Poll - The 2015 Ultra High Relief - Another Gold Kennedy or a smash hit? How many did you buy?

TopographicOceans · July 30, 2015 4:46AM

I'll admit to buying two. One to keep for my collection and one for the nice people on eBay

Bullsitter · July 30, 2015 4:53AM

ZERO

Booger9989 · July 30, 2015 4:53AM

Bought 10. 1 for me 9 for resale

MsMorrisine · July 30, 2015 4:54AM

more than one to make my own 70

Type2 · July 30, 2015 5:12AM

Flop not a flip Big "0" for me.

Kudbegud · July 30, 2015 5:18AM

A single example. To slab or not is the next question.

mbogoman · July 30, 2015 5:55AM

One, for my collection. Call me the odd man out, but I really like the design. My only difficulty was with the premium. But after the quick sellout, I'm happy I bought one...

I'll cart it along to the Public Friday next month and submit it with the rest of my order(s).

johnny9434 · July 30, 2015 6:49AM

none, do not need it.

BillJones · July 30, 2015 7:06AM

Zero

This piece does not interest me in the least.

Manorcourtman · July 30, 2015 8:50AM

Bought none and don't believe this is a flip candidate!! I believe when the bills come due in 30 days it will be a race to a bottom for these as nervous flippers head for the exits.

nycounsel · July 30, 2015 9:52AM

I like the design, but with the mintage and $1500 price tag, I don't see this as a flip opportunity. I think I'll pick one up once the price settles.

TopographicOceans · July 31, 2015 5:44AM

It looks like another Gold Kennedy

'Break Even' if your selling using PayPal (without a Store or any discounts) needs a BIN price of at least $1,739.80. >>

"There have been sales at $1750 on Ebay. After fees and shipping how are they making money"

Well, there you go. An easy $10.20 profit!

agentjim007 · July 31, 2015 6:42AM

You're figuring 10% seller fee. If they have a store it's 6% fee. Still not worth it to me.

derryb · July 31, 2015 6:46AM

gold commemorative coins tend to do poorly during declining gold prices. I'm on the sidelines with this one.

FullStrike · July 31, 2015 6:51AM

I fully intended to sit this one out - I swear !

Then at 12 :00 my obsession took over and I went to the website. Put 50 into my basket just to have
a looksee at what crazy stuff might be up - instant backorder, sellout, whatever. Well it said I was over
the limit for Credit Card orders!

OK so then I figured I want to order 1 just to have an in hand close up. A little later I decided I'd get
another and send the best one in for my first slabbing ever.

Of course an hour after all that I figured oh get another and send in the best of 3. Luckily self control
kicked in. I got 9 Bags of ATB Quarters instead.

And wouldn't you know the Quarters all shipped first. My 3rd Mint Order of the day is the first out the door.

Somehow I'd love to visit that Shipping Operation.

I agree with Bill's above quoted post...

How the F do you vote in these polls? Click this, click that, click whatever, makes no difference.

bestday · July 31, 2015 7:27AM

flippers best to dump these early ...large supply quickly coming out there .. coupled with large Mint premium makes for interesting situation

JCLIGHTBRIGADE · July 31, 2015 7:50AM

I just took a look on Ebay. For some reason the listings all just look silly. All selling the same thing which is always the case but this time it just seems different.

Ponchsoxfl · July 31, 2015 8:29AM

I backorded one last night but came to my senses this morning and cancelled. The market will be flooded with these below issue price in a few months.

ricko · July 31, 2015 10:57PM

No interest.... nice to look at... but not for my collection - and certainly not for a stack. Cheers, RickO

Raufus · July 31, 2015 11:07PM

<< <i>I backorded one last night but came to my senses this morning and cancelled. The market will be flooded with these below issue price in a few months. >>

A lot of folks had similar thoughts on the UHR and now look at them. I sure wish I hadn't sold a couple so early.

The Mint smartly priced the coin with a high enough premium over gold spot .. to take out the speculation wind out for now.. down the road ?... who knows

pitboss · August 1, 2015 12:37AM

Not me! It's not worth investing that kind of money on such a high mintage coin that is going nowhere but down to melt price.

PerryHall · August 1, 2015 12:42AM

<< <i>Not me! It's not worth investing that kind of money on such a high mintage coin that is going nowhere but down to melt price. >>

Just like the other high relief 1 oz gold coin with a mintage of more than double this coin?

jmski52 · August 1, 2015 12:46AM

I wonder what the order count is up to now> how did Coin World come up with their numbers yesterday?

pf70collector · August 1, 2015 1:28AM

I didn't buy either. I will wait til 2016 for the gold walking liberty and gold mercury dime. Classics tend to do better than these new mint designs.

telephoto1 · August 1, 2015 1:38AM

I'm in the zero camp as well. After the usual suspects get in and out, these will be cheaper on the aftermarket. Unlike the UHR Saint pieces, these have a ho-hum design that IMO will fizzle after the flippers and TV sellers are done (and thus we'll be able to buy them much cheaper later if desired). JMHO

LindeDad · August 1, 2015 2:37AM

The Mints still open?

FullStrike · August 1, 2015 3:05AM

My 2 ordered separately within the 1st hour are both at the USPS Origin facility in Memphis.

Expected to arrrive in Warren MI Post Office on Monday.

I'm eagarly wanti g to see them. Might keep one, or both. Might send one to be slabbed.

Decisions, decisions.
