Another new year dated product debuts in the latest United States Mint weekly sales report. The 2010 Disabled Veterans Silver Coins shined with three-day sales hitting nearly 100,000.
Broken out, 66,209 of the proof options were sold along with 32,149 of the uncirculated. In total, collectors grabbed 98,358 and made their sales debut one of the better ones.
As a comparison, "last year's highly popular and sold out Abraham Lincoln Silver Dollar debuted with three-day sales of 116,558 for the proof and 61,164 for the uncirculated, totaling to 177,722," writes CoinNews. "The final commemorative of last year, the Louis Braille Silver dollar, came in with initial sales of 28,880 for the proof and 11,964 for the uncirculated, totaling 40,844."
The American Veterans Disabled for Life Silver Dollars are the first of two commemoratives to be released in 2010, with the 2010 Boy Scout Silver Coins to follow on March 23, 2010.
While the proof and uncirculated silver dollars came in number one and number two as leaders in collector coin sales, the 2010 Presidential $1 Coin Proof Set was right behind. Another 25,512 were sold, bringing the total to 326,464 in less than one month of availability.
American Eagle bullion coins improved greatly. The Silver Eagles had not moved for a full seven days in the last report. The pace picked up and they have since advanced another 1.25 million. Year-to-date sales for the one-ounce coins are at 6,067,500. Gold Eagles stood out as well. They nearly doubled the prior weekly increase. Numbers increased by 30,000 to 181,000 for the year.
