<p>[QUOTE=&quot;2schnauzers2luv, post: 1387715, member: 26161&quot;]So, with the last mint sales report, we learned that 1,174 sets were sold of the 2011 Silver Proof set for the week.&nbsp; Since the end of January, the sales have been averaging 1,022 sets per week.&nbsp; Right now the 2011 Silver Proof Set is 33,814 sets behind the 2010 total.&nbsp; If the current average of 1,022 sets sold per week maintains, it will take just over 33 weeks for the 2011 to catch up with the 2010 total.&nbsp; This mirrors Yakpoo&#039;s earlier calculation of Labor Day in September.&nbsp; And again, still no word of when the 2012 set will be made available or when the 2011 set will end.&nbsp; It would be interesting to know what the mints plan is, if there actually is one.&nbsp; </p><p>So lets see, umm, we&#039;ve had the 5.oz ATB&#039;s, next was the 25th Silver Eagle Anniversary Set.&nbsp; So maybe now the mint is again looking for &quot;The Next Big Thing&quot;.&nbsp; So whatta ya think?&nbsp; All 2012 Silver Proof Sets made of .999 silver, because the decision was made to eliminate 90% coinage and are no longer being made?&nbsp; The sets are already late being made available to the public, probably takes awhile to round up all those planchets and time to get things set up.&nbsp; That may take alot of time.&nbsp; Which provides more time to unload the remaining 2011&#039;s.&nbsp; So were talkin&#039; low mintage. Limited edition.&nbsp; Maybe household sales limits?&nbsp; First year of issue.&nbsp; Extraordinary, elaborate packaging complete with numbered COA.&nbsp; And all the fanfare and hype that comes with it.&nbsp; Could be.&nbsp; <font size="3"><span style="color: #ff0000">Who Knows?</span><font size="2">&nbsp; Of course, this is all just conjecture on my part, but stranger things have happened.&nbsp; I just wonder though if this &quot;Next Big Thing&quot; is what the mint has planned for us the customer.</font></font></p><p><font size="3"><font size="2"><br /></font></font></p><p><font size="3"><font size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [ATTACH]165358.vB[/ATTACH]</font></font></p><p><font size="3"><font size="2"><br /></font></font></p><p><font size="3"><font size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; </font></font></p><p><font size="3"><font size="2"></font></font>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
