Sales Mixed for First Spouse Coins

First Spouse Coin sales were again mixed last week but trended a touch higher, according to new US Mint data.

Four of eight coins climbed, two were unchanged and two slid, when comparing the week prior and week-over-week percent increases for the gold coin series. None moved in either direction by any significant factor.

The biggest gainer in the group was the proof Anna Harrison First Spouse coin, rising by 94. The uncirculated version advanced just 16.

Sales of Louisa Adams coins end Thursday, and that fact did not help either the proof or uncirculated version last week. They appear to be closing out as the scarcest in the series to date.

In looking back to the month of June, unlike the gold and silver eagle coin surge, the First Lady series was mostly lackluster for the month.
