The $5 coin mentioned in the original post will be a gold coin, so it will be pretty expensive. But there will also be silver $1 coins and clad half dollar coins, with the same design and same curved feature, so those who can't afford the gold $5 coin won't get shut out.



More information from the U.S. Mint's website: link.

I did place my order today. This is the first commemorative coin I have ever bought from the MINT.

I can't believe that people are able to sell these for a premium on ebay even as a presale when people could just go to the site to buy one (I saw some Gold ones sell for $100 on ebay).

None of the Gold Coins have sold for $100.00.

Also, some people don't like to buy directly from the US Mint.

Sorry I meant $100 over the price of Gold Coins being sold directly from the US Mint.
