Its seems strange that since last years ASE release fiasco the news from the mint has been all but nil….

If you like it buy it & SAVE it – @ the USM price$ you will need $50 AG to break even. But, they can keep minting them forever if they want as well. Oh and Jackson was quite the peacemaker with the native Americans. He like them off their land, out of sight, preferably starving. A real POS as a human, good General, great leader of soldiers,.. Creator of the Trail of Tears! 😯

I WAS collecting these, but as for now I dont believe I will be going forward.
For all the same reasons you all have mentioned.
Just cant do it
Just not worth it

Seth,
I really wanted to collect these but the price just didn’t make any kind of sense to me. They would have looked great with my PCGS PR70 Proof Presidential Dollars with the President’s picture on the label. The Mint is going the wrong way in a lots of ways.

Mjs –

Lol. Don’t give the inept U.S.Mint Director David J. Ryder any more crazy ideas! He was busy on that very expensive trip to American Samoa with the Mint photographer & he didn’t even hold the traditional Mint forum the night before the bat coin release! ( even though the bat ATB quarter coins were already in circulation by the time he & the main U.S. Mint photographer arrived in American Samoa!). What a waste of our taxpayer money!

Seth, I’m surprised the mint hasn’t raised the price of the left over 2019 ATB 5 ounce pucks to $178.25 – oops, maybe I should I should keep quiet….

And to add insult to injury, the U.S. Mint raised the prices of the old, already-struck 2018 & 2019 silver presidential medals from $39.95 issue price to $46 this year!
Does anyone else collect these? Are they worth it at this new, highly-increased price?

The issue price of these unlimited mintage silver medals was raised this year from $39.95 (2018 & 2019) to $46.00 this year (a $6.05 increase!). That’s about $27 over spot silver price & it’s not a Proof medal.
