That one should be worth monsta money to someone. Or just slab it and keep it as your own modern crown jewel.

I tried too, but they didn't show up. I had to go back the silver proof and then look at the bottom of the page to find the other coins, click each one, let the page load, order, repeat.

Thanks for all the kind words. Son beyond thrilled. Pelosi's people taking us to VIP room to meet Brooks early. Amazing day. Coin will not b sold. Funny watching dealers and collectors hounding son and I w/offers. Work all night. Will post pics tomorrow.

You absolutely must get that slabbed at the show. If they would notate on your label that its the first coin sold you'd really have something historic. Those Dealers know what you got. You have a Grand Slam ball from a World Series game 7 where the underdawgs walked off with the whole thing.
OK maybe not that big but its big. Do yourself and the numismatic ( and Baseball ) worlds a favor and get that puppy slabbed.

Anyone else seeing a "Sold Out" status when you check your order under "My Account"? I can't see the actual order yet but my last order shows up and it says Sold Out
What are the "back-ordered " expected to ship" dates showing up for those who have placed the orders? My gold proof and Uncs are showing a date of 6/15/2014.

...so it is 50 each of the proof and gold for 100 total; 100 each for the proof and unc silver for a total of 200, same with the clad.

thanks for updating, i saw the limit, and them having the proof and Unc on the same line, but i missed the 'each'.
Just tried to place another order for the gold proofs. The site took my order but when I look at my order history page it shows my latest order is sold out. My guess is that the gold coins are long gone.
Never got in. Just sat there spinning after I got the "It's your turn" message. I had to leave to go do my Meels on Wheels delivery route, but I left the page up while I was away. I just got back and it was still spinning, so I closed it. I just tried to login again and I'm in the waiting room with a 44 minute wait. What a total, unmitigated disaster IMO. This is an improvement?? Shuffle you off to a wait room, where, when your wait is over there is no guarantee that you'll get in.
I sure hope MCM runs a special for us unfortunate board members...
Well...I Missed the whole thing...stuck in court...settled a case For a measely 35K...I'd said to my associate on the phone thats not Even 100 gold baseballs...He replied huh?
Got my order through fairly easily from waiting room at 12:30. Two each of gold and silver proofs and uncs. Email confirmation shows back order date of 4/10 for gold and silver unc and 3/28 for silver proof.
Collecting 1970s Topps baseball wax, rack and cello packs, as well as PCGS graded Half Cents, Large Cents, Two Cent pieces and Three Cent Silver pieces.
I can click around now without much trouble. Gold is shown as back ordered, not sold out. Given they are not yet minted, I can see the back order as they determine what quantity they need of each finish and will strike to satisfy the demand.

I didn't see a half hour wait at 12 today , it actually said 1 minute or less and pretty much put me straight in.
I have 3 browsers open, each with a unique ID at the bottom. All three were open minutes from each other.
You would think that if I was truly in line, that each one would tick down almost perfectly from the time they were open. Well, you thought wrong.

Browser 3- 29m
So much for holding a place correctly in line! New system is crap IMO

That's not what the US Mints homepage says right now. What's your source?
Household Order Limits: Due to the extremely strong anticipated demand for the 2014 National Baseball Hall of Fame Commemorative Coins, household order limits will apply as follows:
