US Silver Coin Sales Stats – Apr 30

Braille Bicentennial Silver Dollar sales skyrocketed and interest in other silver coins remained relatively strong, the latest United States Mint sales statistics reveal.

Compared to the last reported Mint figures, Braille Silver Dollar sales surged higher than even the prior impressive jump, rising 38.1 percent for the proof coin and a cumulative 28.0 percent for the uncirculated options.

Interest in the coins appeared to be waning, until the latest two Mint readouts showed reversals. 125,002 Braille dollars have now been sold, with 31,836 new sales added over last time.

2009 DC & US Territories Silver Proof Set sales improved by 9,722, or 9.7 percent. A total of 110, 411 have now been purchased by collectors.

As a reminder, Lincoln Silver Dollar figures remain unchanged for the fourth straight week. The maximum amount of individual coins have sold out, leaving 50,000 proof coins reserved for the special 5-coin set coming later this year.

Here are the latest numbers:
