The United States Mint introduced two products last week: the James A. Garfield Presidential Silver Medal on April 30, and the 2024-W Proof American Gold Eagles on May 2. Both were among the top weekly sellers for the U.S. Mint.
Priced at $75, the 1-ounce .999 fine silver medal featuring Garfield recorded initial sales of 13,910, making it the U.S. Mint’s best-selling product for the week ending May 5. Its sales already surpass those of any other Presidential silver medal released since 2021, except for the Abraham Lincoln medal, which has reached 19,017. That said, a similar situation briefly occurred with the two preceding medals honoring Rutherford B. Hayes and Ulysses S. Grant. However, both later experienced some negative adjustments.
Released on May 2 with prices ranging from $365 to $5,980, the newest collection of proof Gold Eagles saw a combined 25,280 coins ordered within four days. In contrast, last year’s proof Gold Eagle products recorded combined sales of 36,274 coins, while those from 2023 posted total sales of 54,222, all within their respective four-day starting periods. The initial prices for the 2022 and 2023-dated proof Gold Eagles were the same and lower than those for 2024.
To provide a clearer insight into their sales performance, here’s a breakdown of debut sales by product option for the years 2022, 2023, and 2024:

I’m in for the 2024 Proof 1/10th ounce AGE. I buy one every year for my daughter.
Cheers
Good on you, E 1.
E 1,
Very thoughtful and surely much appreciated.
L&B gold is down seven more coins. Also, the gold proof eagles charts are interesting. There is a clear trend line over the past couple of years and it ain’t up.
Some additional context: Reb, I’m guessing that, at least part of that decrease in opening day sales, can be attributed somewhat to the rise in spot Au price? As I know, you’re well aware, that part of the “trend line” is up. LOL Proof American Gold Eagle launch day, March 17, 2022, Au spot was $1,949.65. Proof American Gold Eagle launch day, March 30, 2023, Au spot was $1,968.10. For the 2024 release on May 2, 2024, Au spot price was $2,288.90.
I did not make myself clear at all. I meant the SALES trend line is down. Sorry for the confusion.
As I’ve said before I like buying Au but with Au’s spot price ramping up, and lets not forget about the mints nearly $1K added value premium, it doesn’t surprise me in the least to see fewer sales of Au coins. Au is Au and fortunately the mint isn’t the only source for one to procure it. One thing is clear today, with Au spot up over $33, anyone who owns Au is a ‘happy camper’. REB is doing back flips…Lol.
Thumbs up! (unless gold drops in price like pyrite).
Major D, in the previous thread(Great Post BTW), re: the recap of 1976, spurred by our upcoming Sesquincentennial, made me flash on one of my fondest memories of childhood. “The American Freedom Train (AFT) was a 26-car train led by one of three enormous steam engines restored just for the occasion. Over a 21 month period from April 1, 1975 to December 31, 1976 more than 7 million Americans visited the train during its tour of all 48 contiguous states. Tens of millions more stood trackside to see it go by. It was by far the greatest event on rails… Read more »
CaliSkier,
I’ve been a major railroad buff all my life, and it appears this nostalgic event would have been a fabulous contribution to my enjoyment of their golden years. All aboard!
I’d like a Walt Disney “coin” released…i mean honestly…how many of us don’t have at least 1-1000+ Disney items in our homes and he’s been dead for 58 years! THAT would be a great collector coin!
Domenic,
That would be an interesting coin. I don’t have 1000 Disney items in my house, but I have several limited pieces from the early Disney Conventions in Florida that I display prominently. I haven’t bought anything since they started manufacturing everything in China.
Curious if others here saw Platinum is higher than Palladium. Interesting, Palladium has really fallen from her “perch”! Just goes to show you just how truly precious metals can fluctuate. I’m still ALL IN on Gold, that is Pre ‘33. I almost have a credit card paid off and once it’s paid off, I’ll be purchasing Pre ‘33 Gold, with Cash!! We always pay our credit cards off every month, we have it set up with our bank and cc company to automatically pay it off. We had some big expenses, building a house myself and we took advantage of… Read more »
AKBob, did you happen to put a “guest” room in that humble abode of yours? Just curious, as chopping, splitting wood, cooking, ski lessons, fishing, wound care, chain saw operation, gardening, fire building, are just a few skill sets in my repertoire, that Ive acquired over the years, not to mention my “gift of gab”, and a shared interest in the Great Outdoors and coins! Just saying(wink, wink)… LOL
All I can say is what my Father In Law said to all 5 of his daughters once they got old enough to leave the nest and go to college. You’re welcome to come back to visit anytime but……….if you stay longer than 2 weeks, you’re paying rent, lol!! I kinda adopted that as we have lots of family and friends come for a visit and our new house has a huge loft upstairs, has it’s own bathroom, 65” TV, etc. every single person that’s stayed with us have told us they feel like they’re staying in an Air b&b.… Read more »
AKBob,
What a fascinating story. You’re a regular self-sufficient modern pioneer!
