On Wednesday, April 27, the United States Mint increased their numismatic gold coin prices due to their pricing policy that uses the London Fix weekly average price of gold as a gauge for market value. The US Mint increased First Spouse proof coins from $904 to $929 and uncirculated coins from $891 to $916.
Abigail Fillmore’s proof took the lead when its sales total surged by 90 in this week’s report. Previously collectors picked up 30 of them. Fillmore’s uncirculated sold out weeks ago, and it is likely the Mint will halt sales of the proof version when it launches the Eliza Johnson First Spouse Coins on Thursday, May 5, 2011.
Demand for the two remaining coins, Mary Lincoln First Spouse Gold Coins, was still strong, but not as strong as the prior week. The uncirculated advanced by 85 after climbing 101 previously. The Lincoln proofs moved up by 53 compared to 58 in the last round. All together, Lincoln’s cumulative total reached 9,375 or 62.5% of its mintage limit.
One of the sold out Buchanan’s Liberty coins lost another sale. The sales total for the uncirculated version dropped back by 1, leaving the Liberty coin’s cumulative total at 12,657.
