    This is the message on my order from the mint web site. Does anyone know what is going on with the proof silver eagles?

    There is one thread on the US Coin forum too.
    I have received the same email few minutes ago and my subscription says that the item is no longer available.

    The US Mint reps don't know anyhthing.
    Micheal at MintNewsBlog is trying to get a statement from the Mint.

    We'll see what happen. I feel they are going to skip one more year. image

    In the meantime, the presales on eBay are going for crazy money!

    Just got off the phone with the mint and they claim it is a computer glitch. They said there are plenty in the warehouse that will start shipping Nov 20th. She claims my order would be filled and to ignore the email and the message on my account track order page. Why do I not belive this is not going to be a problem. image

    The coins go on sale a week from tomorrow. The Mint is no longer taking subscriptions, that is all. You will have to buy them online or call in now. It is only the cessation of subscriptions that is going on. In their usual manner the Mint has fouled up the communication of exactly what is going on.

    No they cancelled all the existing subs in the system. I have had one set for years. They claim it was the computer, time will tell

    This post is useless without pictures! image

    Let's hope that's true. It seems that the website shows as cancelled all the subscriptions, not only the ones for the ASE proof.

    Good Luck on the 20th. That's a Saturday.

    They screwed something up.



    A few weeks ago some people got cancellation e-mails about another item, but their orders weren't even cancelled. SSDD
