30,000 set. maximum. tyler and harrison both got 30,000 set.

 

Thanks Elaine. You're the best!

 

you are welcome philham.

 

year 2009 one ounce bullion - 26,000,000 for American Silver Eagle and 1,200,000 for American Gold Eagle. is that possible?. try to guess yours.

 

What happened to Sarah Polk?

 

oh gosh, the last one is for sarah polk. not margaret taylor. thanks.

 

np...always looking for opportunities to contribute.

 

2009 AGE one ounce unc gold coin - 901,000 wow. near 1,000,000.

 

I quoted you on another thread as saying..."The Mint waits for the closing price of gold to be in the next higher bracket for three (3) days in a row before raising prices."

Did I get that right? That's what I understood you to say the other day.

 

no. that's not what i am saying. now we need an average london gold price of $1,005.25 per ounce for the next two days. tuesday and wednesday. if that happen. the mint gonna raise the mint gold products (up) by one bracket. or else the next seven days or so. the UHR and spouses gold price will stay the same.

current price of UHR double eagle is $1,339.00 each. one bracket up will be $1,389.00. my observation is that the price will stay the same. because the gold seem very hard to pass the $1,005.25 average london gold price on tueday and wednesday.

 

Thanks for the clarification! I'll delete the quote right away...and make sure I check with you first before making an attribution. My appologies.


Some points I'm not clear on...

1. Does the average "London" gold price need to "increase" three days in a row? ...while in the next bracket?

...or

2. Does the average "London" gold price just need to close "in" the next bracket for three days in a row?

The next bracket starts at $1000...which is why I ask. I assume you're taking the average London price from Friday ($1005.25) and saying that we need to finish above that price for another two (2) days to move to the next bracket...is that correct?

3. Why does the US Mint use the price of gold in London? (just curious)

4. Does the US Mint raise prices right away or do they wait "seven days or so"?

5. Is there any "minumum" time they wait after a price hike before hiking again?


I'm just trying to make 100% sure I understand what you're saying. I'm spending $$ att and want to get it right. I really appreciate your help. :bow:

 

Elaine, I call the US Mint Customer Service number a spoke with a woman named "Candice". I post what I learned on a new bullion thread called "Gold Chart Skinny".

Candice says that the Philadelpia Mint sets the UHR and FS coin prices each Wednesday morning at 8:00 AM. Whatever the spot price for gold is at that time determines the Mint Price Chart bracket for the following week. She says it's possible for the price to change every Wednesday morning...but not likely.

 

to Yakpoo: read this. http://catalog.usmint.gov/wcsstore/ConsumerDirect/images/catalog/en_US/GoldCoinGrid.pdf

 

london gold closing table:

thursday: a.m. $988.50, p.m. $990.75
friday: a.m. $998.25, p.m. $1,008.25
monday: a.m. $994.25, p.m. $999.25
tuesday: a.m. $997.50, p.m. $996.00
wednesday: a.m. ? ? ? ? ?

from wednesday to next wednesday, the price of UHR double eagle and spouses gold will be the same. no increases. unless tomorrow morning london gold close above $1,028.00. then the mint will increase the price based on the gold price chart. which is impossible i think.

 

I wasn't quite sure what you were getting at...I had viewed the price chart before. I now see the part part that reads...

Is that the part you're refering to?

That's an important piece of the puzzle. When I called the Mint's Customer Service Center, the woman there just said the price was updated weekly, on Wednesday at 8:00 AM. That seems to match what I "think" you're pointing out on the price chart.

I'm sure you know all this...but for the benefit of others that may be interested...

Here's a link that discusses this pricing policy in more detail...

Here's a link that may be helpful to those of us that try to predict future bullion price moves.

...and a link to the London Fix AM chart. You may have to select the chart from the menu on the left...under "Free Charts".

yes. that is the one. very good. the customer service at the mint is not trained well. it is non-sense to tell you that it is based on wednesday a.m. gold price alone and then decide the price.

 

Thanks a lot! :high5: I'm learning as I'm going and wanted to share my findings...guess I got a bit ahead of myself on this one.

I corrected the Bullion thread called "Gold Chart Skinny". Do you know of a link where they publish the daily London A.M. Fix prices? I've been looking, but haven't found one, yet.

 

This is a nice resource for daily and historic prices: USA Gold Reference Library

 

Thanks Krispy! I also found the A.M. Fix at...

Thrusday, 10Sep09: $988.50
Friday, 11Sep09: $998.25
Monday, 14Sep09: $994.25
Tuesday, 15Sep09: $997.50

Total: $3978.50

$5000 - $3978.50 = $1021.50

Gold's way up tonight...but I don't see it hitting $1021.50 by 8:00 AM. I think the bullion buyers are safe for another week.
