Firefighters Coin

I got on line at 0700 hrs this morning and got my order down for two of each of the coins. No problems.

I have just got off the RAM website and both coins now showing "unavailable".

Does that mean that have sold out or what?

Yes Bruce sold out

I waited on the phone for 2 hours to get my order

Hm, I saw the mintmark coin was unavailable this morning - I didn't think they'd sell out so soon.

Triggersmob · October 29, 2020, 09:54:14 PM

I went online here as soon as I saw an email from the mint telling me they are now released.
that was about 6:30PM W.A. time. Too late, all sold out.

Shouldn't be an issue, as the stated mintage is unlimited. They will just re-assess how many extra orders they need to fill and mint more.

Cheers

The C mintmark firefighters coin has a mintage of 40000

JeffH · October 30, 2020, 10:06:21 AM

The C mintmark one looks to be sold out so no more available from the mint shop. "This product is limited to 25 per customer." That means plenty of them will be on eBay -so far more than 140 listings, many at highly inflated prices. A few dealers have listed them at the RAM shop price though. So will pay to look around if you really want some.

Strangely the no mintmark coin, with unlimited mintage "is limited to 3 per customer."

Hm, I hope the non-mintmark coin is unlimited mintage - I don't want to have to wait for the $2 bubble to burst before I can fill this gap.

Woah I received a newsletter at 6 in the morning with presale available 4 minutes later, it was all sold out. You can see it has been like 150 sales on eBay, all about 3 times the initial prices, pretty crazy to see.

This was announced on the Ram website ? How do you guys do in WA lol, do we have to wait for it at 4 in the morning ?

Well will be waiting for another one I guess

Mister T · October 31, 2020, 08:11:42 AM

I think there was an email last week saying they were coming out on the 29th (not sure what time sales actually opened).
