I'll update the high and low numbers in the first post, so you do not have to wade through it all. If you can't beat the high or low, don't post.

Here's waht I got so far:

LOW # 38324XXX

HIFH# 38400XXX

Difference 76,000

    I ordered mine directly on the Mint's phone order line about 20 min. ago. Their web site said "backordered" so I asked the clerk about my order. She said they ARE still in stock (this was about 1:30 PM Pac. Time) and I will get them in 1-2 weeks. image

    Every order is backordered (from order #1)
    They are sold out according to the website. So you probably got one of the last orders in image

    The poor phone workers are usually the last to know but I'm pulling for you. I believe sellout happened after 38365xxx but that is just my opinion.

    I might be out of luck, the order status on the mint web site states: Order Status: Your order request has been suspended.

    I'm not sure if that means I was after the wait list message or ???

    suspension normally is a result of violating ordering protocol. Maybe two orders placed by accident? Lot of accidents with that crazy website.

    Finally got my second order in at about 5:15-5:30....but battled like hell to get that one in...

    order #3838XXX

    I also noticed on the order I placed at 2ish this afternoon showed "Backordered 11/10/11"....my last order shows "Backordered 11/11/11" Should I worry about the second order I placed? Got email confirms on both, and no notice about a waiting list, but wonder if the 11/11/11 order is going to get punted...opinions?

    Listen guys, Order Status Suspended is part of the normal ordering process. It doesn't mean you're getting kicked outta school or that there is necessarily a problem.


    From the US mint's "former" FAQ section:


    The different order statuses are Your Order is in Process, Your Order Request is Completed, There is a Problem Processing Your Order ,Your Order was Cancelled and Your Order is Suspended. For more detailed information regarding these shipping statuses, please refer to the questions and answers related to each status by clicking on the links.

    Elsewhere, they state
    "Orders can be in a temporary status of; suspended (S), error (E) or held (H) during the normal order processing period. If your order is still in one of these statuses after 7 business days, please contact customer service at 1-800-USA-MINT (6468)."


    It was very common in the old days to have an order occassionally pop up here and there with this status. Every time people would freak out and others would suggest the worst. If your status shows suspended and you're worried about that, make a phone call for piece of mind...

    OK, here is what I think image

    I think a great many of the people with "Waiting List" orders will get them filled. image

    I think the Mint got tired of the Web Site backup and the phones being jammed and put up the "SOLD OUT SIGN" to ease up the pressure.

    Everybody wanted to go home. It was 5:00 PM. The sold -out sign went up right at 5:00 PM as my son was ordering at that time and that is when it showed up. The Mint can't afford the overtime image

    Back on the 20th Anniversary Set I had an order on the wait list and I got it.

    Keep your fingers crossed if you are on the list image
