The United States Mint has released its weekly sales report for the seven day period ending Sunday, November 22, 2020. This week’s top ten selling products list was dominated by a slew of new products the Mint launched last week. Indeed, no less than 13 new products were released and seven of those were in the top ten selling products list.
The top selling item for the week ending November 22 was the Mayflower 400th Anniversary Silver Reverse Proof Medal. The report shows that 16,728 of the medals were sold, which had a production limit of 20,000. According to the Mint’s site at the time of this posting, the medal shows as unavailable, suggesting that in fact all 20,000 have been sold and the Mint is in the process or reconciling sales.
The 2020 Proof Set had a strong sales week, settling in as the second best selling product for the Mint last week. 16,613 sets were sold putting it just behind the Mayflower Silver Medal for the week. For the year, 436,594 sets have been sold, continuing the strong showing of annual sets for 2020.
The third top seller was the 400th Anniversary of the Mayflower Voyage Silver Proof Coin and Medal Set, also introduced last week. Officially the Mint shows 8,727 of the 9,200 sets were sold. However, like the silver medal, it shows as being unavailable on the Mint’s site. This indicates that all of the sets were likely sold and the Mint is confirming orders.
Another new product that made it into the top ten was the American Eagle 2020 One Ounce Gold Uncirculated Coin. The report indicates that 6,996 of the 7,000 coins available have been sold. This coin, like the Mayflower anniversary products and the privy marked American Eagles, was a source of frustration for customers as many experienced slow downs and failure on the Mint’s site when the coin went on sale.
Rounding out the top five selling items was another new product: The Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve ATB Quarter 3-Roll Set (P,D,S). 6,698 of these sets were sold last week, making it the top selling product for the latest America the Beautiful quarter.
