2007 platinum reverse proof

Thoughts anyone? Is it possible that the mint will offer a plat RP by itself so it could be more affordable? Is it possible they would do a 2 piece set (1 executive and 1 soaring)? I guess there are many reasonable possibilities, maybe even a 4 coin RP fractional set with all 4 coins a RP.

Is this new information? The 2-coin option was one of the survey questions, but with what degree of certainty do you say this will be the option, and where did the 15,000 set figure come from?
I knew it would happen.

Also, why didn't they put "Legislative" on the reverse of the 2006's. How could they overlook that? Didn't someone at the mint notice the lack of "Legislative" in the design compared to the other two? >>
The mint director realized that the legislative branch of government was the most confused, so they left it off so legislators wouldn't get any more lost than they already are. (remember they couldn't even balance their own checkbook ?)
The executive branch has one boss
the judicial branch has 12 who use law to reason
the legislative branch has sessions just to see who disagrees only to realize there are more than twosides2acoin.
Now you know why something's missing.

<< <i>I heard the Anniversary set this year will have two 1/2 oz. coins in it, one will be the reverse proof, and the other will be the regular proof. Only 15,000 sets will be produced, 1 per household. They will be issued late summer/fall.

A little birdie told me. And yes, it is new information.
<< <i>BTW, Welcome to the Boards GoldDigger66!!!
Thank you. Thank you very much!
I guess that's why someone was thinking about buying real estate in another thread vs. coins. He really wants to purchase as many of these sets as he can get
I see how you high rollers are playin' now.

If it's 15,000, it's a dead series. With mintages in 2-3,000 for the 2006-W, a 15k 2007 RP wont be that interesting other than a one type. Small premium at best. 10k is marginally better. 5k is optimum (and mint minimum.)

1 per household? NO WAY! The Flippers would march on Washington!
The fact that your friends don't care for coins is great! Last time I asked somebody to buy a coin for me, they ended up liking it to much and keeping it! At least you don't have to worry about that!
No, platinum is very durable and in my opinion are the best coins to collect. They will not corrode, rust, tarnish, spot, or anything else that happens to copper, silver, and gold.
<< <i>Last I heard the mint was leaning towards a three coin set with a 10,000 maximum mintage. If they restrict it to one set per household they'll never sell all 15,000. Hell! At one per household they won't sell 10,000. Especially with everything on the schedule getting pushed back at the mint... >>
I come from many households if the price is right...if that's what it take to keep the mintage low THEN SO BE IT !!
How about half a household? Maybe 2,500 sets?

How long did it take the 2006 plat proofs to sell in the 7500 range? I don't see that working for the mint.
Forget about a two coin set with 15K mintage. They will never sell 15K units and the total sales proceeds would be less than 10K unit sellout at around 2650 per set.
The mint has never done a one unit max order, I would expect 5 to 10 units per household.
I could, however, believe that if the product sells very quickly - that the mint would further limit quantities, from 10 max down to 5 or 3.
They have a track record of doing that before, with several issues, even issues that had no max ordering amount - the one that comes to mind is the 2001 Buffalo Coin and Currency set where limtis were placed AFTER orders were taken of 20 max per household.
<< <i>Sorry, but the report that sets will number 15k -- with a limit of one -- is just too difficult for me to believe. Aside from being exactly the opposite of what people here want to hear (on both counts!), it's totally inconsistent with last year's practices. >>
Really? A limit of 1 per household? They must really be trying to cut down on speculators and selling to more collectors. Perhaps too much?
This can actually result in something even more rare if people buy in limited quantities and not that many people buy. If the mint doesn't decide to relax the limits near the end and lets the set end well below the maximum limit, it could be a real winner.
