Platinum coin hype posted by LJ Rambo

[CSJournals-migration]

I believe the 2010 platinum coins sold out because the mint is starving the public with the lack of minting decent collectable coins. Why should we buy a 2010 Platinum coin which has a total population of 10,000.00? You can buy the 2006, 2007 or 2008 Platinums with a much lower population.

 

I believe the 2010 platinum coins sold out because the mint is starving the public with the lack of minting decent collectable coins. Why should we buy a 2010 Platinum coin which has a total population of 10,000.00? You can buy the 2006, 2007 or 2008 Platinums with a much lower population. These coins have a total mintage of less than 25% in comparison

 

The total population of these coins is as follows.

 

 

Date 1 oz. 1/2 oz. 1/4 oz. 1/10 oz.

2006 3,068 2,577 2,676 3,544

2007 4,177 3,635 3,690 5,556

2008 2,876 2,253 2,481 3,706

 

When I check the NGC cences for MS70 I found the following population.

 

2006 1 oz - 674 1/2 oz - 675 1/4 oz - 695 1/10 oz - 1110

 

2007 1 oz - 735 1/2 oz - 731 1/4 oz - 793 1/10 oz - 1243

 

2008 1 oz - 835 1/2 oz - 576 1/4 oz - 625 1/10 oz - 905

 

If your looking for a rare gem I suggest you look for the complete set 2006 through 2008.

 

It's a shame that the US mint cannot release coins that really tempt the puyblic to collect. I guess the investor is running the show. Because the US mint will not mint the Silver or gold proof or burnised coins.

 

So the us mint will have turn lower profits again because they will continue to mint the bullion edition