AK congratulations on your new home! It sounds so nice there. Speaking of Gold(not 33), you have a couple of Lib/Brits on their way in a few weeks! Me too and guess what? I had one delivered the other day! – yeah that one lol, the first strike -70. They ‘finally’ sent me what they sent you–not the actual coin…yet. I’m going submit & sell the Mint delivery coin to cover a high end Morgan(maybe?).. The Lib/Brits have been quiet lately and it’s understandable – they are a sleeper(pun)! Hopefully they’ll blow some skirts up! It’s good to hear from… Read more »

I’m glad you finally got a letter! I didn’t get one recently. I have received one a couple months ago I think. I did get one tho. I’m getting excited about our L&B Gold coin! I too am hoping it’s a “sleeper” AND will blow a lot of skirts up, lol! I thot I was the only person that still says that saying, lol!! I have one coming from the mint too!

Good for you, AKBob. I’m like you in that I hate paying any interest and haven’t since 1995. Concerning your life on an Alaskan island, I’m assuming you like cold weather..Lol.
Craig, thx for the response. I live in Southeastern Alaska which is much like the Pacific Northwest. Very green we’re I’m at. I live in the middle of the Tongas National Forrest. Our weather is rain, rain, more rain, lol! I hate rain and here I live in a frickin Rainforest, lol!! Go figure! We get snow, plenty too but not too much.

AKBob,
My wife and I did it the same way, getting all of our travel fever out of our systems in our forties, fifties and early sixties, and now in our later seventies we are very happy to be hunkered down in our bunker, as we like to say.
AKBob, regarding Palladium, the high price, from days after the Russian invasion to now, has been a precipitous fall indeed. Much like, many oligarchs, since the invasion(2022) as well. They seem to have had a small problem with gravitational forces and other instances of “bad luck”? “aviation expert died under strange circumstances: the former head of the Moscow Aviation Institute Anatoly Gerashchenko was pronounced dead after falling down “several sets of stairs” Also, “Maganov appeared to have fallen from a sixth-story window, the reports said. Some sources claimed he tripped and fell while smoking, stating a pack of cigarettes was… Read more »
Cali also it seems that being a former Boeing employee with a few ‘stories’ to tell can lead to a sudden illness & death! Even while otherwise quite healthy? I’m hoping for a successful 2 man test flight into orbit soon — they’re due for some good press these days…
Rick and CaliSkier,
This unfortunate turn of events for Boeing whistleblowers bears a rather striking resemblance to the trend in Russia of “out of favor with Putin” oligarchs and generals leaping willy-nilly one after the other to their deaths out of high-rise hotels’ upper windows.
Comparing apples and oranges, but here are the combined sales across all options for each of the 2023 ASE, Morgan & Peace, and for the 2024 W-Proof ASE as of the US Mint’s 5-5-2024 sales report from lowest to highest. (NA means Not Available):
2023-W Uncirculated ASE: 161,941
2023-S Proof ASE: 234,449
2023(P) Uncirculated Morgan: 273,720 (NA)
2023(P) Uncirculated Peace: 273,942 (NA)
2024-W Proof ASE: 322,524
2023-S Proof Peace: 335,828
2023-S Proof Morgan: 367,554
2023-W Proof ASE: 560,416 (NA)
No wonder the price for generic ASE proofs has collapsed
sales are down at USM prices way up, FOMO bs lives, see Al AI 1$…. But buy g proof gold now will be profitable asap when spots $3k
Uhh meant$4,000
John Q., I see it all as a matter of risk. Some lesser, some greater. Not a lot of risk buying a $25 roll of AI dollars for $34.50. Whereas dropping $3,200 for a 1-oz AGE proof, when spot is at $2,309, I’d say is much greater risk. Same for ASE, Morgan and Peace paying $80 when silver spot is $27.
FOMO AI Rocket Rolls? Yep guilty as charged. Cali & Major – they got me! Actually the reverse is great…
Also some past tv madness…
Coin Vault lol, George Foreman Grill – had to have it!
And yes — A ShamWow! Lol
yes! and can’t leave out Phil Swift’s FlexSeal, and all the stuff pitched by the late great Billy Mays before that!

Ron Pompeil started it all, now gonna o,Au with TV Winky Dink and you…..
Rick, Major D, CaliSkier and John Q. Coinage,
Indeed, we can count on that for sure; there’s always more! 🙂
Loved the grill, till I bought and tried, cleaning is a PIA…..pan or BBQ #1
Rick,
I recall with great amusement how advertisers apparently thought of Australian accents as a big plus for the believability of their commercials.
