Sales were modest for 2009 Lincoln products this time around. To clarify, there were no big spikes, like last week.
The 2009 US Mint Proof Set climbed another 21,826 compared to last week's 21,189. The redesigned pennies in the set were believed to make this year's set more popular than previous years. Right now, over 1.2 million 2009 Mint Proof Sets have sold. In 2008, more than 1.4 million sold, and in 2007, over 1.7 million sold.
Soon, the focus will shift to the fourth and final redesigned penny. The Lincoln Presidency Cent is scheduled to launch on Thursday, November 12, in Washington,D.C.
