    Same here. However, mine also shows "Your order request is in process" and my Cancel Box is still available. I'm guessing that the cancel box is the key indicator.

    I got my order in the first hour @ 12.55, checked it yesterday and it was the 6th, today got the email stating it would be the 20th. Now I am not a rocket scientist and only have a degree in physics but correct me if I am off base here...the Mint supposedly got ~40K orders in the first 4 days and per another thread has made so far about 20K+ of the coins. Since my order was in the first hour and they don't have the item yet to ship assuming they are shipping as they should be in chronological order that would mean that more than the entire production so far was ordered within the first hour. Hmmmm.....doesn't really add up to me. I think something is not correct with all of this.

    If I messed up a 47 million dollar order at work I would be out of a job...why is this tolerated at the Mint? Especially for these collectibles? Does the Mint not care anything about its reputation? Sure it is run by the government but that is no excuse.

    I'm not getting into an open ended flame war with a guy who eats conflict for breakfast, but I will say: 'lay off' when appropriate... even if you dont have interest, let other people have their fun. People like feeling 'involved'. Your comments aren't adding anything here. People collecting UHRs is just as legitimate a collecting persuit as you collecting Saints or $5 indians or icelandic tokens or whatever your doin now!

    So the question is if anyone currently has a UHR in their possession and the Mint has not yet mailed any out does that make the possessor a criminal? Rumor has it that some guy traded ten 1933 Saints for ten UHRs. image
