The Mint continues to dole out the silver American Eagles at its usual rationed pace. Collectors took 14,317 more of the 2013-W silver proof Eagles.
The standard proof 2013-W gold Buffalo is still available for sale, but only 344 more were taken this week, bringing the running total to 14,676.
A few more asterisks were added to various sales options of Presidential dollars.
Sales of older First Spouse coins move along one or two at a time. Some sales numbers are almost identical, making it difficult to keep the mintages and designs straight.
