Gold Rises Slightly to Hit New High; Silver Advances
US Mint Sales: 2010 Bullion Buffalo Gold Tops 200K; Proof Coins...
United States Mint coin sales figures dipped for a second straight week following higher levels during the prior two.
The numbers were lifted weeks back with the release of a core annual product, the 2010 Silver Proof Set. Last week's sales report, while less robust overall, did show increasing First Spouse Gold Coin demand. But then those were helped by the launch of Buchanan's Liberty. There was not any new US Mint releases to support other products this time around, and the numbers show it.

US Mint Products for January Include 2011 Proof Set and 2011...
The United States Mint on Monday said that in 2011 it will release annual products much earlier than in past years, with core mint and proof sets available in January 2011.
Specifically mentioned in the US Mint's news announcement were the 2011 Proof Set, the 2011 Silver Proof Set and the uncirculated 2011 Mint Set. Their early January launch will mark the first time in at least a decade that major products will be available so early into a year.
The front-loaded released schedule is a part of the Mint's long term plan first discussed by U.S. Mint Director Ed Moy in 2008 when it significantly trimmed its portfolio to focus resources on core offerings.
