Grand Canyon silver sales begin

The 2010 Yosemite silver 5-ounce uncirculated collector coin sold out its 27,000 maximum just as the 2010 Grand Canyon 5-ouncer went up for sale June 29 on the U.S. Mint website. On that date the Mint was still taking names of collectors who were willing to be placed on a waiting list for the Yosemite coin in case some earlier orders didn’t work out.

Mint Statistics

The 2010 Yosemite silver 5-ounce uncirculated collector coin is not sold out. The waiting list posting on the Mint’s website was an error. The Mint has 1,662 of the coins left, meaning that 25,338 have been sold. Buyers are pushing the 2010 Grand Canyon total toward the 27,000 sellout point, but at 20,834, there are probably a few more weeks to go before we reach the goal line at the 1,534-coin weekly sales rate of the last few days.
