I looked in the US Mint's site and saw nothing. We've already got the Merc, but with two more coins left in this series, we're running out of time. Why didn't the mint make a schedule on these things?

I knew it would happen.
Why didn't the mint make a schedule on these things?
1) They are incompetent
2) They likely do have a schedule but have elected to keep it internal
3) They don't care about collectors and planning/budgeting. What they have WILL sell and they WILL make a huge profit, no matter how they handle this
4) By not publishing a schedule, they can manipulate things however they want.....wait for higher gold prices, etc, and no one can whine.
5) When it comes to be forthright and positive for collectors, see #1 above (ie...they are incompetent.
I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

I'd say w/i the next five months, give or take.
Wise guy huh?
My original prediction, based on mint activity from past years, was August and that doesn't look likely at this point. With two pieces to go you have to figure Sept don't you??
Ron...that is a very accurate assessment.... While I am not really interested in the first two, I do have a mild interest in the WLH.... not sure if I will acquire one, but I find it interesting. Cheers, RickO
