[QUOTE="yakpoo, post: 1121586, member: 18157"]Spock...I saw a good comment on MintNewsBlog recently...they pointed out that the Mint is only obligated, by law, to strike at least one (1) coin and no more than the preannounced limit. There's nothing in the law that requires them to mint any specific amount. Beginning with the Jane Pierce coins, it's apparent that the Mint has adopted a new policy of estimating the number of coins they expect to sell and minting to that number. If the number is off...oh well!! Given the likely low interest in the coins that are in the queue (of the lesser known First Spouses...and Alice Paul), I wouldn't be surprised to see an Unc mintage less than 1,000...and THAT would be truly amazing! That "possible" low mintage may be a result of the Mint's low estimate rather than a true reflection of interest in the coin. These are interesting times...I plan to mortgage the house (if need be) to keep going! I'm pulling the "Full Monty" on this series!!! (What?! No emoticon for that?) :scratch:[/QUOTE]
