    This morning my cc got charged for the proof coin!!! I didn't know if I was going to get either coin, but then the Uncirculated coin only got charged, and I assumed that I wouldn't get it. A couple of days a week, I would go to the order tracking page and see Backordered, and hope upon hope that when the cancelled orders got processed, that I would still have my chance.

    WELL I DID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!! and here's the kicker... I was just off of work all summer with a back injury and we went all that time without a paycheck. I told my wife that I would figure out some way of selling one to pay for the pair, she said..."Mike, just keep them if they make you that happy!" What a woman, she's a keeper!!!

    I placed my order around 4 pm on Aug 30, today I saw the coins are in stock and reserved, but credit card haven't been charged yet. Looks I might get it too.

    Nice going Mike. While checking the mint site for the Unc.earlier, for which I was on the waiting list, I noticed that my status had been changed from backordered to in stock and reserved. Just checked my card online and the charge is pending.
    Looks like I may get 1 too.
