Which should I keep and which should I sell? I'm just so concerned with my potential decision at this point.

    Keep neither and I thank you for such a cool giveaway to the 3rd to reply to this thread image

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

    The proof has a mintage which is limited. The MS has an unlimited mintage. Which winds up being a better buy depends on demand. There seems to be a ton of demand for these coins right now which indicates to me that they are both poor choices for investment, unless your goal is to lose money.

    Well if the AGE is any guide, if gold stays around where it is the proof should lose about $100 over the next few years. If gold declines it will lose more. If it goes up it should hold its value or increase if gold rises $100 or so. In short I don't think too much of the proof at it's current price. One thing that could make this opinion invalid would be if the mint changes the design next year. One year only types have a better chance of holding their value.

    Give them both to Cherwood now. She'll end up with them eventually so bypass the begging. image

    image I agree with holeinone - 4 coins graded at 69 or 70 together would make a nice little looker!image
