7 October 2008 - 15:37First Spouse Gold Mintage Update
With the First Spouse Gold Coins in full swing with the seventh coin released, now is an interesting time to look at the final mintages and sales figures for each coin in the series so far.
The first three coins of the series honoring Martha Washington, Abigail Adams, and Andrew Jackson’s Liberty had quickly sold out their entire authorized mintage of 40,000 on the first day of sales. After that point, each subsequent release had experienced a decline in sales.
The most recent release for Andrew Jackson’s Liberty seems poised to break this trend. This release has several things going for it. First, Andrew Jackson was one of the relatively better known Presidents. Second, the price of gold has been on the upswing once again. Third, the design reproduces the classic Capped Bust Liberty Half Dollar coin.
Without further ado, here are the mintage and sales figures for all releases of the First Spouse Gold Coin Series so far.
