<p>[QUOTE=&quot;yakpoo, post: 686129, member: 18157&quot;]Yeah...I&#039;m getting a bit tapped out, myself. With my Sarah&#039;s on the way, I got a year before <b>HAVE TO</b> buy again...but I really want another set of Anna&#039;s (I think she will be the new &quot;key&quot;). I project her final Unc numbers to be in the 3600-3800 range...pretty low for a US Mint Gold coin.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I&#039;m putting together a spreadsheet of all the FS coins weekly sales numbers and overlaying them by 1) empirical date, and 2) week from first issue (Week #1 to Week #52). I hope to quantify the effects of price increases and seasonal variations to project final sales numbers (I got WAY too much time on my hands <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />).</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>One observation I made so far...maybe I should have seen this already...is that every ten (10) weeks, the Mint posts their &quot;returns&quot; in the weekly sales numbers. The numbers for that week are almost always negative.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Some of those returns are from folks like you and me...receivers of damaged goods. The rest <b>MAY</b> be from folks that order in volume, cherrypick the best coins, and return the rest. Who knows...pretty good conspiracy theory, anyway.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
