust for popular classic designs.
At 125,000 mintage for the 2016 Merc, I expect a quick sellout.

Positive BST: WhiteThunder (x2), Ajaan, onefasttalon, mirabela, Wizard1, cucamongacoin, mccardguy1
Negative BST: NONE!
It has recently occurred to me that I could also potentially over-strike these 2016 gold dimes
I think it would be a great idea, esp for those thinking this doesn't do justice to the original.
