Nice designs both obverse and reverse. This one probably looks best in Proof condition.
Ratings:The changing reverses are a great idea for collectors! I bet that the changed reverse Lincoln cents that came out last week will be the most collected coin in history!
Ratings:The amount of detail on the reverse is just beutiful. I absolutely love the coin and this would qualify as a “perfect” design in my book. There is nothing that could make this coin more perfect.
Obviously since this is a platinum coin it has high investment potential as it contains one of the most valuable metals in the world. Also, extremely low mintages will aid in price advances with this series as a whole, especially proof versions.
Platinum is currently around $1,100 an ounce.
