It seems amazing that Sarah Polk Uncs have outsold the Julia Tyler Uncs...and the Julia Tyler coins have been on sale longer.

Elaine...do you think the Tyler coins will end at the same time or different times?

 

Elaine, what do you think the final sales for these two items will be?

2009 silver proof set - On sale: 17 July 2009
2009 unc mint set - On sale: 01 October 2009

My guess a while back was...
...Uncs: 1,000,000
...Proofs: 800,000

 

silver proof set - my guess is 703,500
unc mint set - my guess is 790,500

 

as for tylers. i think it might end at the same time.

 

Interesting! Do you think they will stay on sale for a full 52 weeks or end early? Those are both pretty low mintages...I hope you're right!

If both the Tyler coins end at the same time, that may take some folks by surprise...which would also be good for some of us.

 

Next drop in gold or before july 4th I'll order a Tyler.

 

You mean the next time the US Mint has to reduce the price of the coins based on the falling price of gold? You might be waiting a while. Gold is pretty high this week. If it holds and continues to rise it may go up then you will be waiting for gold to fall so you can buy at the current prices. Then there are the issues of people buying these coins and returning them if they are below 69/70 grades, so waiting might get you no savings and a previously collector rejected coin. Just something to think about regarding these and this idea of when you'll buy. If I was going to buy these coins I wouldn't wait.

 

i have a question about mintage numbers...

when the mint releases it's final mintage numbers, is that the number released to the banks, or does it include the ones that were destroyed because of faults and mistakes?

example - 176,212,000 quarters were minted in 1969 in philadelphia... is that how many were released to the banks?

 

2010 arkansas quarter - 23,400,000 (P), 19,000,000 (D)
2010 hiawatha belt dollar - 24,247,000 (P), 23,764,000 (D)
2010 millard fillmore dollar - 37,500,000 (P), 36,960,000 (D)
2010 franklin pierce dollar - 18,340,000 (P), 21,420,000 (D)
2010 roosevelt dime - 19,000,000 (P)
2010 lincoln cent - 278,030,000 (P), 294,000,000 (D)
2010 jefferson nickel - zero
2010 kennedy half dollar - 1,800,000 (P), 1,700,000 (D)

mintage keep going down.......amazing. netherlands is experiment no paper money and coins. maybe in the near future. u.s.a. too.

 

there will come a day

 

That's a very good question...and one I've spent the past little while trying to understand myself. In my case, it was with the First Spouse mintages.

As near as I can tell, it all comes down to the meaning of the word "issue". The Mint can make as many coins as they want, but they're not officially considered a coin until they're "issued".

In the quarter example you give, 176,212,000 quarters were "issued". The majority of these coins were "issued" to Federal Reserve banks.

Commercial banks would place orders with their associated Federal Reserve bank which, in turn, would fill these orders from "stock on hand". That may be from coins minted that year or from coins left over from a previous year.

A much smaller number of coins would be "issued" from the Mint directly to the public in the form of US Mint sets. The final mintage is a total of all coins "issued".

If at some later date, previously issued coins are destroyed by the Federal Reserve Banks (damaged, worn, obsolete, etc), those numbers might be recorded, but are rarely deducted from the number of coins "issued"...as reported by Numismatic publications.

An exception to that rule can sometimes be found with early Commemorative coins. For instance, (according to Breen) the authorizing act of February 23, 1916 allowed for up to 100,000 of McKinley gold dollars to be issued.

There were 20,000 (+26 assay) minted in Aug and Oct 1916 and another 10,000 (+14 assay) issued in Feb 1917. Of those coins, 10,023 were melted (all 1916 dated coins). I have no idea where the Red Book gets its mintage numbers of 1916: 15,000 and 1917: 5,000.

Some of you may have followed my exploits in trying to figure out how the US Mint is administering the First Spouse Gold coin program. A very obtuse reference in Title 31, 5112(o) suggests that the First Spouse coins are "issued by the Secretary" (I assume that means the Secretary of the Treasury).

If that's the case, the Mint would be precluded from issuing these coins through secondary channels (such as the Bullion Dealer Network) and can only sell them directly to the Public as prescribed under Title 31. In this case, the Mint's "final sales numbers" would exactly equal the "final mintage of each design".
