    Yep...my date JUST changed to 2/20, for the coin...the book has always been 2/20. Sigh...I guess I'll be lucky to remain a customer with my own USMint account at this rate...not that it's dong me any good...almost all my orders of late have been canceled. Gotta stop ordering things AFTER the hype...

    << <i>I am going to check my 2 orders immediately after this post - I have an order # of 3084xxxx and 3083xxxx. The 3083xxxx was backordered to 3/17 but showed ship order date of 2/06 (book and coin) on the website with an "on hold" status. The 3084xxxx order showed a ship date to 2/06 (book and coin) with NO emails stating any push backs. The status was "on hold for that one also. I realize everyone is on pins and needles so here goes....... cya in 5 minutes!

    JC >>



    Update: both order numbers now list a ship date of 2/20 for the coin and 2/06 for the book. Both orders have moved to a 'in process' status

    Maybe they are waiting for all orders to be in. Then they will know how many books to produce. Then they will be able to send them all out on the same day. Maybe 1/28/10 is the actual ship date.

    Maybe it would help if those of you living near the fullfillment center gather outside and demand the release of the UHRDE.

    I believe yours is the earliest reported order. It is beginning to look like availability of the book is the problem. It will be real interesting to learn whether the coins will head out before the book.

    Yesterday both book & coin had ship date of 2/6

    Today it has ship date for book & coin 2/20

    Also-they have added another $50 as of today $1289.

    QUICK QUESTION:

    Has PCGS determined a cut off date for "First Strike" Designation
    for the UHR yet?


    Thanks
  • Options
    I emailed PCGS regarding their First Strike designation "if received within the first 30 days of release", and I received a reply yesterday from PCGS customer service:

    PCGS has yet to solidify a first strike cutoff date for this coin because of all the delays. They are going by when people are sent the first shipments which we don’t know at this point. I hope this helps. If you have any further questions, please call customer service at 1-800-447-8848.

    Interesting. Almost sounds like they are saying the coin is being reserved until the book is ready to ship on the 20th. Still curious if any orders will have gone out by the end of this week (tomorrow) as the telephone reps apparently promised to those who called last week.

    It seem that we step forward one step and then step back two steps, What is going on, they play the shipping date like the ship is threading water, maybe they only have one employee that keeping the ship afloat, question, what do you guys think?

    OK guys,

    I just had a BRIGHT idea image

    Since "The Book" seems to be the hold up and since "The BOOK" and the "COIN" have seperate cancel boxes why doesn't some brave sole try cancelling the book only and see if it causes your coin to ship? image

    OK, THE BIG DAY IS HERE - or is it? Many have seen their Order Status change on almost a daily basis, but it appears that at least those who placed their orders in the first half hour on the 22nd are now getting the following message when clicking on "Track Order:" Coin - In stock and reserved. Book - Expected to ship 02/06/2009.

    Appears I'll get the coin first, then the book. Order #30834XXX.

    Order placed the day of sale, at 1:01 pm Eastern time.

    Thought about lightly circulating this piece in my pocket, get it down to AU58, then submit.

    That would be kinda neat, pop 1 for the grade. What do you think? Would PCGS grade it?

    Why wouldn't they grade it? Just send money.

    And if you're going for notoriety, make sure to submit it in the first 30 days, then you will have a First Strike AU58 Pop 1.

    Welcome Captain Q

    From past experience with the 20th Anniversary AGE/AGE sets, even once the cancel box disappears, they can re-appear.

    You never know what actually is happening until you see the package in hand.

    Another government conspiracy. There are no gold blanks available and won't be until must later this year. The mint should just come right out and say that orders will not begin shipping until mid-March at the earliest regardless of how early you ordered the coin on the first day. This would help their credibility instead of stringing us along.

    From another poster's comment (cancel book and get coin sooner)... what if I cancelled the coin, but kept the book order active? The book would be sent to me at $0 cost. What could I flip this one-of-a-kind book for on Ebay?
