No I, but she was an interesting and attractive first lady.
Retired dealer and avid collector of U.S. type coins, 19th century presidential campaign medalets and selected medals. In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible.

You need to check out the famous painting of her wearing the red dress with the white dog when see was younger. It's easy to Google it.

I wish there was a way to get a true assessment of how many real Collectors of this series are actually out there. Personally I think most are iust Dealers hoping to make 70 First Strikes for the flip. Oh well its a free country as they say.
if there were no collectors, to whom would the dealers sell? >>
I am sure that there will be a sales promotion somewhere down the line. They will tout the very low mintages and historical significance to non-collectors and other speculators. The biggest problem will be the gold content which will put a heavy floor under the price, but that can be turned around and called an investment in bullion, even at several times the melt value.

I look at it as an investment that I will sell way down the road. Not super exciting but it's interesting seeing the new designs they come out with. Im looking foreword to Jacqueline Kennedy.

Quick flippers sell to longer term flippers. If these were around 500 mintage I think I'd actually want to collect them. I rarely sell anything I get. Call me a Collector or a hoarder but don't call me an investor, speculator or flipper.
