Cannot see this in the source page! where are you getting this number from?

Got an order in #17192XXX. Fingers crossed they come through.

Scroll down, and look for "ats" on the left.

Thank you very much! So now the inventory is just: 17,439 coins left.

Last ditch effort for those who didn’t get 1.
After this—the USM will probably not screw around any longer and clear the shelves before ship date arrives.

So far prices have gone up, not down. And the same thing happened with the flowing hair medals. They understruck the mintage limits, and everyone still wanted them.

Most collectors want low mintage, not high mintage. Low mintage usually brings a premium to what they pay, and so they would be happy to receive this coin with a 75k mintage as opposed to a 100k mintage.

Agree, and I have no idea as to why this is a problem for some people. The over analyzing & overthinking of Mintage Limits has become an annoyance now. You would think that one would learn from their past poor record on the subject, maybe not.
75k would be a good thing for everyone, including the Mint if this number holds up. We'll see.

100p

100 pence.....huh?

Means 100 percent

That’s fortuitous because on Monday the Mint canceled my paid for order placed on the first day of sale !? Paid by PayPal and valid checking acct so no idea why they canceled. Bizarre.
Just reordered and paid by credit card - not holding my breath to actually get one.

Steve,
One or more items in your order have been cancelled. If you did not request a cancellation, it was cancelled because the item(s) are no longer in our inventory or available for backorder.
We apologize for the inconvenience. If you paid by credit card, gift card, or PayPal you won’t be charged.

Gotcha, trying to be funny again- did not work again.

6655 coins left.

I just got one sucked in by the hype, this is almost 5 hours after they sent me a forgotten reminder text. They should have sold out by now...no?

No since the limit is just one coin.....
I was planning to order 5 coins if I had the chance, and then it would have sold out quicker.

5971 coins left......

Surely this disrupts the secondary market tremendously, no? At least in the short-term.

No

@jmlanzaf
No

I’m interested, tell me more. Are you saying the secondary market on these is driven by the Big Boys looking to slab? Because I would think everyone who wanted one personally has had ample opportunity to do so. It’s a genuine question, just trying to understand your thoughts.

Was able to get an extra order in just a couple mins ago. Still a few left it seems.

Everyone expected 100k from the beginning. There are still only 100k of them. Nothing has changed. The original $200 bid was posted BEFORE the first release

6:30 PM EST and still available!!!!

This is just not that hot an issue

Hard to say when there are 100K and you can only buy 1. Let them sit unsold if/when the HLL is lifted, and then pronounce it "just not that hot an issue."

I agree, however when the prospect of 75k mintage came up - it was temporarily hot (to me) due to the lower number.
It'll still end up in the top 10 lowest ASE's list (not a bad thing), and that list ⇊ will soon be expanding...

2019-S Enhanced Reverse Proof: mintage = 29,909
1995-W Proof: mintage = 30,102
2008-W Reverse of 2007 Uncirculated: mintage = 46,318
2020-W v75 Privy Proof: mintage = 74,709
2011-P Reverse Proof: mintage = 99,882
2011-S Uncirculated: mintage = 99,882
2019-W Enhanced Reverse Proof: mintage = 109,675
2017-S Proof: mintage = 123,799
2021-S Reverse Proof – Type 2: mintage = 124,881
2021-W Reverse Proof – Type 1: mintage = 124,881

3567 coins left......

Not at all hard to tell. Issues of 100k or even more used to sell out instantly even with HHL of 1. This puppy has taken days to sell out.
