Quote: It is not even an ounce of silver at that. Right, they're 0.858 troy, or about 0.94 ounces.

 OK, firstly, I totally understand why folks are upset they missed out on ordering these coins today. In this age of super-fast this-and-that, NO website should ever crash. BUT, having said that, remember back when people used to get excited about going to a rock concert? People had to stand for what seemed like forever in line for tickets. Then people had to stay on the phone forever for tickets. Then online. Only to find the show was sold out.There were only so many tickets available for a venue, and today there were only so many coins available for sale. Obviously, there are more than 100K US coin collectors/speculators/dealers in the world. So there are/were not enough coins to satisfy demand. As far as the crashy website, be thankful you didn't have to mail in a check only to find out a month later the coins were sold out. ALSO, remember this is a GOVERNMENT website. Without getting too much into politics, since when has the US government ever done a website well? States aren't any better at it (at least not mine). So, in short, not enough coins to satisfy demand... government website... 'nuff said...

I think I messed up and entered the wrong security code in the crazy rush. I wonder if I can call and correct it. No email or anything, but oddly enough my card was charged $4.95. Anyone else have that happen?

Quote: "Order Status: Backorder" is expected? Yes. These won't ship until June, according to what we saw on the web site order page.

Wow sorry to hear about the bad experiences from some people. I was able to get my 3 orders of each in by 1216 EDT. I was surprised the site wasn't slow by noon, adding them to my cart was easy except I double clicked add for the CC so I initially had 6 CC and 3 O. I was able to change the 6 to 3 during check out. I knew putting in my credit card info would be the most difficult and they didn't disappoint in that regard. Took probably around 10 tries on 2 different tabs before one finally went through. Got my confirmation email about a half hour ago (4:50pm EDT) so I should be good. This was definitely less stressful than the 2019 ERP and the 2020 V75 ASEs, but more stressful than it should be :D.

Anyone want to guess if I got a coin?
I tried getting 2 CC's. I never got to the order confirmation page. I also did not get an email confirming my order. I did get a text message telling me that I was tracking an order. I also have a processing order ending 9409 in my order history at the mint. Finally at one point I got the timeout message but my cart was empty instead of still showing the coins in the cart.
I guess we will see what if anything I end up with.

Quote:Where is this June thing coming from? Quote: Product shipments will begin in October It came directly from the U.S. Mint order page at the time of order at noon Eastern today. I realize that October is what was has been advertised in the past but many of us saw the June availability date on both O and CC pages. Perhaps it was in error.

I decided I was not even going to wake up to try to buy one "I work 3rd shift"
After seeing what happened glad I didn't even bother to try
Only going to to try for Peace
Mint needs to set a limit to one item with every limited item into foreseeable future to offset the big dealers buying up everything

Yeah idk. My order was confirmed through email, but still shows processing on the website. The order only shows the $4.95 shipping charge and my card was only charged that. Under order history it shows 0 as item subtotal. Can anyone else let me know what your order history shows? Thanks!

I just got my order verification, but It doesn't say when it will be shipped. I too saw the June shipment date when I was ordering. 
ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!!

I saw the June ship date as well and I am curious as the booklet said the charges would appear at time of shipment and they have charged my card along with everyone else here it seems so it doesn't quite make sense.

I was able to get two cc and purchase them. Then I went in again added 2 of the O and it crashed. I tried again and added 2 O's and then my cart showed 4 O mint Mark coins. I just said, the heck with it! My luck if I try to delete 2 of the O's I may not get a chance again so I just went ahead and tried for all 4 of them and I got them! Wow! I have never been this lucky with the mint. So I'm definitely will be selling 2 of the 4 O mint Mark Morgan's.
