Look at the mintage of the 08 w unc platinum coins. When Mike wrote his blog in Dec 08 these were selling for around 1069 after the mint had these priced over 2400 when platinum reached its highest point. Few would pay 2400 when plat tanked to $750 lower than gold at 850!!!!!!!Maybe alot of us collectors just put them into our collections not worried about making a quick dollar on ebay!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433024393760369647.post-53291031877023562202010-01-10T15:45:34.307-08:002010-01-10T15:45:34.307-08:00If you look back at Michaels blogs in Nov 08 and D...If you look back at Michaels blogs in Nov 08 and Dec. 08 he kept you abreast of the number of unc eagles, buffs and platinum offerin gs, yet only three to five people commented on the blogs.

You rarely see an eagle four coin set for sale on Ebay especially a graded version but buffalos can be found all the time. Since demand for buffalos is much more the listing should be much less than the eagles as well. It just seems that the 08's are commanding the highest price right now.

Your que...Anonymous at January 10, 2010 8:13 AM. <br /><br />Your question has been answered several times before. Mintages alone do not contribute to high values. A combination of low mintages (supply) and high demand result in high values. That's Economics 101 - the Law of Supply and Demand.<br /><br />First Spouse Gold Coins - values are low simply because there is not much demand for most of these coins.<br /><br />Similarly, there may be identical mintages for the eagles and buffaloes, but collectors seem to want the buffalo coins more. Higher demand leads to collectors willing to pay more to own one of the buffaloes.<br /><br />Economics 101.
