SSBS Medallion Looking Good!!!

[victor kruger]

SSSB coin, buy it if you want but for me its pretty much as maddog says, a marketing stunt for a sub standard round. If people wish to buy then thats upto them, for me there are far better options of investing in silver thank you.

[SYGY]

I would much rather buy coins with anti fed meaning & message,they are scumbags,,,i get a roll ,milkspot free assured as that problem is resolved,,in about a month

p.s.taku,mapleleaf,wildlife or skeleton??? it's halloween...skeleton won!

For the amount of work and costs going into producing a new coin from scratch (two sculptures to pay and many other costs), it is fairly priced. The coin tells a story and I think it is a very vallid story. If you don't like the coin, don't buy it. That is your right. Slamming the coin because you personally do not like the coin is a waste of your energy.

I can appreciate his hard work, and personal investment. That doesn't mean I have to like the design, or the coin itself. If I want to "waste my energy" as you said stating I don't like it then that is between me and myself.

If you don't like people bashing it, then don't comment on it

See how unintelligent what you are saying sounds? I love in this day and age, if you don't agree with the majority you are just supposed to shut up and say nothing. I have no problem with anyone here liking it, and am not telling you to not buy the coin.... I just personally don't like the design, and personally won't be buying one.

I very much agree with kshymkiw assessment and kudos to him for saying it. I get so frustrated with society's lack of being able to share ones opinion openly without people comming at you. This is a forum were we get to share ideas, opinions, agreements and disagreements. Hopefully, we are all big enough people to except when someone doesnt agree with us. I personally purchased 3 of the coins. I like the story behind them and the symbolism. kshymkiw has every right to say that he doesnt like the coin. I for one appreciate those who agree and disagree. It makes one think, grow... ect ect. That my 2 cents thrown into the mix...

Why thank you sir.

[Honey]

I actually like the coin, but haven't bought any of them. It is definately different.

For once, I am going to disagree with Shimmy and give this coin my absolute approval. I love it.
Can I order it from the UK?

Yup.

Well if this eBay price is true, I would dump a few and use the profits to keep the stack rising.

I for one am curious on this medallion as i am expecting a full roll in a month or so,,,and have seen so much drama on it on many boards ect,,,,i think it will be a numi no doubt,i just wanna know how many they are blowing out the door.

[SYGY]

got an e-mail back on the SSBS Medallion


1) While this is a BU product, we are working on obtaining higher
quality blanks to help with these issues, but not necessarily "cure"
them. If, when you receive your medallions, you are totally unsatisfied
with them, we are offering exchanges once we obtain the
better blanks.

2) An exact mintage number has not been released. The number is over
50,000oz because the sale changed from an ordering cap to an ordering
deadline. No more medallions may be ordered to date, so once the
number is verified, it will be final.

Feel free to contact me with any further questions.

While I see your logic, I think I'll just hold onto them for a decade or two.

[dave606]

I purchased these coins to show some gratitude for all the videos Chris made. I also thought what the hell it is still an oz. of silver so what can you lose? However after getting mine i was a little sorry i didn't spend my money on some really nice coins that had the same premium. The quality has to be the worst coins in my pretty substantial collection. I thought the design he was showing was something i would like and never really thought they would be a collectors coin. However i would never sell these on ebay to anyone. I would feel guilty selling these to anyone without seeing them. If you want to support Chris fine, but do not buy these with the anticipation of having a valuable numi. I am surprised by the quality. I don't know if i got rejects by mistake or they are all like mine. These are not Eagles or Maples or anything from the big mints. Were these a ploy just to make money or a first attempt and are the best they can do i will never know. I would like to hear from Chris as to is he proud of what he shipped or as disappointed as i am with the quality. I wrote to him but he never replied. I just wanted to share my experience and would like to hear what other people thought.

[Viper_99]

With that comment you are making me a little nervous! I have not received mine.

[cmcirillo]

I just saw this while watching a youtube video... very interesting the similarity and correlation.. wonder what the 5 arrows mean to the R Family... The video seems to describe them as 1 arrow per family for the 5 R's.

here is the link to the you tube video...
