This was only released a couple of weeks ago at $750 at 2000 mintage and I didn't buy it because I didn't know if it would appreciate. Now it's going for ~$2500 on ebay.. >_<

Oh, man. Saw flyers for these and they were featured in the newspaper, looked pretty cool.

Wow. I never knew that a coin could go for that much money. I guess that there are hard core Superman collectors who have that money to spend on those coins.

WOW...

Was this a Canadian thing? I noticed that all of the sellers were in Canada, I think. I wonder if we will be kicking ourselves about a set that's currently in production in 2 years... Knowing my track record with investments, probably.

It is stamped "Canada", so yeah, I'm assuming minted in the Great White North.

Yep, straight outta Winnipeg probably.

I would have thrown mine in the fountain at Cincinnati Union Terminal:

 

Wow that's a easy triple right there.  

Yea I was kicking myself too lol. The auctions I was watching all sold between $2400-2600.

The mintage was only 2000. So it is EXTREMELY rare.

I have a few of the other ones, mintage 10,000 and 15,000. Hoping they appreciate well.

These coins were released by the Canadian Mint so yep, only available in Canada (for once?).

I checked the Canadian mint it's US and Canada only.

"Meanwhile at the Hall of Justice...."

That's a crazy jump in price. Those superman fans are hard core

Coins are a big business if you know what you are doing. Problem is knowing what is legit. 

 

There is a guy on my radio that keeps coming on telling me that the US mint just found 10000 Gold coins from some year and they are going to be worth thousands, but I can get them for 49.99 if I call now! They will evidently only be around for the next 2 or 3 hours if that.

 

Whats weird is that I have heard him say this for the past year or so. I guess 2-3 hours was a little under-predicted.

Hindsight is 20 20.  If you question whether or not you should spend the money and feel it would be a risk, you probably shouldn't be spending it.

That's true if you can't afford to lose it in a speculation, you probably shouldn't invest in it

damn dude. Thats cool! I would have totally bought a couple of them had I known about them! Even one to keep myself hah