Agreed, the British as well. Much more believable than my simplistic ‘Western’ accent…
Rick,
That’s true also, but the upper-crusty British one, not the cockney accent version, I would imagine. Along that line, people here in the USA usually think I’m from Chicago even though I grew up speaking Viennese German simply because I was taught “American Broadcast English” (which just so happens to be based on “Chicago-ese”) in the U.S. Army schools in Austria and Germany.
Someone is happy, I see dead coins, I mean Demand Destruction achieved……. Predict 30% plus Garfield returns as buyers remorse not Garfield the CAT
JQ, she has a low skirt and it needs to stay that way, trust me. Garfield it’s not going to be remorse – it’s slabber -70 rejects, just wait until week 3. 30% returns is plausible.. Flowing Hair will look fake, sorry.. Anything above MS65 for an 1899 $2.50 Gold–just add 1k per grade, then another 1k for a ‘+’ and 1k for a green bean sticker, nuts for 4 grams lolol…I do like them(thank you), but I like pre-33 Silver Dollars in 66 to 68 if possible all day… I’m hooked on new & old coins I guess….

I was just “spacing out”… The US Mint has “flipped the script”! Encouraging words for sure. The subscription for the US Armed Forces Silver Medals now reads: “ Next Product in Subscription: U.S. Space Force One-Ounce Silver Medal Ships TBD”. Due to the Mint pricing, I’m all but done with moderns besides a scant order for 2 Uncirculated Mint sets/year. $229 for a 5oz’er was pricey, however I’m definitively out on $380 silver pucks from the Mint. A better chance than not that by the time the next 5oz coin is issued, the price will be, $425 or more. Always… Read more »
LOL you nailed it with that photo! By the article, you can add Kennedy 2-rolls.
Why or what is so difficult at the US Mint? Why are they unable to get their product pages consistently populated with accurate or “known” information? Why are they unable to proof read or have a system of accurate checks and balances in place? Data entry, isn’t that difficult, is it? Makes zero “cents” and I can’t imagine excuses provided for, basically not getting the job accomplished accurately? This has been happening for as long as I can remember? 2022 RP AI $1 set, lists both a product and mintage limit of 50,000. Fine! Then in 2023 we are only… Read more »
CaliSkier, following on the thread before this one– I’m much more interested in how the 1976 Silver Uncirculated Kennedy Half could have an 11 million mintage in all of the record books, when the Red Pack seemingly only had 4.9 million? What information has the Mint been feeding these sources, and why can’t a 6.1 million count discrepancy get resolved? My hunch is that, when it comes to destroying or melting surplus sets, the Mint does a horrible job of accounting and reporting accurate counts to the public– leaving it all to be a great mystery, with the possibility of… Read more »
Does anyone Notice that there are only 46-stars (not 50) encircling Liberty on the photo of the American Eagle Gold coin above?
Be patient SteveW, your post may not show up until tomorrow because you are new here — So good to see your name SteveW!! Welcome!!
Steve W wrote: “Does anyone Notice that there are only 46-stars (not 50) encircling Liberty on the photo of the American Eagle Gold coin above?” The AGE design is taken from the $20 Saint-Gaudens gold coin which was commissioned by Theodore Roosevelt. On November 16, 1907, the Indian and Oklahoma territories combined to form the state of Oklahoma, the 46th state admitted to the Union. Hence, 46 stars.
Thank you for answering my question.
I received a mint survey today. It looks like they are considering doing a deal with DC comics for a 3 design per year series starting in 2025. They are also looking to do an American musician series with 3 designs per year. They are proposing to do both series with a fractional gold coin and 3 different medals in 2.5 ounce silver, 1 ounce silver and a clad using half dollar blanks. I said no to them all because the prices match the current gold and silver premiums and I don’t do medals. The cartoon coins will be next…
Shark, think about what Major D said yesterday — about how many Numi products that they had in 1976. Now look at what Mike Unser reported above in his article…450 Mint Numi Products. Like I said above — it is unprecedented and fully out of control… I agree with you.
cagcrisp… Join SteveW and chime in here .. you addressed this very issue and gave us some clues as to why the Mint is doing this. Obviously it has to do with Capitalism, but enough is enough. Thanks…
I totally agree with you — way too many! It’s starting to remind me of stamp collecting. At some point, as it seems to be going, the Mint will simply say “send us a picture and we’ll put it on a coin for you” (kind of like the photo cakes you can order from the bakery).
Rick,
The mint’s cart is getting ahead of the congressional horse.
E 1,
Isn’t that simply a chaotic Mint-o-matic version of the old rear wheel drive?
