Message:: [QUOTE="yakpoo, post: 1183758, member: 18157"]Here's an update of 2010 Silver Proof set sales over the past seven (7) weeks... Date..........Total.......Inc/(Dec) Apr 5........560,280......974Apr 12......561,206.......926Apr 19......561,472.......266Apr 26......561,365......(107)May 3.......561,351.......(14)May 10......562,038......687May 17......562,982......944 It looks like sales have resumed the 1000/month level they had before the suspension. Even so, there are only 32 weeks left in 2011 and the Mint announced that sales of 2010 Silver proof sets will NOT continue beyond 2011. Senario #1: The price of silver continues a slow decline and weekly sales remain soft. Senario #2: The price of silver rises and sales are suspended pending a price increase...sales remain soft. Senario #3: Too few sets were made before the end of 2010 and there's an early sellout. In the scenarios above, final sales numbers for 2010 Silver Proof sets could be less than 600,000!  That would make the 2010 Kennedy Silver half dollar and the 2010 Roosevelt Silver dime KEY dates!!! No one (especially me!) can predict the future...but "chances are" that if you are a Kennedy and/or Roosevelt silver collector, you may want to take notice...just say'n. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]
