See thats where I also see the issue, that's why all mine are mostly bullion version. My goal is to have one of each coin in etheir bullion or P.

I think it all depends. If things in our country go bad,all will be seen as bullion. If things go well, either can happen. Just look what the Hawaii coin did and I think is still doing. Bids way above silver value. I kind of tried to do both! I only bought when costing lesser amounts and do have the P versions. I feel these will fair better if valued as a collector item. Just my thoughts of course.

Sorry angel - I haven't set up email notifications - no help.
I got my White Mountain P today - very nice. Then I just got an email letting me know my bullion version is shipping as well! I wasn't as much a fan of this design as some of the others later this year - but the lake really does have a striking affect.
I don't know either way what these will do in the future. I suspect both will be some type of collectors items - since there isn't a huge disparity in mintage totals, and each has a visual that is unique to them.

White Mountain has a June 12 shipping date now. I wonder if maybe selling out? I tried to find the sold to as of now but cannot find it on the US mint site.

I'd be very surprised if they sold out in under two weeks, the first week's opening numbers of 10,605 wouldn't justify the entire mintage of 25K being sold out in about 10 days. They probably have run out of vapor blasted coins in the inventory, perhaps the initial order was for 12,000 thinking that would be good for six weeks of sales (based on the 2012 issues sales), not for 10 days only.

I wouldn't think so either but who knows. They may not make the entire allotment as they did with HI and AK. Hopefully I will still be able to get one!

I agree with Bizy, if anything they sold out the first run and have to get some more done or put the finishing touches on them before sending them out

Hope you're right since I'm waiting until the 6th at least so I can order 2 together. Just a lot of shipping costs for no reason when they are coming out so close together.

Just got a text from APMEX, June 14th ship date for Perry's Victory 5 oz. bullion. Probably means the first day of sales to the APs is June 3rd. By this schedule would mean Great Basin (#18) bullion coins would start sales June 24th for customer delivery on July 5th. Good times!

White Mountain-P added 2,016 for a cumulative total of 12,621, none of the five 2012 coins sold that many by the second week of sales. Interesting that collectors are jumping on this issue, when it will probably easily surpass the mintage of all of the 2012-Ps and be the common coin of the series for 2013. At this rate, it has a good chance of maxing out its mintage by the end of the year.
The Mint probably finished half the mintage or 12,500 coins, because Volcanoes took 8 weeks to sell this many, whereas the highly disliked Chaco Culture took a whopping 21 weeks to get there. 2012 was definitely the sleeper year for the 5oz Ps.

I think a lot has to do with the much lower price. Chaco culture sold out quickly once the price lowered
