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. __________________ “Punishment is the way in which society expresses its denunciation of wrongdoing and, in order to maintain respect for law, it is essential that the punishment inflicted for grave crimes should adequately reflect the revulsion felt by the great majority of citizens for them.” Lord Justice Denning of the Court of Appeals in the United Kingdom   12-09-2008, 10:24 PM   #17 (permalink) jaceravone Member     Join Date: Jul 2007 Location: United States of America Posts: 3,667 My Mood: Just got my baby back from the mint today.

It would be interesting to see where van buren's liberty ends up. __________________ “Punishment is the way in which society expresses its denunciation of wrongdoing and, in order to maintain respect for law, it is essential that the punishment inflicted for grave crimes should adequately reflect the revulsion felt by the great majority of citizens for them.” Lord Justice Denning of the Court of Appeals in the United Kingdom   12-11-2008, 02:23 PM   #22 (permalink) elaine 1970 Numismatist     Join Date: Jan 2007 Posts: 5,971 My Mood: most likely it will be ahead or surpass jackson's liberty and adams's spouse.   12-11-2008, 03:31 PM   #23 (permalink) jaceravone Member     Join Date: Jul 2007 Location: United States of America Posts: 3,667 My Mood: Quote: Originally Posted by elaine 1970 most likely it will be ahead or surpass jackson's liberty and adams's spouse. 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. __________________ “Punishment is the way in which society expresses its denunciation of wrongdoing and, in order to maintain respect for law, it is essential that the punishment inflicted for grave crimes should adequately reflect the revulsion felt by the great majority of citizens for them.” Lord Justice Denning of the Court of Appeals in the United Kingdom   12-11-2008, 04:11 PM   #24 (permalink) elaine 1970 Numismatist     Join Date: Jan 2007 Posts: 5,971 My Mood: no. the two liberties are most likely to get more sales. so the mintages should be higher than most of the series coming later on.   12-18-2008, 08:29 AM   #25 (permalink) elaine 1970 Numismatist     Join Date: Jan 2007 Posts: 5,971 My Mood: with the gold moving upward these few days. the mint might as well declare product is not available for most of the spouses gold.   12-18-2008, 08:47 AM   #26 (permalink) jaceravone Member     Join Date: Jul 2007 Location: United States of America Posts: 3,667 My Mood: Still haven't received mine yet..... anybody else get theirs? __________________ “Punishment is the way in which society expresses its denunciation of wrongdoing and, in order to maintain respect for law, it is essential that the punishment inflicted for grave crimes should adequately reflect the revulsion felt by the great majority of citizens for them.” Lord Justice Denning of the Court of Appeals in the United Kingdom   12-18-2008, 08:52 AM   #27 (permalink) elaine 1970 Numismatist     Join Date: Jan 2007 Posts: 5,971 My Mood: no. still waiting. it's been two long weeks.   12-18-2008, 09:56 AM   #28 (permalink) elaine 1970 Numismatist     Join Date: Jan 2007 Posts: 5,971 My Mood: latest mintages: monroe's spouse(P) 7,512, (D) 4,306 adams's spouse (P) 5,130, (D) 2,900 jackson's spouse (P) 5,201, (D) 2,988 van buren's spouse (P) 3,748, (D) 2,074   12-18-2008, 10:08 AM   #29 (permalink) spock1k King of Hearts   Join Date: Dec 2006 Posts: 11,562 Quote: Originally Posted by jaceravone Still haven't received mine yet..... anybody else get theirs?

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. __________________ “Punishment is the way in which society expresses its denunciation of wrongdoing and, in order to maintain respect for law, it is essential that the punishment inflicted for grave crimes should adequately reflect the revulsion felt by the great majority of citizens for them.” Lord Justice Denning of the Court of Appeals in the United Kingdom   Page 2 of 29 < 1 2 3 4 5 6 12 > Last » Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Would you like to support CoinTalk?
