The taper serves a couple of purposes; it helps distribute the pressure spreading the forces, spreading it out, giving it a bigger footing against the base of the die sets, also making a self centering element when using a collar holder. This is only one style of die formats, this being "Columbia style" named after the Columbia Tool company in California.
Proof coins are very bad as an investment. Just buy gold bars instead, nobody but a small circle of coin collectors cares about this stuff. It's not worth the extra price.
@@gregoryhunt4427 is anything I said wrong? Relying in a small market that only consists of collectors is a bad choice for an investment imho. These markets can crash very easily, and in desperate times it's diffcult to sell a lot of these coins. I rather buy pure metals, you can sell these at any times and their price is stable.
Is the release Thursday or June 26? Or am I not using a calendar correctly?
I wonder if you can actually buy the sculpture of it the mold hanging up on the wall

It's your opinion, I can't say you're right or wrong
@@gregoryhunt4427 i tried to back up my opinion with arguments, maybe you could do the same and tell my why coins are an safe investment?
@@dr.doppeldecker3832 Maybe because a collector buys what he likes from a personal perspective rather than buying something as an investment?
