First Spouse Coin Sales Figures logoMost of the demand for First Spouse Gold Coins diminished during the latest round of the United States Mint sales figures. Six out of eight coins slowed, including the two sold out coins. Overall, 336 coins sold, compared to 368 previously.

The two with sold out statuses, the James Buchanan’s Liberty Proof Coin and the Jane Pierce Proof Coin, both tumbled by -9 each. Buchanan’s uncirculated, however, blazed forward by 199 and outperformed its prior increase of 84. Pierce uncirculated, however, crept up by 31 after rising 36 in the last round.

Combined, the Buchanan coins hit 82% of the maximum allowed, or 12,390 out of 15,000. The Jane Pierce coins were still at 54%. Their total moved to 8,148 out of 15,000.

The Abigail Fillmore coins sales were mixed. Her proof gained 63 compared to -15 previously and was the second best seller. Her uncirculated eased, adding only 9 instead of 103 like the previous round. It has been almost one year since her coins entered the market. Her total is 9,336, or 62% of the original maximum, but both of her coins are still available from the US Mint, for now.
