I have one of these. I love the entire series. I have the Mercury and the SLQ. These are great and not much of a premium over a gold eagle. With that mintage you know the premiums over the eagle (or gold spot) can only go up. These only have 0.1% copper, but they can still get copper spots. I know this because my gold Mercury dime developed one, inside an ANACS slab! No spots on the open coins, only the slab. Murphy’s law.
That’s a beautiful gold coin!
