2015-P Kisatchie Five Ounce Silver Uncirculated Coin Sales Debut

Making its debut in the Mint’s sales stats this week is the collectible 2015-P Kisatchie National Forest Five Ounce Silver Uncirculated Coin. After launching on Tuesday, April 28, its sales reached 15,622 in six days. It is the second in the America the Beautiful series, and compared to the Homestead silver coin, demand for the Kisatchie coin fell short in the early going. In March, beginning sales for the Homestead coin clocked in at 16,216 after just four days.

In related sales, the Kisatchie five ounce silver bullion coin sold out at 42,000. We’ll talk more about this in a later article.
