Prices keep changing for First Spouse Gold Coins. They went down on Wednesday, September 14 by $25, which means the proofs are $1,079.00 and the uncirculated are $1,066.00.
Before the price drop, however, 681 of the 24-karat one half ounce gold coins sold between Wednesday, September 7 and Monday, September 12, while the prices were at their all-time high. (Suspensions prevented sales earlier in the week.)
As usual the newest release led sales. The Lucy Hayes proof and uncirculated climbed by 424 and 212, respectively. The performance of the Julia Grant coins, on the other hand, was mixed. The Grant proof went up by 27 to take the third top spot for the week, but the uncirculated fell by -8 and came in last place.
The most popular Presidential $1 Coin & First Spouse Medal Set was the Grant set, with 84. The Johnson set followed with 46, and the Lincoln set was third, with 32.
The next Presidential $1 Coin & First Spouse Medal Set will honor Rutherford B. Hayes and Lucy Hayes. The US Mint intends to release the set next Thursday, September 22, 2011 at noon Eastern Time.

Thank you what a great way to end the week, the best coin web site by far
Yes, thanks for the excellent website. I can’t find this info anywhere else on the web and refer to it all the time. Thanks again for the great job maintaining it!
Hey, do you suppose with the tiny mintages that this series will someday have considerable numismatic value (on top of melt, that is)?
