So what is everyone thinking will be THE COLLECTIBLE coin(s) for 2018? 2018 Uncirculated AU coins? 2018 Limited Edition Silver Proof set? Other?
BTW, how long does it take for natural toning to occur on AG coins?

Mike Unser, TY for all your work! The bot is a pita. But I understand.

PALLADIUM Proof will be the only thing that will be the cat’s meow @ the United States Lost@Sea Mint…….
