US Mint Sales: Some 2016 Commemorative Coins Mark Mintage Lows

19

The United States Mint stopped selling 2016-dated commemorative coins last Thursday, Dec. 29. Some of them now rank at or near the bottom of mintage charts.

2016-D Uncirculated National Park Service 100th Anniversary Half Dollar
CoinNews photo of a 2016-D Uncirculated National Park Service 100th Anniversary Half-Dollar. The commemorative coin set a new mintage low.

Sales of the clad 2016-D Uncirculated 50c National Park Service Commemorative Coin moved up 1,687 to 21,335, marking the lowest mintage of its type among modern commemoratives. The clad 2015-D 50c US Marshals Service Uncirculated Coin previously held the title at 30,231.

The gold 2016-W Proof $5 Mark Twain Commemorative Coin also sits at a new low within its category, rising 117 to 13,271, ending below the 15,843 total of the 2013-W Proof 5-Star Generals $5 Gold Coin.

Some final adjustments are likely, and that could push another commemorative coin to the bottom. The 2016-W Uncirculated $5 National Park Service Gold Coin climbed 742 to 5,201. That’s just 27 coins above the mintage low ranking of 5,174 for the 1997-W Uncirculated Jackie Robinson Gold Coin.

RODNEY MOORE

In this case the low mintage is due to the fact that “nobody wants them”, I.E. there is no demand. Commemoratives just don’t have any personal appeal to me and I feel like that they make way too many of them. Since they make them for everything under the sun, it devalues them. I’m sure some people will disagree with me, but if they reduced the number of commemoratives made, the money would still get spent on coins and you’d see more demand (from where it shifted) to regular proof and UC issues as well as gold , silver and… Read more »

I always like to see new low mintage sales. If you remember 1997 the stock market was pretty hot, same as now. This was an opportunity to purchase low mintage US Mint coins at low relative gold and silver prices. The 2015 Silver Proof Sets is a new low at 387,460 also, not mentioned above.

Dustyroads

I don’t think the Mint is making too many commemorative coins, although they could scale it back to one a year, that should keep them more interesting. I think the real issue which has taken the steam right out of commemorative issues are all the numerous other issues the Mint has been releasing. And one other small reason…price of gold, commemoratives used to be way more affordable.
BTW, Has no one noticed the new low for the silver proof set. The 2015 has slipped in as the new king beating out the 2012.

Dwight

The 1997-W Jackie Robinson Commemorative $5 Uncirculated Gold half eagle had low sales as buyers were more interested in the proof version. Therefore the uncirculated version sold only 5,174 coins. It was only aftermarket, that collectors finally realized that it was the lowest mintage modern gold coin. Thereafter due to its scarcity and demand, their prices rose from their issue price of $205 to $1,000. For PCGS MS70 prices were as high as $4,000.

Ken T

Even though the 2015 silver proof set is now the key date, I don’t think it will do as well as the 2012 silver proof set. The consumer had over 19 months to purchased the 2015 silver set as opposed to 7 or 8 months for the 2012 silver set. Obviously, the demand just isn’t there. The premiums are at an all-time high (more than double) for these silver proof sets. The 2015 set will undoubtedly be worth more than the issue price of $53.95. It looks as though the 2016 silver proof set will have a HIGHER mintage than… Read more »

In case you hadn’t notice the Clad and Silver Proof sets as well as the Uncirculated set are all no longer available at the US Mint… AND they are the LOWEST MINTAGE SETS since the mid 1950s for the Proofs and Early 1960s for the Uncirculated Set.

@Rodney Moore – I think you have proven that there really are very different kinds of US Mint customers out there. Personally, I really appreciate some of the commemorative issues! For instance, I am fine waiting a few years until an issue really resonates with me. I have found some of the modern half eagle commemorative designs to be the most elegant ever produced by the US Mint. Others are truly lackluster. This year, I think both the Mark Twain and National Park Service half eagles were absolutely stellar designs, but I only bought the latter from the mint (my… Read more »

I think we really won’t know which coins or sets are worth buying right now in the present as far as what are good investments. We can’t see into the future so what are we to do? Buy everything that comes out of the mint? Not all of us can do that. For me right now all I can do is to just buy what I like.

