The latest round of US Mint sales figures for products with 2009 Lincoln Cents is 180 degrees opposite of last week's report. All but one product performed better than the prior week.
The Lincoln Proof Set jumped by 7,489, compared to last week's 5,210. It could be holiday gift purchases, or it could be the end of the special commemorative pennies. The Presidency and Professional Two-Roll Sets picked up steam too, climbing 10,928 and 3,331 respectively over the prior 9,268 and 2,803.
The only exception to gains was last week's star. The US Mint's Uncirculated Set, which vaulted 28,613 last week, rose 21,287 this week. That is not a bad number, since it's still higher than mid-November reports.
Since the end of the year is approaching and there are no more 2009 Lincoln Penny products that will be released, future coin sales reports will be updated monthly instead of weekly.
The following table includes the latest sales for sets and products that include the 2009 pennies:
