Hobbyists were waiting and wondering what the new prices of various Mint collector coins were going to be following the rapid fall in the price of silver.
In particular, sales of the 2011-P uncirculated collector version of the Gettysburg National Military Park 5-ounce silver coin had hardly started when they were suspended, going on sale Sept. 22 and being taken down Sept. 26.
Original issue price of $279.95 matched the prices for the 2010 5-ounce collector coins, but it now will likely be lower as a result of the roughly 25 percent drop in the price of silver.
