+Bartians Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Good luck at that price. Not Tempted yet.But a good looking coin none the less. Quote Link to comment
+TheWeatherWarrior Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Gold and Silver are the only coins that should cost more than $10! Quote Link to comment
+steben6 Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 (edited) Is that price for real? Edited to delete the unintentional snarky comment. Edited February 13, 2013 by steben6 Quote Link to comment
+LadyBee4T Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Actually those are very rare coins. I think that Chris Mackey told me there are only 10 of these sets as they were errors. I've been told that they have sold for as high as $400. Quote Link to comment
+The Moop Along Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Well, I'll tell you right now that if anyone wants my set for $400, just drop me an email. I'll leave work right now and get it in the mail to you . . . TMA Quote Link to comment
+fox-and-the-hound Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 They are pretty rare, but that's extremely high, too. There were only 10 Black Nickel made and only 4 ever let out of my hands, but they weren't error coins, they were Artist Editions. The error was just in my trying to make a cool coin with a lot of layers in all black nickel - lol. You need a good light source to see all the detail in glossy black. I just didn't think that the tracking codes wouldn't be able to be read. I don't think I've ever seen one of the AEs for sale except the couple I donated to support some good causes. I've seen the prices go high like that during a bidding war, but I'm surprised to see it starting that high. I'm glad to see the set is being kept together though since they do share a matched tracking code. Hard to believe it's been over six years since the design was introduced. Quote Link to comment

I've been told that they have sold for as high as $400. Any proof of that? Would love to see it. If rarity is the only criteria, I'll make a ton of single run coins and charge a boat load.

TMA Not funny at all, the cacher selling it was a huge fan of all things "skulls" and his girlfriend at the time was a member of our local caching group and asked if I would sell her a Fates coin to surprise him with for his birthday. Feeling generous, I gave her the matched set to gift him with. They had some excellent skull themed puzzle caches in our area for quite awhile. Quote Link to comment

See Chris' post #11 for the proof. I was wrong about the error though as he corrected me to say it was actually the artist edition. He still has most of these sets in his possession it sounds like. I feel very privileged to have a set. So yes it is really rare. Quote Link to comment
