First Spouse Coin Sales, Gold Coins Cheaper

First Spouse Coin Sales Figures logoUS Mint First Spouse Gold Coin sales retreated ever so slightly compared to the last reading reported on September 23. Gold coin prices went up Wednesday, the 23rd, which might have effected sales, especially since the spot price of gold started to decline the next day.

Letitia Tyler Proof coins were the top weekly sellers in the series for the first time since Sarah Polk coins launched, increasing by 165. Second place sales went to Julia Tyler Proofs, and third was proof Sarah Polk, climbing 161 and 159, respectively.

Today, the US Mint lowered gold coin prices since gold had averaged below $1,000 an ounce during the prior seven days. Prices are subject to change according to the Mint’s pricing policy that is based on the London Fix weekly average price of gold. (Ironically, gold headed back above the $1,000 barrier again Wednesday, and First Spouse coin prices could again increase should the trend continue through to next Wednesday.) The Proof First Spouse Coins are back down to $654 and the Uncirculated are at $641. (See coin price grid.)
