so is anyone going to explain this?

[accumulator]

Yes Serial, in 2007 it was widely rumoured that the 2007 50 cent coin would have a very low mintage number of 1.8 million,so everyone bought up big on rolls only to find out a few months later that the actually mintage was 18 million.
I still have about 10 rolls of them,i learnt my lesson that year & will never get caught like that again,the old saying " once bitten twice shy" comes to mind.

[serial]

thanks accumulator.
can you expand on what you mean by rumoured? was it a ram release like this one or just a rumour amongst collectors?

[accumulator]

Just rumored among collectors,i suspect someone that had a heap of the rolls started the rumor.
No it was'nt a RAM release.
I think you'll be right with this release though,the prices have come down quite a bit in the last few days but i think the rolls start to level out a bit now.

[serial]

thanks a heap for the info accumulator

[robbiegal]

I remember seeing coin club members buying heaps and showing off their 50c loot
it was seriously considered to be the lowest mintage going
I don't know exactly where the advice came from but it was well spread around the collector community

[serial]

Well I hope this case is different!

Well I hope this case is different!

As this was all started by the RAM in the first place by handing out these rolls to the dealers to make a quick profit, I imagine it would be very unethical for the RAM to create more rolls and issue them just to the dealers again:dodgy:

[Coins from Vending]

with 24 million 2014 $1 coins issued for circulation I can't see why they would need to release more??

The rolls contain MOR dollars of which there's only going to be 1 million.

my hunch is that the RAM is measuring the viability of producing unc year rolls again, but in 'limited edition' numbers so that they can increase profits

jeepers - didn't they sell them to the dealers for the standard $29.95 to start with?

they are $9.95 ahead to begin with on each roll

they may have given the dealers 'a sweetener' but there would be a fiscal rational behind that sugar coated mint roll

do you really want to know the true price of the rolls to dealers, derrrrrrr face value
