I'm in love with

I'm in love with this coin but not the price. Is it going to go up or come back down. I'm thinking more or less it's going to go up where does it top out at, who knows so what I was wondering if somebody could hook me up with probably a German mint that makes these I can get on a waiting list I'm not sure?

Wow lot of money for a 1oz coin does look nice but far to much hype and premium for it I could buy say a 2018 gold panda 2018 elephant and lunar dog for that

Gs.be have them a little cheaper but they are not necessarily ms70 like the one you listed

That's what I try to keep telling myself it's only an ounce of gold no matter how it looks it's only an ounce of gold

How ridiculous are some of these labels. First Releases. What does that even mean, really, when talking about a mintage of 188. With a single die being able to comfortably knock out a few thousand quality BU coins, the whole mintage of 188 are first releases.

When a full run of 5 -6k are done with a die, and the first 500 or whatever are put aside as firsts (with the best possible strikes), then fine, designate them.

I'd rather buy three 1oz Britannias and a few sovs!  I can't believe anyone would consider paying that for a 1oz coin. That's insane!!

And 2 months ago I said it was insane to pay $5000 for bitcoins, look how that worked out.

It's ok as a design but it doesn't blow me away; looks a bit like it's been run over 

I can't believe people are willing to pay so much for a series with no history from a minor mint

Are you all missing the fact that the coin he's showing is an ms70 slabbed coin which attracts an unreasonable premium as always. (Unreasonable to me anyway).

GS.be have them for €1969 which is a hefty premium however it's not unheard of. With a low mintage and what appears to be a growing market for the series it may not be entirely a bad idea.

Personally I wouldn't spend that sort of premium on any coin but many people will and do....

Buy a non slabbed for about $2200 and pocket the $1500 worth of slab hype in the coin.

I’d pay the extra and buy a rooster, better looking and lower mintage......... if you can find one

This coin graded pretty well. Chances are that you will get a MS70 if you grade yourself. Forum member @muenzdachs has them, too and does ship international, if you contact him.

Thought this was going to be about the Girl at the Manchester Virgin Megastore Checkout Desk.
