Ultra High Relief,
Dan explained that "Canada 1-troy-oz gold Maple Leaf coins are 9995 or 9999, but more importantly, they are smaller in diameter and thicker than most other 1-troy-oz gold coins. The thickness allows for higher relief.
The new ones (silver and gold) are about 0.050" relief height. Also, the new gold one is a little smaller in diameter at 30mm and so that has the effect of "concentrating" the same relief height in a smaller area (which makes the sides of the devices steeper).
For comparison, a typical Morgan Dollar has a relief height of about 0.015""

Sorry I am confusing. Typically Dan uses same obverse die to strike different metals. I actually desire different metals produced with same die as I am an odd duck. So without research i claim the 2022 silver & gold issues are unique, made with different sized obverse dies. > @Zoins said:

I agree. I was just surprised so many are sold. By comparison the 1/4 oz Proof Like gold piece shows only 6 minted and the 1/10 oz is at 7.
I thought about the 1/4 oz but having no other years of that coin would make it a odd ball for me. Now if the 1/2 oz and 1 oz Proof Like are made it would make a nice year set. Of course there is always the chance the 2.5 oz Octagon gets made. Now that would take precedence over the others for me.

A bit better than the (1906) ASG_MCMVI_Au1
34mm, 999 gold Satin Sold Out 19 $1,750
I think they are both great and amazing, but with different focus. The MCMVI is closer to what ASG's design with the rays and no motto, while the MMXXII shows off Dan's artistry with the stars. It depends on if your mind is more in MCMVI or MMXXII.
If one is into pure artistry, I do think the MMXXII will be amazing because of how incredible the $100 unions look.
I own one of the (1906)ASG_MMVI_os1 pieces (over-struck using a genuine ASG double eagle and having TWENTY DOLLARS on the reverse) and thought the new offering of (2022)ASG_MMXXII_G1 pieces (over-struck using a genuine Canadian Maple Leaf) would make a great two-medal set so I ordered one when they first came out. It hasn't arrived yet, but when it does I might take images of them side-by-side so folks can compare them. The common theme of the two, in my view, is the ASG inspired or derived design on both sides coupled with the fact that they are over-struck over legitimately issued US and Canadian mint gold products.

I hope to one day track down one of those (1906)ASG_MMVI_os1 pieces and the 1934 Saint to go with the (2022)ASG_MMXXII_G1 piece. A tall order but could make it even tougher if I included both 1861 Confederate overstrikes.

I am guessing that he simply began minting the UHR orders, reflected in the number. The others are probably ordered up but not yet produced. Those are production numbers.
I accidentally didn't order the UHR gold on my initial order and had to order it a couple days later. Might mean that will ship soon, as it is separate.
The mintage for those also might be relatively high in the end, I suspect, due to the spending out there this year.

The disparity in the apparent mintages between the smaller Clark Gruber 1/10-oz and 1/4-oz compared to the larger Winged Saint-Gaudens is because I just finished minting all of the latter that I will need to fill current orders, plus a few extra. Later today I plan to strike what I need on the smaller Clark Gruber issues. So I will update those mintages soon after.

You created an amazing coin in that Winged Saint Gauden. The Peace Dollar is as exceptional. True treasures.
Not to interrupt the gold talk, but I think it is time for one or more Hard Times Tokens.
National debt, inflation, gas prices....what's not to commemorate?
Or maybe a miniature Ike or Peace dollar scaled down in size by the % of lost value since originally minted. Or, full size with the denomination changed to show the current value of a dollar adjusted for inflation.
@JBK , I like your hard times idea, especially surrounding the price of Gas...
They are building a new station near me and the Digital Sign was defaulted to all 9s - 9.99 across the board which got me thinking...
** what happened if gas tops $10, there isn't an extra digit space on the gas sign and probably 99.9% of all of them.**
Its like Y2K all over again!?! What will be do!?! Will the gas prices default to zero!? (Probably not) but how about a Hard times token commemorating the day the gas signs broke...
The token could be made of Silver and the reverse could have a slogan like "With double digit gas prices, This silver will still buy as many gallons it would have 50 years ago" or something like that.

This is one my favorite designs from Dan. He picked a good one for this iconic series.
Picked up the 2021 COVID medal yesterday. Glad to see it back in stock so I could order one.
These are awesome!
I'm hoping Dan makes a 2022 so I can have a 3 year set, or as long as it takes.
Maybe instead of "The world shut down" it can read "The world re-opened".
Or maybe that's wishful thinking, or tempting fate.
Any mask rule still in effect now?
I think there might be a few local ones somewhere, and the airlines still have it for now.

The disparity in the apparent mintages between the smaller Clark Gruber 1/10-oz and 1/4-oz compared to the larger Winged Saint-Gaudens is because I just finished minting all of the latter that I will need to fill current orders, plus a few extra. Later today I plan to strike what I need on the smaller Clark Gruber issues. So I will update those mintages soon after.
You created an amazing coin in that Winged Saint Gauden. The Peace Dollar is as exceptional. True treasures.

The 2.5 oz gold octagon is going to be awesome!
Looks like the Winged Saint mintage is still ahead of both 1/10 oz and 1/4 oz.

Not to interrupt the gold talk, but I think it is time for one or more Hard Times Tokens.
National debt, inflation, gas prices....what's not to commemorate?
Or maybe a miniature Ike or Peace dollar scaled down in size by the % of lost value since originally minted. Or, full size with the denomination changed to show the current value of a dollar adjusted for inflation.
The only years that I have offered a 2.5-troy-oz gold octagon were 2015, 2016, 2017.
All three of those have a mintage of 6 or 7 pieces each.
Will you be offering one this year?
I was interpreting the line for CG_QE_2022_PL to mean they will be struck this year.
"Hey Big Spender, Can You Lend Me a Dime?" Ouch, nice that you got it like that. LOL
Well, just Love coins, period.
@JBK , I like your hard times idea, especially surrounding the price of Gas...
They are building a new station near me and the Digital Sign was defaulted to all 9s - 9.99 across the board which got me thinking...
** what happened if gas tops $10, there isn't an extra digit space on the gas sign and probably 99.9% of all of them.**
Its like Y2K all over again!?! What will be do!?! Will the gas prices default to zero!? (Probably not) but how about a Hard times token commemorating the day the gas signs broke...
The token could be made of Silver and the reverse could have a slogan like "With double digit gas prices, This silver will still buy as many gallons it would have 50 years ago" or something like that.
It's all about what the people want...
