This article from CoinNews.net reflects what I have been observing and commenting on above in response to each of Elaine's sales updates --that of declining sales of the fractional AGEs: Gold Eagle July 2010 Sales: 1 oz Eagles Rise, Fractional Sizes Plunge I personally felt this would be the case this year after the rush to physical bullion in 2009. I speculated in a bullion thread near the beginning of 2010 that silver (particularly the sustained demand for ASEs) would outperform in 2010 to that of gold. Regarding 2010 sales of 1 oz. gold, this is likely the more serious paced investor putting money away, while fractional tend to appeal to lower budgets. However, those budgets have taken their positions in gold last year and may be heavier in silver this year. Silver has a lot of potential and upside IMO and it seems others may agree with demand showing this strong, plus it's accessible to a greater majority coming into physical or playing catch up. If I can find the link to my old post I will add it. These may not be the lowest mintages for fractional AGEs but they are looking pretty slim.

What are the final 2009 Silver quarter proof set mintage figures? If not final when should the Mint stop selling these sets and make them final? Thank you
I believe that the Silver Quarter Proof set are included with the Silver Proof set. Therefore should the TOTAL Silver Quarter Proofs actually produced would be 694,406(SPS) +282,445(SQPS) =976,851 corrected total?? If I'm reading the numbers correctly the Silver Quarters proof aren't really that rare, are they? 2009 clad proof set - 1,477,967 2009 silver proof set - 694,406 2009 unc mint set - 774,844 2010 prez proof set - 395,959 2009 clad quarter proof set - 611,629 2009 silver quarter proof set - 282,445

The last low Unc mint set was 1963 with 606,612 set looking at this year with only 283,047 made so far I don't think the 2010 will break 600,000 sets .

Elaine, Is there minatge figures available on the 50 states quarter first day covers and 2000 Sacagawea $1? Thank you in advance for you assistance. Dave
Elaine 1970, I know some where in the last 130 pages you have mentioned the mintage numbers for the 1996 AGE's. Can you list them again for the fractional eagles, how do they compare with other years?
