The United States Mint has updated its daily bullion sales report for American Eagle and American Buffalo bullion coins. This summary report provides sales details through Sunday, May 1, 2022. The bullion sales report reflects bullion coins that the Mint sold to Authorized Purchasers for the previous week and is different than the weekly numismatic product report. During the previous week, the Mint reported sales of a small 46,500 bullion coins. This is down ten fold from the bullion sales report for last week. According to the Mint’s report, sales reported occurred across just three of the seven products offered by the Mint to Authorized Purchasers.
Rarely in the bullion sales report is the silver one-ounce American Eagle not the top seller but that was the case last week. The gold one-ounce American Eagle took the top sales honors with 19,500 coins sold to Authorized Purchases. It was followed closely behind by the silver Eagle with 17,000 coins sold. These were the only two American Eagle products that had reported sales last week. None of the fractional gold Eagles nor the platinum one-ounce Eagle had sales. Meanwhile, the only other coin to register sales was the one-ounce American Buffalo gold coin with 10,000 coins sold.
Here is this weeks brief breakdown of bullion sales for the Mint.
