    just one so far, but I'm hoping that the Mint will lift the ordering limit before 2010

    My option is not there. I got zero. I may buy one later. As faras NCLT goes, it is not stupid in this particular case IMO. It's a nice production. Not a coin by any stretch of the imagination, despite the LT of NCLT, but still an appropriate "collector" product form the US Mint. I'll probably get one, two or three eventually. I feel they are overpriced. Guess I could buy one and get another if gold drops, cost dollar averaging the purchases.

    At this point - none. There is no need to rush as I don't believe in First Strikes and mintage is unlimited.
    I would like to own one someday, but not at the current price.

    You fell into that one.

    When the missus gets started you better believe that the work address qualifies as a separate household until the storm blows over.

    Just one because I like it. Good chance it will be worth only melt in a few years so I decided against loading up on them.

    I ordered one at noon...I mean 12:45 yesterday, during the sluggish-fest. Late last night, around midnight I ordered a second one (different address & credit card) which only took a few minutes. Same ship date (2/06) and everything!

    But with gold jumping up today, if it keeps on going up, $1200 is gonna look cheap for these...

    I tried yesterday from 12:00-1:00 but could not get through online then decided to wait.

    Today (Friday) I noticed that gold had jumped more than $40 to $900 so I decided to buy (order number 30870XXX) According to my receipt--backordered until Feb 6

    Hmmmm....there should be several of the 'None' options IMO...

    1) None - It's a silly program since there are no published mintage limits
    2) None - No spare cash for things like this
    3) None - My wife would really like a new house and although she is not going to get one I can't justify the UHR purchase right now
    4) None - Gotta save for the kids college now since the 529's are 1/2 of what they were a year ago
    ....etc.

    Guess how many I bought? image

    I am in for one. I think that the lousy economy coupled with the Mint's possible inability to procure coin blanks might make the no mintage limit a moot point. HM

    Interesting point. By law does the mint have to stop at some point in time, such as the end of 2009, regardless? Would the mint be allowed to continue minting coins with the 2009 date on them after 2009, and even if they did would they fall to the status of Restrikes?
