The U.S. Mint’s weekly sales report is out, giving us a look at opening week sales for the first big release of the new year: the 2016 Mark Twain Commemorative Gold Proof and Uncirculated Coins.
The Proof Mark Twain gold coin sold 5,993 pieces since its launch last Thursday, while the Uncirculated issue sold 2,990. The Mark Twain gold Proof posted better first week sales than its U.S. Marshals counterpart from last year, but the Twain gold Uncirculated fell short of the Marshals Uncirculated’s first week sales of 4,556. These numbers become more stark when considering that the Marshals Proof and Uncirculated coins sold an additional 9,901 units each that first week through purchases of the simultaneously released U.S. Marshals 3-Coin Proof Set.
A couple of factors may have contributed to a quieter launch for the Twain gold commemoratives. The delay of the Twain silver issues likely dampened some enthusiasm the day of the release, as fewer collectors converged upon the Mint’s sales channels to pick up their commemorative of choice. The Twain gold Proof coin has also seen some supply issues, having been listed as “Unavailable” or “Back Order” at various points since its debut. It will be interesting to see how the silver Twain coins fare at the time of their release.
Also of note is the fact that the 2016 America the Beautiful Quarters Proof Set did not appear on this week’s sales report. The set briefly went on sale beginning January 11 and has since been made unavailable, with its release date now listed as “To Be Determined.” Some sets were bought and shipped to early-bird collectors, but we still don’t know how many.
It was was a relatively slow sales week for the Mint overall. The Twain Proof and Uncirculated gold coins were the number 1 and number 2 sellers, respectively, with the third place item being the 2015 U.S. Mint Proof Set at 1,927 sales. Fourth place went to the 2015 U.S. Mint Silver Proof set, which sold 1,826, while the fifth-bestselling item was the 2015 U.S. Mint Uncirculated Set, with 1,515 units purchased.
Several products were declared sold out at the Mint last week; final sales totals for those items are available here. Mintage limits for the products on the following report can be viewed on the Coin Update Mintage Limit Chart.

Gentlemen,
Have you gotten any answer from the US Mint as to why the 2016 ATB Quarter Proof sets have been moved to “TBD”? I have already received my 4 sets from my enrollment order shipped 01/11/16.
Also why were the sales numbers from the US Mint for this item were left off the sales number report as of 01/17/16
@ Old Big Bird – The Mint said today that the 2016 ATB Proof Sets had an error on the packaging (wrong picture of Cumberland Gap). I posted about it on Mint News Blog. Still don’t know why they left it off of the sales report. – Dan
Could it be that the Mint will ask for the Sets to be returned? Thank you in advance for all your cooperation in this sensitive matter.
The zero (0) orders has been finalized in the national register. We must have all errors returned.
