First-day sales of the six different 2018 Breast Cancer Awareness Commemorative Coins combined to 37,778, according to United States Mint spokesman Michael White.
Released Thursday, available options include $5 pink gold coins — a first for the U.S. Mint, silver dollars and clad half-dollars in collector qualities of proof and uncirculated.
Each of the pinks gold coins originally had an order limit of 1 per household. The Mint lifted those restrictions on Friday.
