In record year 2011, bullion Silver Eagles did not reach where they are now until October 8, 2011.
Moving to numismatic products, weekly sales continued higher for annual sets and commemorative coins. Some of that strength has come from the Mint’s Fall Catalog which was recently mailed to customers and prominently features the products.
Across the 5-Stars Generals and Girl Scouts Commemorative Coins, unit sales advanced 2,235 compared to the 2,195 previously. And core annual sets in clad and silver gained 39,945 against the prior 28,952. Sales totals for the commemoratives and annual sets in the week before the catalog hit the street combined to 1,224 and 20,265.
Sets and Silver Eagles dominated the weekly listing of top-ten sellers.
