I got a Facebook ad. for this coin for $480! Wow. I thought it was minted by the U.S. mint. No so. Minted in/by Barbados.
Very cool. I guess minted for collectors rather than for actual circulation.
Not sure whether it sells, anywhere, for $5 (Barbados) –> i.e., $2.48 in REAL MONEY!
The cheapest I have seen it, so far, on the Web is ~$380.
3 oz of silver, per today’s spot price, will be U.S. $90. So that is quite the markup.
Wow.
COOL, but I am not interested. I am weaning myself away from buying any new collectibles.
