US Mint First Spouse Gold Coin sales were mostly on par with typical summer figures of late — there was no coin to really brag about… Again leaders from a pure numbers stand point were Letitia Tyler First Spouse Coins issued July 2. Proof and uncirculated options increased by 376 and 173, respectively.
The figures show demand retreated for six of eight First Lady coins when compared to the prior week. Performing marginally better were Anna Harrison and Jackson’s Liberty proofs. The former increased by 58 from 46 and the latter improved by 60 from 39.
It is official… Louisa Adams First Spouse Gold Coins have been off sale since July 2. Their numbers have remained unchanged for more than two weeks. 7,454 proof and 4,223 uncirculated were sold. These coins are the scarcest of the no longer US Mint sold First Spouse Coins.

There are no exceptionally flashy numbers to report in the latest round of US Mint First Spouse Gold Coin sales figures.
With the exception of the two newest issues, no First Lady commemorative managed to surpass 46 in news sales last week.
The US Mint launched the Letitia Tyler First Spouse Gold Coins on July 2. As of Sunday, July 12, a total of 3,605 were sold. As is typical with this series and most others, the proof coin is leading. 2,369 were purchased by collectors compared to 1,236 of the uncirculated option.

Letitia Tyler First Spouse Gold Coins have registered on the US Mint sales board. From their launch on Thursday, July 2, to Sunday, July 5, collectors purchased 1,853 proof and 1,020 uncirculated coins.
The figures are more than respectable given the recent sales history of the series and considering they were released immediately prior to the 4th of July holiday weekend.
Numbers for the remaining options were mostly lower last week, with a notable exception of the no longer sold Louisa Adams coin. While the uncirculated option remained unchanged, the proof climbed by 504 and stopped at 7,454. Next week should be telling in terms of whether the numbers are absolutely final.

First Spouse Coin sales were again mixed last week but trended a touch higher, according to new US Mint data.
Four of eight coins climbed, two were unchanged and two slid, when comparing the week prior and week-over-week percent increases for the gold coin series. None moved in either direction by any significant factor.
The biggest gainer in the group was the proof Anna Harrison First Spouse coin, rising by 94. The uncirculated version advanced just 16.
Sales of Louisa Adams coins end Thursday, and that fact did not help either the proof or uncirculated version last week. They appear to be closing out as the scarcest in the series to date.
In looking back to the month of June, unlike the gold and silver eagle coin surge, the First Lady series was mostly lackluster for the month.

First Spouse Coin Sales were mixed last week, but mostly leaned lower following the prior week where every coin had declined in performance.
In comparing US Mint figures from the week prior and week-over-week percent increases, two of eight coins inched higher, two were unchanged and four slipped. Anna Harrison gold coins lead with 1.1 percent increases. The proof version also garnered the top spot for most coins sold at an unremarkable 50.
In related news, the US Mint updated its’ coin schedule for the second time in June. The release date for Letitia Tyler First Spouse Gold Coins has shifted again, but this time just one day ahead to June 2.
When the new coins launch, the US Mint will no longer offer Louisa Adams First Spouse Gold Coins. That could potentially help their sales — although they were the recipient of at least one bump in numbers several weeks back (presumably the result of collectors preparing for their departure on June 4 when the Letitia Tyler coin was first scheduled for release).

Sales of US Mint First Spouse Gold coins stalled across the entire series last week. In looking at the latest number, the only happy campers are likely to be collectors who like the mintage figures to stay put and scarce.
In terms of new sales, Anna Harrison gold coins lead again with 55 of the uncirculated and 66 of the proof coins purchased.
The remaining six gold coins have new sale numbers ranging between 10 and 50, with most leaning toward the middle.
Coin prices were lowered on Wednesday, which should help the figures next week.

Van Buren’s Liberty First Spouse gold proof coin topped the 6,000 marker, although sales of the gold coin actually declined from the prior week.
Worse, five of the eight US Mint sold First Spouse Coins experienced reduced sales — a turnaround from our last report where seven showed improved week-over-week gains.
The semi reversal is not without explanation. Gold prices were on the rise and forced a $25 price increase on June 3 for each coin — a non helpful event for the series.
Standing out from the crowd were the Anna Harrison gold coins. The uncirculated coin jumped 5.1 percent higher (110 more sold) from the prior figures while the proof increased 4.2 percent (185 additional sold). The other gainer was Jackson’s Liberty uncirculated coin — ironically, the coin in last week’s report with the weakest numbers.

Sales picked up for all but one of the available eight US Mint First Spouse Gold Coins. Given that the numbers were less than impressive the last go-around, the task of overtaking them was hardly a magnificent feat. But several of the coins had solid figures that would standout on any week.
Leading the charge with the most sold were Louisa Adams gold coins. 424 of the proof and uncirculated options were recently purchased. Helping was the fact that collectors were expecting the coins to go off sale Thursday when Letitia Tyler spouse gold coins were set to launch.
However, the Mint had different plans as they updated their coin product schedule, moving the release of the Letitia Tyler spouse gold coins from June 4 to July 1. With that, the thinking is that the Louisa Adams coins will be available for several more weeks. (For more, read Letitia Tyler First Spouse Coin Delayed, Gold Coin Prices Rise.)
The only coin to receive less attention than the others was the uncirculated Jackson’s Liberty. Sales climbed by just 0.8 percent compared to the prior 1.4 percent increase.
Gold prices have been on the rise recently, jumping 10 percent in May and increasing the intrinsic value of the First Spouse Coins. That had to make the coins more attractive for some collectors from a price perspective. However, the US Mint raised prices today by $25 for each coin. That may have an impact on next week’s numbers.

First Spouse Gold Coin sales were mostly lower over the last several days, according to the latest United States Mint sales data.
While last week’s report showed sales increased for six of eight First Lady coins, a reversal occurred in recent days with demand declining for seven of eight coins.
The only gainer over the prior report was the proof Anna Harrison First Spouse Gold Coin — sales climbed by 120, or 2.9 percent compared to the prior 73, or 1.8 percent increase.
Both Louisa Adams coins will no longer be available from the US Mint after the release of Letitia Tyler First Spouse Coin on Thursday, June 4. As such, there may be the potential for their sales to pickup during their final week of availability.

The pace of First Spouse Gold Coin sales increased for six of the eight options sold by the United States Mint, new sales stats reveal.
Anna Harrison and Louisa Adams proof coins were the only gold pieces to experience a reduction in demand compared to the prior week. On the flip side and for the second straight week, the uncirculated Adams was the winner with the most sold.
As a reminder, both Adams coins will no longer be available from the Mint once the Letitia Tyler First Spouse Coin goes on sale June 4.
