Beauteous flamingos, both wading and in full flight, are highlighted in elegant 24-karat rose gold plating! Want more? The tiny mintage limit of just 600 makes this numismatic work of art a true winner!

We love the new Flamingos: Beauty and Grace design with its vibrant rose-gold coloration, but we love the exclusivity of this coin even more. Just 600 of these beauties will ever be struck, and no more than that number of lucky collectors and savvy investors can ever possess this truly rare masterpiece. Please see the section below for our comparison between this rarity and the higher-mintage (and long sold out) Gilded Honey Bee and Gilded Peacock proofs.

The gracefully beautiful Flamingo is known for both its flaming pink plumage as well as its ability to stand on one leg. The American flamingo is native to Florida, the Yucatan Peninsula, the West Indies and Caribbean, and northern South America, including the Galapagos Islands. It is also known as the Caribbean flamingo.

This remarkable vignette sports a pair of flamingos wading in the foreground, exquisitely detailed with each and every feather carefully engraved. In the background three of their compadres take flight, all highlighted in beauteous, pure rose gold. The rim has also been finished in rose gold. There are no legends on the obverse to detract from the sublime beauty of the design.

The Flamingos Beauty & Grace Gold Proof is just as remarkable, and quite a sight rarer—the mintage is only 50! Graceful and elegant, these birds represent nothing less than a numismatic work of art, a visual feast in precious metal!

Extremely Low Mintage—Just 600
In 2022, the Gilded Honey Bee Silver Proof sold out in record time and now trades for multiples of its issue price. Last year's Gilded Regal Peacock Silver Proof sold out at the mint on pre-release, and is now very difficult to find. Now along comes the Gilded Flamingos Silver Proof. Can you guess what we think is going to happen?

Before you answer, here's the rub—The Gilded Honey Bee and Gilded Peacock both had a mintage of 1,000. But this Gilded Flamingos Silver Proof has a mintage limit of only 600. Just six hundred! That's right, they reduced the mintage by 40%, or 400 coins! Now guess what we think is going to happen?! Our advice—secure yours today!

The pure gold version of this coin, the Flamingos Beauty & Grace Gold Proof, has a mintage of just 50! Talk about an investment piece!

With a mintage limit of just 600, don't delay—make this majestic masterpiece yours today before the price soars!

Flamingos
The American flamingo is a large wading bird with reddish-pink plumage.  Formerly known as the "rosy flamingo", their plumage gets its pink color from its diet; they eat both algae and invertebrates that are rich in carotenoids. The name flamingo comes from Portuguese or Spanish flamengo, meaning "flame-colored," and an apt moniker it is. It is closely related to the greater flamingo and Chilean flamingo. It is the only flamingo that naturally inhabits North America along with the Neotropical realm.

The American flamingo is a cultural icon for the U.S. state of Florida, where it was formerly abundant, though largely extirpated by 1900. It is now uncommon, with a few small, resident populations. Although flamingos are native to the tropical south of the U.S., hurricanes have been known to drive flocks of flamingos north, leading to rare sightings in Kentucky, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Virginia. Most of the birds return to where they came from, but occasionally, one breaks off from a flock so that there are examples of a flamingo hanging out by itself for years.

A group of flamingoes is called a "flamboyance" or a "stand." Who knew? Their life expectancy of 40 years is one of the longest of all birds. Who knew, redux?
