According to another link on that blog - under 2 million per mint mark. Unfortunately, that's still about 1.8 million more than there are SAC collectors.

Don't get me wrong. I have 2 complete collections of SACs. The problem is that there are too many guys and dolls buying rolls and rolls of the things. It seems no one "collects" anymore. Everything is about the $$ down the road.

The phrase, "yeah, I gotta get a couple of those to put away" means a couple boxes, rolls or bags - not individual coins.

Oh darned. Time to go to my Anger Management Class.

A few days after the sell out the P rolls were somehow showing as available again and I snuck in an order for three rolls. They were back in "sold out" status the next day.

You probably made $100 on that. We'll see in 5 or 6 months.
