I remember there was a high relief gold coin in the product schedule, now it is not there anymore.

the 1804 and 1907 Best of Mint are both high relief gold coins
Buy the 2009 version and save yourself from excessively high mint prices.
I bought the 2009 70 one several years ago for $1895.
I paid a bit over $2,300 for one in an MS-70 holder. The one the mint sent me was ruined by die polishing. That’s why I bought the 70. The dealer who sold the 70 to me was PO’d because it was on its way down. I think he lost a little money.
the 2009 is ultra high relief and is 3mm smaller than the BOM version. lower mintage with BOM too.
So? It’s a contrived “rarity” which will be worth melt a few years from now. The mint is issuing so much “stuff” that very few collectors can keep up with it.
The post is about high relief offerings in the product schedule. I’m giving details about those offerings that some may find helpful.
There is no 2009 version of the 1804 btw.
Only BOM5 is High Relief. (The 1907). The 1804 (released for sale next week) is simply uncirculated.
I guess the mint needs to update the product description
You're right. If it's the same planchet as the 1907, it will also be high relief.
It will be. Not ultra high relief, like 2009, but high relief, like the liberty series.
Thanks for pointing that out. Early stories on the series noted only the 5th release as high relief. This 4th one will look even better than I expected then!
