| US Mint Sales: 2010 Proof Set Tops 400K, Silver Eagles Jump |
| August 26, 2010 at 7:46 PM |
For starters, collectors finished off the 2010 proof Platinum Eagles. All 10,000 coins sold since their launch on Thursday August 12. The last 1,732 sold between Monday, August 16 and Thursday, August 19, when orders were put on a waiting list. The Mint officially changed the platinum coin's status to "Sold Out" on August 23.(...) |
Demand for United States Mint products skyrocketed compared to recent weeks. Collectors went after sets, coins, and bullion. Maybe it was the time of the year or it was the change in precious metals prices, but whatever the reason, sales jumped according to the latest round of the United States Mint weekly data.
