Why I Shouldn't have bought the Centenary of Cobb & Co $1 Coin

[@bradsteven3038]

Keep up the great content. I have purchased the Australia Quarter Sovereign 2024 Gold Proof Coin for my son’s birthday present to start his collection. Any thought on this coin and potential growth long term Thanks

[@DantheCollectingMan]

I think it will become very collectible in years to come! I’m so glad I got some 👌 my video on the sovereigns will come out in the next few weeks 👍

@@DantheCollectingMan thanks for the reply. Look forward to the video 👍

I think these type of 1 dollar coins you or don't like them. As I put my coins in a folder as you build up a collection then go back through the years of the type of releases. That's when you start to appreciate the different type coins that have been released through the ages. And you are right the value of some of them to down and some go up.

Thanks for sharing. Dan

I think it should be noted that the RRP of the 2023 Legacy $1 coin was $15 upon release in March 2023, so they are maintaining their value. Some recent sales have them sold for $20+, even as recently as 10 days ago. The Smith Family coin also had a RRP of $15 upon release and is maintaining value. I think the Cobb & Co. coin, whilst a one-off minting, does represent the theme of Australiana. Also, the maximum mintage figure may not necessarily represent the final mintage figure, so it may end up having less coins minted than the earlier Legacy coin, making it rarer and possibly more collectable. Further, depending on the length of his reign, it's possible that being one of the earlier coins with a King Charles III effigy may influence future values, or if his health declines, among the last. For now, I think it's a bit too soon to tell. Appreciate your thoughts and, as always, great video 😀

[@DantheCollectingMan]

Thanks so much for your input. I do hope it doesn’t lose value. The coin itself is a very nice design. I just don’t think many people would be interested in the subject. But I’m happy to be proven wrong 😑 thanks Dan

@@DantheCollectingMan I'll keep my fingers crossed for you 😀

[@lynnnickstricks]

Purchased mine from Australia post. I’ve been to Ballerat and am happy to have it in my collection. You can’t buy much for $17.50 these days.

[@DantheCollectingMan]

Thanks so much for sharing. It’s definitely a nice coin

[@peterepete-uv1oh]

Thanks Dan, great to see you again on BN live today. I cant get to Perth. It would be great to see a "Dan collecting Man" video from there. good luck getting a ticket. All the best mate

[@DantheCollectingMan]

100% will be doing a video for Perth 👌 I got a ticket ☺️

You won't have a very big coin collection if you only want coins worth more than original cost. $1 were very collectable before coloured $2 came on the scene. I still like them and like the look of the cobb and co coin and have the card and pnc. I collect what i like the look of not expecting to make money as i don't sell them anyway.

Spot on Wisey

[@leigh0lom]

@@wisey95 I agree it's about putting a collection together then look at them over a period of time. That's when you appreciate the collection of the same size cards in folders

[@DantheCollectingMan]

I do agree with you. I think this one was something that I’m just not interested in. So I should not have gotten it. Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts. Dan

[@kaynef6637]

Unless it’s got silver or gold in it what’s it really going to be worth when I die ? That’s how I look at it , unless like you said you really like horse carriages 😂 . Good honest review 👍

[@DantheCollectingMan]

Thanks for your positive feedback 👍 Dan

[@TimBoss2000]

I like the capsule and the coin is nice

[@DantheCollectingMan]

Thanks 👍

[@peterpullthrough]

I look at what similar coins from the past are now worth which is why I didn't buy it. The mintage number is because 7500 will be on PNC 30000 on card or whatever

[@DantheCollectingMan]

Good point, I don’t think the PNC will be very collectible either 🤔

[@peterpullthrough]

@@DantheCollectingMan 90% of what comes out will never appreciate long term .the best buy this year we’re the 2024 swan pattern silver dollars gold if you were lucky, but the purple poppy $2 coins a silver version as well come out in November so who knows

[@UKDark_Mark]

I actually like this coin - the design, subject matter and packaging IMO are all pretty good. But you are right - it will just get consigned to the “oh I’d forgotten about that one” pile of commemoratives that get pumped out world wide every year. Thanks for showing - I would have definitely missed that one otherwise 👍

[@DantheCollectingMan]

Glad you enjoyed it, thanks 👍

[@chrisa6082]

I got it as well. I was the same with regards to collectability. Definitely won't have the value like other sets of the same mintage (...bluey 3x pack). Although the coloured 50 cent NAIDOC coin seems to be selling well (it was even before the mint sold out, $40 - $60, eBay scalpers).

[@DantheCollectingMan]

So I’m not the only one 😉

[@JimWemm-ql1ge]

My thoughts as well Dan. I like the coin and would love to find it in my change though when I saw the ballot come out taking into account the price as well as the postage for just 1 coin I could not see that much value in it. 🍻

[@DantheCollectingMan]

At least you made the correct decision 👍

[@robinalexander5772]

I would like to add, money is tight right now, don't buy what you can't afforded

[@DantheCollectingMan]

Totally agree 👍

[@TheBlondeSuperman]

How about the Aust Post PNC version limited at 7,000? is that a game changer or does the same rule of thumb apply?

[@DantheCollectingMan]

For me, the same rules apply. 👍

[@TheBlondeSuperman]

@@DantheCollectingMan cheers mate appreciate the advice 👍

[@historyinthehanger]

Is it going to increase in value ?

[@DantheCollectingMan]

I personally don’t think so. Thanks Dan

[@historyinthehanger]

@@DantheCollectingMan ok thank you

[@winstonirazabal8084]

I have collecion from 1966 to 1999 coin ( 5 cents ) with many errors.i good ?

[@DantheCollectingMan]

Coins with errors are definitely collectible 👍 thanks Dan

[@haroldmclean3755]

The Mint release way too many commerative $1 coins in my opinion , They'll be releasing another one next week celebrating the memory of yesterday's delicious BBQ Chicken 🐔 lol😂👍

[@DantheCollectingMan]

I agree 100% 🤣😂

[@mark10270]

No one forces you to buy them, most genuine collectors buy the coin because they like it so if you don’t like it don’t buy it, just because you can’t flip it for 10x RRP doesn’t meant genuine collectors won’t want it.

[@DantheCollectingMan]

I totally agree with you. This is one of the first coins I bought that I had no interest in. And didn’t know why I bought it. So just sharing my thoughts. Thanks so much for your input. Dan

[@mark10270]

@@DantheCollectingMan I think it’s a very well designed coin so that’s why I bought it, I do like the detail in it.

[@TheWaysOfLegends]

i feel $1 aren't worth it
