American Gold Eagle proof mintages
 

Ok guys I need some help with this. I am looking for the mintage totals for the various years and denomination of the American Gold Eagles proofs. Does anyone have this info?

The mint has a web page for the mintages of the business strikes http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/...=MintageTotals but none, or a least I haven't found it, for the proof coins.
I did find this page http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/...american_proof which if you do some addition work you should be able to come up with mintage numbers right? If you open the page you will see a chart for the year 2003. If we add the total unit sales amount in the 4 coins set to each of the individual coin we should get the total mintage for each denomination. For example for the 2003 1/2 ounce there were 7758 sold singlely + 20512 sold in the 4 coin set = 28270 1/2 oz GAE proofs minted in 2003.
I called customer relations at the mint and spoke with someone about this and he told me he wasn't sure of the accuracy of this web page:frown: so can some varify this to being accurate?

limit limit Sales Price
1999 Gold One Ounce 33,000 8,000 7,956 $570.00
1999 Gold One-Half Ounce 32,000 7,000 6,956 $285.00
1999 Gold One-Quarter Ounce 36,000 11,000 10,946 $150.00

1999 Gold Four Coin Set N/A 25,000 23,471 $999.00

Thanks Burl, check out in your chart what he states the mintage on the 1999 1/10 ounce was versus what the mint says it sold...23,471+24,957= 48428 sold

Silverwood, are you thinking that if that 19K number is real, that this would be a good coin to be on the lookout for? Are you looking for the lowest mintage number to concentrate on?

By the way, there are many on ebay right now, at varying prices.

search "gold eagle 1999 $5"

Completed ones are interesting to see, also. They are selling at widely varying prices.

Some are from sellers with little feedback. But some are selling at a good price from established sellers.

Do you have a price cutoff or quality level? Graded or not?

Hmmm, I recently purchsed 2 1999 1/10 oz Eagles for just under $75 each.

Re: American Gold Eagle proof mintages
 

LG, I'm thinking that the 19k number is bogus cause the mint says it sold 48k. Anyway still low for the 1/10 oz coin. Actually I'm concentrating on 1/2 oz series which generally has some of the lowest mintages. Check out the proof 2001 and 2005 coins. :cool2:

Re: American Gold Eagle proof mintages
 

Satyr, the 1999 1/10 oz GAE has the largest mintage figure by far.
.......1.75 million unc + 48k proof = almost 1.8 million 1/10 GAEs with the 1999 date stamped on them.

whereas the 1988 1/10 had 159k unc minted
and the 1991 1/10 had 165.2k unc minted.

someone kick me, had a chance to buy a 4 coin proof set today @ 2245 and passed (let the price scare me). I get home and start thinking about it, a proof set for nearly an UNC price :thumb.aspx:. I know I missed a proof set for a good price but just could not part w/ that much frn. but it sure were pretty.

they don't make it easy... but it's there.

http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/...oof#salesTable

as you stated... but looking this is sales not mintage.

So add the 4coin set to its individual size.
