I do agree with 7over8, however that the Reverse Proof Buff is a "Must Buy".
I liked the way that the 2006 Reverse Proof AGE turned out, but I didn't really like the 2007 Platinum Reverse Proof. Maybe it was the rendering of Liberty's face in Brilliant Proof, but it seems to be a bit too much.
The best-looking coins that employed a Reverse Proof treatment, in my opinion are the 1997-2003 "Uncirculated" Platinum Eagles. The accents were Brilliant, and the whole profile wasn't overdone in Brilliant Finish, like the 2007 RP Plats.
The Reverse Proof Silver Eagles are ok, so as far as I'm concerned, the jury is still out on the RP Gold Buffs. They might be hot-looking in person.
Q: Are You Printing Money? Bernanke: Not Literally
Love the design on those. Not sure about the RP. Hard to tell by the pictures.
Was saving for a 2013W burnished uncirculated eagle (hoping for low mintage like 2011/2012, which I missed *shrug*), but may have to get the RP buffalo instead!

The '11 W AGE UNC has of course dropped like a rock. There can only be one low mintage key. The key was to unload the 11's as it was becoming likely that the 12's would come in lower.
With gold lower I was thinking that the '13s would likely end up higher than the 12's. However, with the RP buffs there may be less left to spend on the 13's. Hard to predict and expensive coins to gamble on.

I knew it would happen.
