Inaugural Sales of Letitia Tyler First Spouse Gold Coins

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.
