For Those Who Just Ordered the UHR 2009 Saint-Gaudens ...

[RareSov]

Someone on PCGS forum says they have coin in hand.. maybe yanking our chains ?

 

Another says they have been billed.. shipments could be starting !

 

An earlier post says the mint staff said first shipment is to be 31 March ! we'll know the truth soon I guess...

[josephan]

My credit card just got billed. Ordered at 12:30 on first day. Looks like they are on the way!

[robec1347]

Mine has been billed. (thumbs u

[RareSov]

Nice, although they do just bill to ensure the funds are available sometimes ? (happened to me when waiting for platinum eagle set)

 

Feb 18 will do me.. Bring it on US Mint

[robec1347]

First images are up ATS by a member just having received his. His ordered wasn't taken until 1:00, an hour after the sale started. They're obviously not sending them out in the same order as the sales were placed.

[RareSov]

Nope, someone posted something about that too. Pretty disappointing

 

I see a guy who ordered 12:30 well I'm before him by a few orders so I'm going to watch for his posts, and when mine ships ! must be time to check my order status

 

The box looks nice..

Should we send the gem directly to NGC? I can't wait to see it!

Mine's going directly there...

[jtryka]

I just checked my status, and my coin says in stock and reserved, but the book is backordered until 2/20!

[RareSov]

Absolutely going to NGC the moment I lay my hands on it. That label is sah-weeeeet ! Early Release please US Mint, cmon ship my coin !

+1

 

If I can get the coin in hand before the deadline expires, I'll take it out of the box and inspect for a good long while in just the capsule.

 

If I don't get it in time, it's going straight to NGC in the box!

[Old Pueblo]

I'm convinced now to submit the coin

My last email indicted a 2-20 ship date

Not sure I've ever been anxious about a coin until now

After all the UHR's are delivered, what is everyone going to do with all the free time they'll have by not having to check your order status?

I hadn't thought of that Bob.

[RareSov]

God knows. I'll have so much time I'll do that much extra work I buy more of them

 

[Schatzy]

So far 45,420 coins have been ordered!! 2/12/09

[RareSov]

Nice to know ! definitely faring well for future profits. I thought 100,000 would be sold by now

 

Can you order a 2nd one yet ?

I just noticed the Mint site took care of this little problem. They simply disabled the Track Order function.

[jtryka]

I got an e-mail!!!! Delivery scheduled tomorrow morning!!!

[astrostu]

I agree with the above two posters. I ordered well within the first hour ... haven't heard a thing!

[punekari-migration]

What is the best way to send it to NGC? On their website they say to send it in the mint capsule. Any thoughts?

[Schatzy]

Yes.....just leave the coin in the mint capsule, this will ensure the coin stays more protected. Make sure you add lots of padding around the coin. I would also ship the coin in a box and not a bubble mailer!!

[fishfinder]

Lets see, I ordered within the first 30 min of start 200 orders past jtryka and it doesn't look like my coin will make delivery in time for the Early Release cutoff 3/9. Is NGC taking the delay into consideration? There could be very few ER labels.

Do you really need the ER label.....I don't think it will increase the value!!

[rrantique]

I think this will go down as the "Greatest Mint Fiasco in History"
