Quote: Tons of silver medals left (16K+), gold just 975 remaining after 25 minutes. Silver started at 60,000 versus 12,000 gold. Still, ~27% remaining silver is a chunk more than the ~8% remaining gold.

Oddly enough the gold is still in stock right now.

"It's like my father used to say, It's always something." Emily Litela As detailed above, I got in at 10:02 and tried to place my order. When I got to the make payment area I got a message that payment couldn't be made and to try again. Tried again to no avail, but kept getting message that my household limit had been reached (Huh? Maybe the order did go through. Checked my email...nothing. Checked my bank account which showed payment made, but then taken back. Called the USMint and got through quicker than I thought I would. A VERY polite lady apologized, but told me I would be unable to place my order again for 24 hours. Asked if there was anything else she could help me with. Told her my car needed washing. Obligatory laugh. Ignored her advice and tried to place order again even though the 24 hour period hadn't transpired. Order went through. to confirmation number. Guess I was lucky. In a way. I wonder if maybe the problem wasn't at my bank's end. My bank actually showed payment made, then retracted back at the initial order. Oh well, bring on Batman.

Glad you finally got it processed!  Quote: Oh well, bring on Batman. I am considering the one ounce silver here, too.

Got an email advising that my Sunflower is in the mail (UPS actually). Hopefully they don't just jam it in my mailbox this time like they did with Sacagawea.

Well that was fast. At 11 a.m., the UPS guy delivered my gold sunflower at my front door (not in the mailbox). I must admit when I first saw the drawings of this coin I thought, "meh," but seeing it in hand it's really very beautiful. I have to say that even knowing where it is I'm hard pressed to see the bee that I know is there. Might have something to do with the fact that I'm 74 and my new glasses are due to be delivered after Labor Day. Sorry, but don't ask me to post pictures. Don't know how to do it, and too lazy to figure how.
