They continued selling until those ran out and since by law any coins struck have to bear the year of their mintage they were unable to strike any more 2007 coins. So they are effectively sold out. Very good observation.

That way they don't have to have extra blanks on hand and money tied up in them. That makes the most sense.... but of course we are dealing with the mint. __________________ "These are the times that try men's' souls.

It would be interesting to see where van buren's liberty ends up. __________________ "These are the times that try men's' souls.

What would make you think that it would surpass it? Wouldn't the last coin produced typically be the high mark at least that is how this series is trending. With each successive coin produced, the mintages are less than the previous coin in the series. __________________ "These are the times that try men's' souls.

Yeah!!!! Unfortunately, my computer with all my photo stuff on it is broken and needs some extensive repair so I won't be able to post the pics any time soon. I am on my work computer and can't upload anything to it. I do have another computer that has been down for some time and I am hoping that I will have it up by Monday. __________________ "These are the times that try men's' souls.
