Anybody know the intended mintages of the 2009 Platinum 1oz. Proofs?

In the past, they've offered them into April of the following year. Normally, they will run a batch and then wait to assess the volume of initial orders to see if further runs are required.

That was then. This is now. The Mint has cut so many bullion coins from their repertoire and has now added so many new programs for the next few years that it is hard to predict anything like Platinum mintages.

Assuming that the program isn't going to be cut entirely, I'd guess that the production of 1 oz. Proofs for 2009 will start out at 10,000 or less. Further, I'd guess that the first 10,000 will sell out simply because of the dearth of collector issues this year. That would make way for a 2nd run. Just my opinion, of course.
