US Mint Products Mintage Values?

I'm looking for production values of the items that the mint sells on their website. Not actual mintage of each coin, but like how many proof sets, mint sets, nickel sets, state quarter rolls, etc. are going to be sold on their website. Any ideas or place I can get this info?

Thanks!

  • They have a maximum mintage set for each coin or series. Lets say 50,000. They don't save 30,000 for web orders and 20,000 for phone. Its however many are sold in any venue be it web, phone or mail up to the maximum mintage. You won't find info like that because they don't know until it happens how many were sold on their website.

    All of the Mint's inventory can be sold via phone, web or mail in. Of course on sell outs the mail in option will have less fulfillment. As stated before, the inventory is open to any sales channel. This is typical of all catalog sales venues.

    What they said.....the Mint has an amount and it sells that amount every which way (web, phone, mail, and in kiosks).

    Curious...why would you want just the web amount, if there were one, anyway? Planning a large purchase to corner the market?

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

  • I just want to know production values for these items in general, so that some speculation could be done and I could purchases the scarcer items. For instance, if I knew that Buffalo rolls were going to be kept short, I'd stock up on those. No real big volumes, just to potentially hit more valuable items.
