    Mistakes happen, someone probably pushed the enter key and immediately thought, "OH Cr@p! That's gonna leave a mark!!"

    My order date for these is now set to 11/5/2010 and still show the item is no longer available. It's interesting that they decided upon 11/5 as the order date as I had them on subscription for months.

    I wonder if this whole thing can actually go down without a hitch???

    << <i>We are in the process of reinstating these orders and expect corrections to be completed by noon on Saturday, November 13, 2010. >>

    --US Mint

    Hmmm. Corrected by noon tomorrow? Why do I not have much confidence that this will be the case. Time will tell.

    As of 9:56 PM Eastern, I'm still waiting for my order to be corrected.
