<p>[QUOTE=&quot;PeacePeople, post: 1378207, member: 20082&quot;]Figures don&#039;t lie, but liars can figure. It&#039;s amazing to me that the mint didn&#039;t produce squat of the ASE for the last couple weeks of 2011, and then came out with about 3million in the first week of 2012. I wonder if they didn&#039;t want to break the 40million mark for 2011? Something is very odd about the November figures, I wonder what they were minting at that time and trying to fulfill?</p><p><br /></p><p>The following is from Ed Steer of Casey Research back on Jan 4, 2012.</p><p><br /></p><p><i>Well, the big surprise came from the U.S. Mint. But, in actuality, it came as no surprise at all to either Ted Butler or myself. The mint had a monster sales report for the first business day in January...and both Ted and I feel that these are sales that were done in December, but not reported until the new year. They pulled this stunt in December 2010/January 2011 as well. I guess they didn&#039;t want to show silver eagles sales over the 40 million ounce mark for 2011.</i></p><p><i><br /></i></p><p><i>Anyway, here are the sales figures. The mint sold 37,500 ounces of gold eagles...2,000 one-ounce 24K gold buffaloes and...wait for it...3,197,000 silver eagles.</i></p><p><i><br /></i></p><p><i></i>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
