About the only coin I'm looking forward to is this year's Double Bison,
and there's no info available from the mint, website, phone calls, or
otherwise.

Ok, I give. What is it, and where did you hear about it?

It was part of the Presidental Golden Dollar legislation. Title II, in
the link below, directs the Mint to strike a $50 gold bullion coin
using the Buffalo Dollar designs, with appropriate changes:

If anyone's interested, Title III of the link above specifies changing
the cent in 2009.

The link doesn't work for me. Opens a page with a request to resubmit
your search.
About the Gold Buffalo coin ... I'd have to decide whether or not I
wanted to limit myself to a single purchase for a half year :

The link changed, but here's the new one:

If that one fails, you can go to the homepage and look up bill # S1047

I buy boxes of nickels and dimes from Bank
American. I get my statehood quarters from
them as well. If I open a roll and find damaged
coins...I'll try to get coins of better condition from a different
bank. Sometimes this works and sometimes good looking coins just aren't
available.
