US Mint Coin Sales YTD: Gold Weak and Silver Strong

Sales of gold Eagle and Buffalo coins by the US Mint are off to a very slow start in 2014.  Year to date sales are down 46% from 2013.  Gold coin sales have not been this slow to start a year since 2008.  Is demand weak or supply constrained?  Sales are off to a strong start in April.  Only 4 days in, April sales are already more than half of March sales.



























Silver on the other hand is off to a very strong year.  Year to date sales are only 2% less than 2013, which was a record year.  2014 sales were off to a slow start in January because 2014 silver Eagles were released in smaller allotments over a longer time than in previous years.

  3. Gold held a retreat from a three-month high as investors assessed the timing of U.S. interest-rate increases. Palladium declined from the highest price since 2001 to snap the longest rally in 10 months.