That’s interesting to hear sharks2th. While the subject matter doesn’t interest me, I do believe that Congress must pass a bill for any new US Mint coin series, and the president must sign into law before the Mint can produce it (that whole Schoolhouse Rock thing). By “coin” I mean it has a face value and is legal tender. Otherwise, it could be a medal series that the Mint does on its own. However, if you’re talking a fractional gold coin, I’m pretty sure that this would have to be signed into law first. The Royal Mint has done rock… Read more »
And the Royal Canadian Mint has done the Justice League
MajorD, I believe in the past the mint has been given leeway to do gold coins without legislation. That would explain why the silver versions are medals, to get them around the legislation and commemorative requirements. I forgot about that process/power, but it explains why the Silver options are medals and not coins. This also explains why the liberty series silver are medals and not coins…
The first 3 DC heroes would be Superman, Wonder Woman and Batman. The first 3 American musicians would be women – Dolly, Selena and Aretha. I got the impression the next 3 musicians would be men.
The 1/2 ounce gold would be in the $1550 price range, the 2.5oz. Silver would be $200, the 1oz. Silver would be $90 and the 3 medal clad set for each series would be $50. These prices are based on current bullion prices.
According to the US Mint web site: “A coin or medal starts with legislation. Congress passes laws to authorize the Mint to make coins and medals with certain designs and purposes.” Design and Selection Process | How Coins Are Made | U.S. Mint (usmint.gov) I’d say not exactly accurate in that the President is the one to sign a bill into law (or not sign, in which case the bill dies). Congress passes bills, not laws. But, to follow the multitude of bills, laws and amendments you need to be a legal expert IMO. So, who knows? Maybe there is… Read more »
Major D and sharks2th,
It has long been my understanding that the Mint can initiate and produce all the medals of any metal (har dee har har) and as many gold coins – and only gold coins – as it wants.
Major D said: “Steve W wrote: “Does anyone Notice that there are only 46-stars (not 50) encircling Liberty on the photo of the American Eagle Gold coin above?”” So here is a fun with numbers game? Original St Gaudens had i46 stars. 1912-1933 versions had 48. Then we move to 50, in 1986 and again back to 46, for the TyII versions(2021). Wonder if there are any added or missing star errors using this St Gaudens obverse design???
Major D, a part of the problem regarding the 1976 Silver Unc set(Red Pack) lies in the fact, published mintage data from the time period in question, is limited to old “News print, for the most part. According to this Spruce Crafts article, indeed, many millions were destroyed in the 80’s. Excerpt from article by James Bucki and link: “What You Need to Know About Bicentennial Quarters” “1776-1976-S uncirculated silver-clad (40% silver): 11,000,000* 1776-1976-S Proof silver-clad (40% silver): 4,000,000*” *Several million silver Bicentennial quarters were melted in the 1980s. So while there are still millions of silver 1976 Bicentennial quarters… Read more »
CaliSkier, I’ve seen the same 11,000,000 and the 4,000,000 mintage numbers for the Unc and the Proof from different sources- and I immediately question them on the basis that the Mint never, ever ends up with large round numbers like that. It just doesn’t happen. So, were these perhaps product limits? And if a large quantity was melted down, it had to be the Mint doing it- so why weren’t there any accurate counts of this reported? The Mint does do accounting, right? And audits? I would think that they would have to count what is being destroyed to know… Read more »
my bad, I meant (dollar, half and quarter). there were no silver dimes in 1976!
Major D a few notes to consider. Wikipedia has a pretty good history of how this all went down. Unfortunately you need the resource books/articles(purchase/subscription) to obtain what has been written? Also, the US Mint was formerly known as the Bureau of the Mint. Additionally, some information used to be published under: “Department of the Treasury News”, in regards to things happening at the US Mint. The Wikipedia entry has the 4 million number and has dates for destruction of sets in 1982 and sales ending in 1987. The products changed price on at least 2 occasions. Once due to… Read more »
Thanks, however it is still a big mystery as to the leftover mintage. San Fran made 45 million of the silver? Was this a typo?
I think the 45M is inclusive of all quarters, halves, and dollars in Silver BU and Silver Proof. ” A large number were melted.” Curious to what that large number(s) is/are. Nice piece of info Cali.
(11Mx3=33M) + (4Mx3=12M) = 45M
Cheers
Thanks! That makes sense.
All we need now is one more piece of information – “The total number of 1976-S Silver coins that were melted down or scrapped by the mint.” Then the publishers can update the true mintages for those coins. Major D, I agree, that 11,000,000 mintage number is unusual, suspicious, and a little to round. The true mintage numbers will be important, since the 1976 Silver Bicentennial coins will most likely get more attention from collectors when the new 250th Anniversary Centennial coins come out in 2026.
