These are already common bullion BS Coins.


The Back Order status from the beginning of the ordering period, with no explanations offered from the Mint,
casts a dark shadow over these Coins .

Much like the dark shadow cast over the JFK Gold Halves by the circus at the ANA Convention.

Camelot bullion.

They increased the total mintage in anticipation of larger demand compared to previous recent First Spouse issues. It's a real dropped ball at the goal line and confidence destroyer in the Mints management after months of, supposed, preparation. Epic poor communications. A blown opportunity once again.

Its messed up that many are saying they have these proofs in hand purchased at the kiosk. I know that I was on right at 9am refreshing the proof page first to see it instantly on backorder when I go to make my purchase. How the mint could have blown this opportunity is beyond me. Do they not have ANYONE working there that has any business experience?

Acting Director Peterson sees any sale as a good sale.

My suggestion is to fax him a complaint. I have the fax number if you need it.
