Not surprising - the silver version is now gone dark. Even with the plethora of Apollo editions, what was the Mint thinking with only 500 available? Maybe the BEP could only print 1000 total?
For the price and quantity involved, I hazard a guess, a dealer or two+ bought them out and now there maybe a secondary market demand.
How long before we see these on the late night coin shows/adverts? For the “low” price of $299.99 or split payments of $150 x2.
I got on at 12:03 and got two of the silver coins with the print. got an order confirmation but no shipping yet. Is it really only 1000 total prints? I have the other ones so I wanted 2 of these to complete the set.
Enthusiasm has been underwhelming on this issue! Enuf Apollo already...

It's not about the dollar coin on these -- it's the intaglio print and any other issue-specific certificates. If they come in a sealed set, then keeping them intact would be recommended.

What's the reasoning behind keeping them sealed? These prints can only be purchased via the gold or the silver Apollo sets ...unless PCGS or other TPG are planning to issue a special pedigree for the coin from these particular sets.

Well, in case you didn't get enough of the Apollo 11 stuff, a couple more options!
Available August 7, no prices set, no product limit, no HHL's. They are the standard proof commems with a BEP Intaglio print. The print is the same in either option.
You would think, since these two products have real US Mint product codes, that they would have reported sales in the latest report, but you would be wrong.
I also find it interesting that the Mint set the price for these a full week after going on sale...
The Mint is finally reporting the Proof/Print numbers. For 8/25:
APOLLO 11 50TH ANNIVERSARY 2019 PROOF $5 GOLD COIN AND KENNEDY-APOLLO INTAGLIO PRINT 681
APOLLO 11 50TH ANNIVERSARY 2019 PROOF SILVER DOLLAR AND KENNEDY-APOLLO INTAGLIO PRINT 2570
I think "APOLLO 11 50TH ANNIVERSARY 2019 PROOF SILVER DOLLAR AND KENNEDY-APOLLO INTAGLIO PRINT" is the longest product description in the history of the Mint's sales reporting...
Thought it was too good to be true with only 500 sets -- anyone else get this Mint email on Aug 7?

YES unless I was spammed, but that's unlikely. Here is the rest of the screenshot:

Aside from the one set, nothing close to a sellout, and some reasonably low mintages in there.
I think the backorders on the puck killed the 5oz silver. I still think that should have been a no-brainer sell out, but it was the entire fault of Congress not consulting the Mint on how many 5oz pucks they could produce.
Other than that, the A11 was a popular subject and dominated the market pre-July, but the commem was a relative failure versus the 2014 BBHoF commem. I think it does show that curved coins aren't going to be a draw. Someone needs to point this out to congress.
I don't think this bodes well for the basketball commems next this year. (I could be wrong. I think the coins will be actively advertised by the HoF, so we'll see if it drums up additional interest.)
And I'll make the bold prediction that the Sufferage dollar will be one of the lowest mintage commems, considering the very late release date, the subject, and publicity the commem has received. (It's not even a TBA on the product schedule yet.) The only think I think it has going for it, is it's only going to be offered in silver.
Looking for 2 white sleeves with the barcode that came with the intaglio Print (i.e. Apollo 11 50th Anniversary 2019 Proof Silver Dollar and Kennedy-Apollo 11 Intaglio Print)

Does that make the coin more valuable than the others as it’s now one of 500 silver Apollo dollars? Better keep the boxes sealed.

I was able to pick up a few of the Silver versions this morning. Both Gold and Silver were available...
May have to add it to the morning list...

Kinda similar to the Rocketship labels?
Are they serialized?
Both silver and gold are currently available on backorder.
Thank you for reminding me just picked a few up though not sure when the date of fulfillment will be.
Says in stock date Sept. 06
I just got my two Apollo silver coins with the intaglio prints. The box is HUGE. Wondering if they sent too many.
WAG.
Two boxes in a bigger box.
The silver coins boxed.
The prints are boxed or thick cardboard flats.
And then put in a bigger box for shipping.
It’d be messed up if they were loose to rattle around.
Gold and silver on BO this AM.

I'm not sure when this happened, but I just noticed the Proof Half Dollar Sets are marked SOLD OUT
Well, it's about time. They've been hovering right at 99,998 sets (100K limit) sold for the past couple of months.
I guess we'll get the final figure later today. I wonder if they found two more sets...
Been unavailable for awhile. Guessing all the odds and ends at the mint stores finally got bought up.

If anyone is interested the "Giant Leap" print is available right now. There is more then 99 available.
Thanks for the heads up -- I just grabbed a couple.
That’s the 2nd of the 3-series.
1 and 3 are SO. Still makes a good standalone print.
They LIED!
Thought it was too good to be true with only 500 sets -- anyone else get this Mint email on Aug 7?
That’s 500 good sets that will not be returned due to missing, broken, ripped or defective parts.
They won't be lying if they don't deliver the print until 2020...
Is that email definitely from the Mint itself?

PF Ag $1 is on BO to 15 Nov.
The puck is available.
Apollo’s are no longer available. End of this commem.
I wish the Mint would update the mintages on them.....

oh man, should have waited. price for a graded coin is near the issue price.
