CCFPress Press Manager United States 1420 Posts	Posted 06/18/2015 1:49 pm US Mint - The United States Mint will accept orders for the 2015 First Spouse Series One-Half Ounce Gold Coins - Jacqueline Kennedy starting June 25 at noon Eastern Daylight Time (EDT). The obverse (heads side) design features a portrait of Mrs. Kennedy with the inscriptions "JACQUELINE KENNEDY," "IN GOD WE TRUST," "LIBERTY," "W," "2015," "35th," and "1961-1963." The reverse design features the species of saucer magnolia Mrs. Kennedy chose to be planted in a White House garden and near the eternal flame at her husband's grave in Arlington National Cemetery. The petals stretch across the globe, its tips connecting the points of some of her most notable diplomatic visits. Inscriptions on the reverse are "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "E PLURIBUS UNUM," "$10," "1/2 OZ.," and ".9999 FINE GOLD." The Jacqueline Kennedy First Spouse Gold Coins are being struck at the United States Mint at West Point in proof (product code JQ5) and uncirculated (product code JQ6) qualities. Mintage will be limited to no more than 30,000 units across all product options, with customer demand determining the ratio of proof coins to uncirculated coins produced. Pricing for these coins will be based on the United States Mint pricing structure for numismatic products containing gold, available at http://catalog.usmint.gov/coins/gold-coins Report this Post to the Staff

jack jeckel Pillar of the Community United States 5208 Posts	Posted 06/18/2015 2:22 pm I wonder if this coin might actually sell due to all of the Kennedy fans compared the 4,000 combined proof /unc of all of the previous issues. Report this Post to the Staff

SA4H Pillar of the Community United States 2764 Posts	Posted 06/25/2015 7:07 pm I really like the reverse design - very nice and simple yet elegant. May be I can get someone to trade with my Marry Todd Lincoln FS set for this.... MTL FS was released at around the same price. Report this Post to the Staff

jack jeckel Pillar of the Community United States 5208 Posts	Posted 06/25/2015 11:14 pm They are both listed as "Backordered" now. Only the proof was "Backordered" earlier in the day. I'm not sure how many the mint struck for the initial release but it seems to have been popular enough for them to exhaust the current supply the first day of issue. Report this Post to the Staff
Bizybackson Pillar of the Community United States 1817 Posts	Posted 06/26/2015 4:16 pm First day sales are 10,894. Easily the best opening for the FS series in the last five years. Presumably all of proof initial mintage went to bulk sales to the dealers as the proof was immediately listed as backordered as of 12 Noon yesterday followed shortly by the uncirculated coin. Backorder for both coins says Sept. 1st. Edited by Bizybackson 06/26/2015 9:47 pm Report this Post to the Staff
