<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CentDime, post: 443973, member: 7297&quot;]People are speculating that the 2008 platinum unc coins will come in with a lower mintage than the 2006 coins so I looked back at the numbers for 2006 and this is what I had:</p><p><br /></p><p>4 coin sets 2000</p><p>1/10 2006 w 1700</p><p><br /></p><p>Now the last sales numbers on this for 2008 are these:</p><p><br /></p><p>4 coin sets 453</p><p>1/10 2008 w 712</p><p><br /></p><p>Since the 1/10 just sold out, I have read that hundreds of coins were purchased over the weekend. The difference between 2008 and 2006 is only about 1000 coins, and I think I read a small group of friends purchased 500 coins alone????</p><p><br /></p><p>Just from these numbers I am not expecting 2008 to be a much lower mintage when 2006 was already extremely low. It looks to me like it will be close for these coins to 2006 but it also depends on how many sets they made for sale. If they only made 1000 sets then it could be much lower, only time will tell. But for the singles it seems they made about as many as in 2006 perhaps.</p><p><br /></p><p>On Thursday or so the mint will give us the latest sales numbers and perhaps that will say what the real total could be. If it is higher than 2006 there may be many returns back to mint. :desk:[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
