Last week’s US Mint sales figures showed how collectors were focused on buying the newly released 2009 Anna Harrison Spouse Coins, to the detriment of the remaining 2008 gold options.
The latest numbers still reflect strong interest in the Anna Harrisons, but nowhere near the level of the first week’s surge, and sales of the remaining spouse coins picked up across the board. The proof versions went into three-digits for a change.
The 2008 Elizabeth Monroe First Spouse Coins will be pulled from next week’s report. The numbers have not changed for three weeks and are final. (The Mint pulled the coins from store shelves with the release of the Anna Harrison coins on March 5.) The Monroe spouse sales end with a total of 12,452 coins sold, which is the the lowest close in the series to date.
The following tables compare First Spouse Coin sales reported from March: Week 3 to Week 4.
