Demand for collector coins mostly declined compared to the prior week's figures, the latest US Mint sales stats reveal.
2009 UHR Double Eagles pulled back severely, with new weekly sales increasing by just 562. Higher gold prices and, therefore, the higher UHR coin price has not been favorable, as the numbers are the second lowest since the coins went on sale Jan. 22. Demand for First Spouse Gold Coins was down as well. The Sarah Polk proof coin showed the biggest gain, but only with an increase of 79.
Bullion coin sales are solid this month. Silver Eagles have already marked their best October ever, despite sales slowing slightly over the past seven days. As for 2009 Buffalo Gold Coins, in two weeks 114,000 have been purchased. The 2009 Buffalo Gold Proof Coin was released today. Sales figures will begin to appear for the first time in next week's report.
The following tables list the latest US Mint sales data as of Sunday, October 25, 2009. The 2nd column provides the latest year-to-date coin sales total while the third column lists the weekly increase.
Below the tables are coin sales summaries from other web sites.
