2008-W American Eagle Platinum uncirculated coins were again the big U.S. Mint movers.
Since last week’s figures, one-ounce sales surged 46.5 percent to 980 coins. They are now the last standing coin in the series after sales of the one-half ounce size spiked to 18.5 percent and sold out on Monday.
Double-digit percent rises were also seen across the one-half and one-quarter ounce 2008-W American Buffalo Gold proof coins.
Interestingly, several coins show declines. The Mint readjusted prices lower two weeks ago, likely resulting in at least some returns from customers who previously paid higher prices and decided on a refund. Mint accounting adjustments could be another factor.
Here are the latest Mint sales figures for the major American Eagle and American Buffalo collector products:
