09.01.2011 – Lucy Hayes First Spouse Gold Coins

Coin Category: First Spouse Gold Coins | Opening Price: Proof $ 1,054; Uncirculated $1,041

The first products offered by the United States Mint in September were the Lucy Hayes First Spouse Gold Coins. The numismatic issues are one-half ounce 24 karat gold coins, with the same diameter of the spouse’s corresponding Presidential $1 coins. The United States Mint produces them in two finishes, proof and uncirculated. The obverse has a portrait of the First Lady, and the reverse has an image emblematic from her life or work, which in this case is her involvement in the White House’s first Easter Egg Roll. Notably, one day after the coins launched, they were temporarily suspended due to gold’s rising price on the London Fix. Sales have since resumed, but not without a few weekly price changes. Presently, the proof is $1,079.00 and the uncirculated is $1,066.00.

09.01.2011 – Lucy Hayes Bronze Medal

Coin Category: Medals | Opening Price: $7.95

The Lucy Hayes Bronze Medal bears the likeness of the Lucy Hayes First Spouse Gold Coins, but has a larger diameter of 1 5/16 inches and is composed of bronze, not gold. The medal is struck in Philadelphia, not West Point like the gold coins, and lacks any inscriptions on its reverse. This numismatic item provides an economical option for collectors enjoying the series created by the Presidential $1 Coin Act of 2005 that honors four former Presidents and their spouses each year.

09.15.2011 – 2011-W Uncirculated American Silver Eagle Coin

Coin Category: American Eagle Coins | Opening Price: $60.45

One coin that is sure to grab the attention of collectors is the 2011-W Uncirculated American Silver Eagle Coin that the United States Mint has on its schedule for a September 15 release. As a member of the Mint’s most popular series, the uncirculated Silver Eagle is sure to make its way into many individuals’ collections. Two years ago, the Mint sold 436,702 Uncirculated Eagles, but that number is estimated to be higher this year since none were struck in 2009 and 2010. The uncirculated coin contains one-ounce of .999 fine silver, carries the West Point "W" mint mark, and comes packaged in a collector box with a Certificate of Authenticity.

09.20.2011 – Olympic Quarter Three-Coin Set

Coin Category: America the Beautiful Quarters | Opening Price: $14.95

The United States Mint will release the economical Olympic Quarter Three-Coin Set in mid-September. It is the third set of its kind this year and the eighth in the America the Beautiful Quarters series. The Olympic quarter celebrates the national park located in the state of Washington, and the design on its reverse features the rugged Mount Olympus. With a proof 2011-S, an uncirculated 2011-P, and an uncirculated 2011-D strike in each set, all of the United States Mint facilities that manufacture the clad quarters are represented. The set makes perfect sense for fans of the America the Beautiful Quarters.

09.22.2011 – Rutherford B. Hayes Presidential $1 Coin & Lucy Hayes First Spouse Medal Set

Coin Category: Presidential Dollars | Opening Price: $14.95

Both the Rutherford B. Hayes Presidential $1 Coin and the Lucy Hayes First Spouse Bronze Medal were recently released individually. Now both products come together in one collector set on September 22. They are packaged within a durable display card featuring the President and First Lady’s images amongst an American Flag in the background. The Rutherford B. Hayes dollar features his portrait on its obverse and the Statue of Liberty on the reverse. The Lucy Hayes bronze medal features the same designs as the First Spouse Gold Coins that honor her. Her portrait is on the obverse of the medal, and the reverse depicts Lucy’s participation in the first Easter Egg Roll held at the White House.

09.22.2011 – Gettysburg National Military Park 5 Ounce Silver Uncirculated Coin

Coin Category: National Park Silver Coins | Opening Price: $279.95

Also debuting on September 22 is the United States Mint’s collectible Gettysburg National Military Park 5 Ounce Silver Uncirculated Coin. It is the first 2011-dated silver coin and the sixth in the America the Beautiful coin series. The newest issue may sell out, given the first four issues have done so already and the fifth, celebrating Mount Hood, is close to selling out as of this writing. The 2011 Gettysburg 5 ounce silver uncirculated coin has a maximum mintage of 35,000 and an initial five coin per household order limit. It features the same designs as seen on the Gettysburg America the Beautiful Quarter released on January 27. The main differences are its 3-inch size, 5 ounces of .999 fine silver, and edge letterings denoting the fineness and weight.

10.4.2011 – Rutherford B. Hayes Presidential $1 Coin Cover

Coin Category: Presidential Dollars | Opening Price: $19.95

The Rutherford B. Hayes Presidential $1 Coin was released into circulation on August 18. The coin cover for release on October 4 is a collector product that includes two Hayes dollars from the first day of minting — one from Philadelphia and the other from Denver. These coins are packaged within a display card along with a U.S. 44-cent Flag postage stamp postmarked on the day they were sent into circulation. The Rutherford B. Hayes Presidential $1 Coin is the 19th release in the Presidential $1 Coin Program which debuted in 2007. The $1 coin cover has a production limit of 22,000 units.

10.18.2011 – Vicksburg Quarter Three-Coin Set

Coin Category: America the Beautiful Quarters | Opening Price: $14.95

The final United States Mint product scheduled thus far to launch in October is the 2011 Vicksburg Quarter Three-Coin Set, which honors Vicksburg National Military Park in Mississippi. The set is predicted to be a popular Mint collector product, and numismatists will likely buy more than 10,000 of them in the first week. The three coins in the set are all clad strikes, one proof Vicksburg quarter from San Francisco, an uncirculated Vicksburg quarter from Philadelphia and an uncirculated Vicksburg quarter from Denver. The circulation strikes were ceremoniously launched on August 30. The coin is the ninth in the America the Beautiful Quarters® Program and the second to honor an American Civil War site.
