The uncirculated Mary Todd Lincoln First Spouse Gold Coin sold out Thursday, leaving the proof version as the only available option left from the United States Mint.
Both gold coins launched December 2, and as expected were a bit more popular initially when compared against other recent issues in the one half ounce, 24-karat gold coin series. The US Mint anticipated higher demand and said it would release up to 20,000 across both options, a higher mintage than the other 2010 First Spouse Gold Coins [...]
The United States Mint this week confirmed that it will make the Yosemite National Park 5 Oz Silver Uncirculated Coin available on Thursday, June 9, 2011.
The three-inch diameter, .999 fine silver collector coin had been listed in the Mint’s June schedule for an expected release on the 9th, but its launch was set in stone and release details affirmed in a media statement the bureau issued Thursday.
The United States Mint will release up to 27,000 Yosemite silver coins beginning on June 9 at noon ET. Unless silver’s direction changes radically in the next few days, it will go on sale at $279.95 [...]
The United States Mint Yellowstone National Park 5 Oz Silver Uncirculated Coin sold out late Wednesday afternoon.
All orders abruptly stopped without the option of a waiting list for collectors who might have hoped an older order was cancelled. Wyoming’s Yellowstone silver coin went straight to the US Mint’s online "No Longer Available" page [...]
The 2011 Proof American Platinum Eagle coin moved briskly in its opening days, despite a collector-distracting holiday weekend, a deterring price point, and an increased mintage limit which can suppress call-to-action buying.
Given said factors, the coin’s debuting sales were not only comparable, but better-than-expected when contrasted against the past two issues which sold out in a single week [...]
The United States Mint on Tuesday began fulfilling orders for 2011 American Silver Eagle Bullion Coins from its facility in San Francisco, CA, in addition those minted at its West Point facility in NY.
Since their introduction in 1986, the American Silver Eagle has become one of the world’s most recognizable and best selling silver coins. The bullion issues have been produced at various U.S. Mint locations over the years, but for more than a decade they had been struck only in West Point [...]
The 2011 Proof American Platinum Eagle Coin was released Thursday, May 26, for an opening price of $2,092.00. Now the question is, how long will it take for the United States Mint to sell all 15,000 of them, assuming it will indeed sell out.
In 2009 and 2010, collectors jumped at their chance to get the newly designed coins, and each sold out in about a week. Of course back then the United States Mint launched them later in the year, struck fewer of them, and sold them for much less [...]
Several products prominently appear for the first time in the latest weekly sales figures released by the United States Mint. Two of them share the same size, the collector Yellowstone National Park 5-Ounce Silver Uncirculated Coin and the investor Olympic National Park 5-Ounce Silver Bullion Coin.
The collector Yellowstone silver uncirculated coin launched Tuesday, May 17. First day sales reached 18,143, or 67.2 percent of their 27,000 maximum. The United States Mint indicated 24,626 were sold as of Sunday, leaving 2,374 remaining. It took two weeks for the debuting Hot Springs National Park 5-Ounce Silver Uncirculated Coin to sell out. It appears the Yellowstone 5-ouncer will soon join it. [...]
The opening $1,760.00 price for the newly released 2011 American Buffalo Gold Proof Coin appears to have pressured demand. Fewer of the collector 24-karat gold coins were purchased during its opening days than in previous years, according to newly released United States Mint sales figures.
The United States Mint released the proof coin Thursday, May 19. Collectors scooped up 5,782 by [...]
Rising gold prices will kick-in automatic price increases for United States Mint numismatic gold coins, returning them to their highest levels ever.
The Mint on Wednesday before noon Eastern Time is expected to raise the prices for its 2011 Proof Gold Eagle Coins, 2011 Uncirculated Gold Eagle Coin, First Spouse Gold Coins and Proof American Gold Buffalo. The opening price for the 2011 Proof Platinum Eagle Coin which launches on Thursday is also now known [...]
The United States Mint is accepting orders for the collector 2011 American Buffalo Gold Proof Coin for $1,760.00. Sales started on May 19 at noon Eastern Time.
These one ounce, .9999 fine 24-karat gold coins are the sixth issue in the series that started in 2006. They feature the same basic design by James Earle Fraser as the 1913 circulating nickel known by most as either the "Indian Head Nickel" or the "Buffalo Nickel." [...]
