The Mint official announcement states :

[FONT=times new roman,times]To ensure that all members of the public have fair and equal access to United States Mint products, any order placed prior to the official on-sale date and time of August 30, 12:00 noon (ET) shall not be deemed accepted by the United States Mint and will not be honored. For more information, please review the United States Mint's Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs), Answer ID #175.[/FONT]

How would it even be possible to place an order early?

Last time around, the web options were unavailable until after 12:00 noon.
I presume the telephone sales people could be instructed to wait until 12:00 noon to start selling.

 

third spouse future may not be good too

with stock market crushed. gold and silver downed. financial and banking sector problems. washington and adams spouses prices falls. i see 3rd spouse gold may not be bright as expected. also u.s. mint limitation to one piece each. the dealers and institutionals may not support spouses price. because they don't have it. that's means the spouses series is dead. i remembered 1992 white house commems sold out before. the dealers did not have it. instead they pushed the 1991 u.s.o. commems price.

on aug. 14, spouse gold hit a low of $466.98.

 

Not true. I know several collectors on the west coast that ordered as early as 8:45am and received their full allotment of first spouse coins.

 

I'm covering all First Spouse threads with this.
Just got off the phone with the Mint Pressroom
I wanted to complain about only allowing one coin per household. This will allow the dealers to use there employees and there home address plus there biz address. I told the mint pressroom that many households have more then one coin collector in them. (Father&Son) It is a big advantage for dealers and big biz. The United States Mint will reevaluate this limit after the first week, and either extend, adjust, or remove it. What a joke they will be sold out and they know it.

Everyone should call about this.

You're complaining about a one coin per household limit? The 'big advantage' that the dealers have in this is magnified if the limit is higher!! They still use their employees, home address and biz address when the limit is higher. How do you think the first two sold out so quickly and some ebay sellers had 40 sets to sell??? At least with a single coin limit, more private collectors have a chance to buy directly from the mint instead of feeding these opportunists.

 

we shall see if any are left for sale at the end of the week.
The dealers will just make out better with this deal
