    IMO, this is one of his best issues because the "struck on..." is worked into the design as if it belongs there.

    Don’t understand why Dan didn’t OS on actual Stellas, at +/- 300K each it would have kept the mintages really low :# .

    I bought one, so now there's 3 or less.

    I hesitated for a moment but remembered I was sorry I missed it on the first offering.

    They were $1,050 back then

    Edit to add:
    I just tried to add one to the cart and it worked so there is at least 1 left.

    I think I got the last one, thanks for the heads up guys, :)

    Surprised by the 2oz cob's strong Cartwheel Effect...

    https://youtu.be/KmqEY58appo

    This is my first Carr color-toned cob, so I'm wondering if this is a common feature. Or did I just get lucky?

    Due to the extreme radial expansion of the 2-troy-oz cobs when struck, they have a very pronounced starburst ("cartwheel") effect. Silver often tends to tone in a splotchy (unattractive) manner. But due to the characteristics of these cobs (melting temperature, trace elements, surface contaminants, work-hardening from striking, etc.) the color toning really worked on them.

    Yes, the first three went quick and the last one held on for a little while longer. All gone now.

    I haven't really determined a schedule for this year. But the 2019 silver octagon owl might be a February release.

    I really like how the 2018 Knights of the Coin Table 50mm 3-troy-oz silver medals turned out. Also the 2-troy-oz color-toned cobs, of course.

    I will definitely do more of the round 50mm 3-troy-oz silver format, possibly next as a extra-high-relief Winged Liberty Saint-Gaudens. The 2-troy-oz cob format will probably be utilized again also (not yet decided on what).

    It's really a great place to hang out and enjoy talking about coins. The medals are a bonus.
