Got one this morning from the Mint, saw they were available. Was pretty sure they sold out, so I checked the ATS and it said 1. So I bought it. Had been watching a few on eBay at prices around $6000. Got this one for $5040.
Was on the fence earlier in the year when they started selling these for around $5600 or so, hopefully this one is a nice coin and not an ugly return!

Let us know, I'm curious if you get a decent one. The skeptics here will insist that yours will be an ugly return.
Coin arrived earlier this week and it looks pretty much perfect, just a super small dot above the second 7 of 1776, looks to be something on the surface that could just be picked right off, but i'm not opening the capsule to try It's a keeper!

It's a great one! Congrats for adding it to your collection!
I believe they will do very well. Many investors chasing gold Buffalos and 2026 issues should see huge demand. Would like a few then send to our hosts to get them slabbed. Super sales potential that material.

I wonder if the 300+ that are left to get to the 15k mintage limit ever come up for sale

Debating buying one of these from the secondary market for $5,600 or "saving" powder to try to get the 1804 set. Guess I love paying premiums...
We paid $5540 on May 7 from the Mint and don’t regret it, as it’s for my collection and not to profit from.

Thanks so much. Just can’t decide if I want this or taking a shot at the 1804 more…

you likely have time to wait on the 1804 and purchasing the buff if the 1804 falls through

Thank you both for your input. I appreciate the advice from more experienced collectors, as I am relatively new.
Nice!
I love the coin but not the price when i bought one from the Mint. I only bought one to keep the heard complete. Lucked out & got a 70. I'm glad they're not just melt.
Comments
ATS = 11, so may be now or never...
I thought they'd have long sold out by now.
ARS now? It is now unavailable.
Meant ATS (any unsold?).
If it is unavailable, the ATS is zero.
All comments reflect the opinion of the author, even when irrefutably accurate.
It’s gone. Drop in gold tier pricing took it and 4 of the 5 gold AE products out too. Only thing left it the half Oz
Thanks all
PR70's going for $6600-6700 on ebay.
Not like people didn't have ample opportunity to get them!!

A number in coin club like to stack this material especially slabbed both for collection and investment.

Demand will be high.
ebay report.
These are pretty much unavilable now on ebay in PR70 PCGS ((one at $8k)). Here are the most recent sales:
I'll also note that the Unc version is looking really attractive with only 1300 graded MS70 this year.
Nice!
