In a twist away from the past, the latest US Mint coin sales figures represent two combined weeks of data instead of the normal one.
With two blizzards running through the East Coast and the Washington, D.C., area within a week, the United States Mint's headquarters was shut down for four days from Feb. 8 to 11. Bullion American Eagle shipments were delayed as were deliveries out of the Philadelphia Mint. Sales stats were not sent out.
With a fresh week are fresh numbers. New to the list this week are 2010 Presidential $1 Dollar Coin Proof Sets. Sales came in at a very robust 224,426 from their Feb. 11 launch date to Feb 14. The sets are already at more than 1/3 the level of the 2009s, which finished at 624,761. This year's set features $1s honoring Millard Fillmore, Franklin Pierce, James Buchanan and Abraham Lincoln. The Lincoln dollar is no doubt helping sales greatly. Collectors have been running to buy any new coin with Lincoln's image.
Demand for gold coins improved with a rebound in gold prices. First Spouse Gold Coins jumped impressively. The last weekly report had combined sales coming in at a negative 188. The latest figures are up by 943. The proof 2009 Buffalo Gold Coin also jumped, rising 1,327 for total sales of 46,828.
Standing out as well were 2009 US Mint Sets. They were the biggest unit gainer in the numismatic column with an increase of 15,244.
American Eagle bullion coins have been quiet, with numbers adjusted only once in the last 1 1/2 weeks. Gold Eagles are at 50,000 for the month while Silver Eagles have reached 1.25 million.
The following table lists US Mint sales stats. The first three columns provide weekly increases between the listed time periods, offering a sense of recent trends. The final column provides the latest totals for US Mint coin products as of Sunday, February 14, 2010.
