U.S. Mint now states UHR coins available shipping date 2/27/09

Just went on the mint website to check my status and it says my coins is expected to ship 02/06/09 but is on backorder.

For new buys the U.S. mint states shipping of this product will be available on 02/27/09.

If a few get them before the rest the First Strikes are going to few to boot.

    Since only 29,000 were produced initially ... a lot of orders placed after the first few hours, will have to wait a lot longer than 2/27/09

    Website says 3/20/09 as of right this second.

    Mine just says "in stock and reserved."

    I don't know what "in stock and reserved" means - but i guess it doesn't matter, it will get here when it gets here.

    It must mean yours is one of the first 29,000.

    I guess if you printed out the original confirmation you could always apply for a refund of the difference after you get your coin.

    Others may be well advised to follow your example and create their own paper trail. I suspect the Mint will correct errors in pricing if one has the supporting documentation.
