Order #1, Silver Privy 12438XXX

Apx. 1133 orders between order 1 and order 2 (about 30 seconds).
How come you didn’t put them on the same order and save yourself $4.95? Assuming you haven’t placed enough orders this year already to get free shipping. Unless the set was an after thought.
HHL is certainly interesting. None on the half and dollar coin. 3 on the gold. 1 on the limited edition privy, 2-coin and 3coin. Almost makes sense. Sure is a nice sound to hear those that want these are going through the ordering process with out difficulties, so far 😉
I love these coins! Great job Mint!! And ordering was as smooth as silk. Absolutely no delays or problems. Are collectors sleeping through these? I got:
"How come you didn’t put them on the same order and save yourself $4.95?" I also bought separately. Many reasons to do it. May want to put away sealed for future sale. May want to send to PCGS first strike grading. May need to send back one defective product to Mint.
The available count is not dropping. Only shows 3 have sold. Probable glitch. I think orders are going in above the stated limit by mistake. The privy and medal set should have sold out.
I get goosey when the mintages are fairly high and any extra value or perceived rarity exists primarily in the packaging. Couple this with the one coin or set limit and I'm out. The dollars and halves will not be sellouts anytime soon and anyone who wants the privies or 3-coiners will be able to get one. Call me a fool later but I just don't see these going anywhere.

Interesting as it is counting now, but for a long time it did not move. That is also indicating very low demand.
Wow that is a terrible sales number at this point. The limit here may backfire for the mint. Cancellations may be next. Also quality is a big question mark. I never thought the mint would ship such terrible quality as they did with the Morgans. Who knows what kind of quality we get going forward.

Of the privy I should specify.
what do you see for the medal set that had a product limit of 15,000?

I’m not at the computer now to check but like 15 minutes ago I think it was like 10,000.

Seems to be about 1/3 of each have sold.
Something really has changed. Those sales are really low for an hour. I wonder if the eBay 1099 form has a lot of flippers out of the game combined with the 4-month wait just killing sales, or something else.
I always get one of each my commemorative set, but it does seem that interest is fading. I really thought more that 10,000 of the silver privy coin would have sold by now.

Of course it was easy. These will probably never sell out. It'll be even easier to buy them next month.
No, Next month the price goes up $5 per coin.
I said easier, not cheaper. And if gold keeps dropping, that one might be cheaper also.
It just seemed that people were surprised there wasn't a long line to check out.
After last year I have a very good idea why. The mint didn’t do itself any favors last year.😉
It has nothing to do with last year. This type of issue is never that hot. Most commems that come with 400,000 mintage limits have very limited appeal. There is no secondary market. No one has probably issued a bid on them. So you don't have any flippers involved.

JM. The question was about why they were surprised. My answer is spot on. One of several reasons. Last year was the topic. You have additional comments but don’t slam my opinion. I respect your knowledge but don’t appreciate your gruffness.

Aw shucks….I’ll edit the subject of this thread to make it official. 😅

Picked up both halves, both regular dollars, the privy dollar and the Jackie set. No issues at all.
Love shiny silver coins and I like the design on these.

buy them because you want them.
I think these will be available on sale for a while, and the Mint may even remove the HHL really soon.
I wonder why they didn’t do a gold privy?

Commems are generally not hot at all
Only 13,167 privy mark left. Lets not all rush at once to get one.
This commem. is DOA
Didn't even bother trying. Not for me.
I buy because I like them and want them for my collection. If they sell out, fine. If not, I will not lose sleep over it.
Anyone receive confirmation email(s)?

Clip art coinage.
I almost went for the privy. Just couldn't go through with it.
I chased SEs and Morgans/Peace last year, but that might have been it for me.
Nothing to chase here
It’s not running away

Off the top of my head the only commem that I recall selling out, at least quickly, was the buffalo dollar years ago.
The Lincoln dollars might have sold out, as well.
It is SO nice when the flippers, bots, and secondary market are kept at bay while collectors can easily get a coin they like.
