This is neat looking, but I said to myself a silver coin or an Ultra Breeze jacket?  I ordered the Ultra Breeze Jacket.

With a limited minting of onlly 1,500 coins,I would expect them to be gone from the shelves before anyone could count to five, after they go on sale.
And I wouldn't want to be caught in the doorway when it opens (remember black Friday a few years ago....).