Roxie

Really like the NPS and very surprised how much I like the Mark Twain. The Mint did great job on these commems. But along with some of the other 2016 offers like the beautiful Centennial coins I have used up any 2017 budget , and maybe 2018 lol, for 2016 coins I wanted.

BTW, Mint still hasn’t lowered as of 9am the gold coin prices they increased yesterday. They are all still at original issue price which is not consistent with their pricing schedule….maybe they ‘know’ something about the near term price of gold lol

As of 11:40 AM EST Thursday January 5, 2017, the U.S. Mint website now shows their gold coin price increases.

@one fine dime “… I personally felt the half dollar design was waaaay better suited for the silver dollar. The NPS silver dollar showcased Old Faithful, which I feel is really a horrible feature for a coin (it’s just a big explosion of water). Old Faithful was already on the 1999 commemorative silver dollar for crying out loud! Truly embarrassing to see it again, ..” I bought the NPS gold unc since I liked the design and the proof NPS half because I wanted to see the bigger NPS logo. As for the NPS dollar, couldn’t agree more it’s a… Read more »

@one fine dime “..Alternatively, I would be bored to death as a collector buying every year’s AGE or ASE. Same obverse AND reverse design every single year, ugh. Too bad the platinum proofs aren’t more modestly priced …” Truly boring and the Mint just wants to keep it that way .. they can’t even bring themselves to have a one year design change for the 30th Anniversary .. and of course for proof ASE collectors there will always be hole for the year 2009 … The platinum proofs are nice but yeah very expensive … but the yearly design changes… Read more »

@Tinto – Other than venting about such things here (as we are obviously in agreement about that silver dollar), I struggle to understand what outlets are available for formal feedback on such things. Emails to the US Mint and CCAC? I really love the NA dollar coins, and I may one day buy a complete proof set, but again certain things just irk me as a collector. For one, it’s the literally microscopic edge lettering. There seems to be plenty of room for the year and mint mark on the obverse…and it had been there from the beginning (before the… Read more »

@one fine dime I don’t think the US Mint cares about any complaints from collectors … so long as their salaries and pensions aren’t affected that is .. I’ve basically given up on them since I completed the Pre-amble series … I was somewhat interested in the 2015 (U)HR gold which the Mint ballyhooed as Ultra High Relief only to ramp it down without any explanation (as far as I know) to a High Relief … same thing with the silver medal version which was supposed to come out the same year but mysteriously gets moved into the next and… Read more »

The most recent U.S. Mint sales figures as of January 22, 2017 reveal that the lowest mintage modern commemorative gold coin is now the 2016-W National Park Service Gold $5 Uncirculated $5 coin with a mintage of 5,164.
The second lowest mintage modern commemorative gold coin is the 1997-W Jackie Robinson uncirculated gold $5 coin with a mintage of 5,174.
The 2016-D National Park Service Uncirculated clad half dollar @ 21,016 is the lowest mintage coin of its type.

The most recent U.S. Mint sales figures as of January 29, 2017 reveal that the lowest mintage modern commemorative gold coin is the 2016-W National Park Service Gold Uncirculated $5 coin with a mintage of only 5,160. The second lowest mintage modern commemorative gold coin is the 1997-W Jackie Robinson uncirculated gold $5 coin with a mintage of 5,174. The 2016-D National Park Service Uncirculated clad half dollar @ 21,028 is the lowest mintage coin of its type.

One of the big reason for low purchase numbers is the price compared to the metal they are minted in. For instance, your $5 gold coin is going over $400.00 when the value of it hovers just over $300.00. That’s too much of a markup for me.

New LOW MINTAGE on the 2016 Proof Silver Eagle Congrats set sold by the mint is only 5,966 coins. WOW , With the pedigree of Congrats set on the slab NGC or PCGS, got to figure that coin in a pf 69 will be very close to the 95W price in a couple of years !!! Anyone agree ?

Ron,
The 2016 silver Eagle proof with Congrats set pedigree is not comparable to the 95W. Obviously, by looking at the sales numbers,not many people collect congrats sets!
I have lots and lots of silver Eagles, both as raw coins and certified, and I don’t have even one with Congrats set pedigree. 99.999% of other silver eagle collectors are the same way. There’s not any demand to drive the price up for it.To most people, the congrats set pedigree on the certified coin is not going to make it worth even one dollar more.
