  • To me, it seems as though the Mint raising the maximum order to 10 coins is a good sign for collectors. Maybe the Mint has struck all these coins to be sold and they are now having trouble getting rid of them.

    Possibly they have raised the coin order maximum so that they wont have to melt coins at the end of the year?

    At the price of these things, I can't see every coin collector out there being able to afford to just go out and buy them....especially in this economy.

    I'll bet that the mintage will be lower than many suspect.

    I believe the mintage has broken 70,000. UHRs may appreciate in the years to come but at this time the big premium lies in the First Strike/Early Releases MS70 and of course the PL UHRs.

    I dont think UHRs will reach a mintage of 100,000 but we may end up seeing a mintage in the 85,000-90K range

    from the front page of the online catalog:



    << <i>Effective August 31, 2009 at 12:00 noon (ET): The United States Mint will adjust the household order limit on the 2009 Ultra High Relief Double Eagle Gold Coin from a limit of ten (10) coins per household to twenty-five (25) coins per household. The household order limit will be re-evaluated on a regular basis and the United States Mint will either extend, adjust or remove the limit as needed. >>

    Don't forget the SMS (Special Mint Selected) coins. I want a 1st Strike Early Release PL SMS slabbed coin. It must be worth a zillion $$$$$ more than a plain old 1st Strike, or Early Release, or PL or . . . Please, someone start slabbing coins designated as SMS.
