Keep refreshing your inbox...you'll probably get more --

I'm going to say the "coin game" is over. Congratz Mr Pickles and everyone who got on board when it started.

Any other ideas for similar jobs? - Anyone know where I can buy Traveler's Cheques at cost on my CC?

You can buy them at an AMEX travel office with your AMEX CC.

I wonder why!

Perhaps 12 pending orders has something to do with it?

Looks like a time-out is warranted. Postings are getting snippy and off topic, plus it appears that the Mint is not currently shipping.

If anyone has something that evidences that shipments have resumed or has some really urgent background information, please contact a moderator right-away, and the thread will be opened up. In the interim, some postings in the last couple of days may get edited for the usual reasons which moderators have spelled out many times.

Well that did not take long. One of the thread regulars has supplied proof that shipping is ongoing.

STAY ON TOPIC, please.

The 2 boxes of van Burens I placed 12/23 to go to my niece and nephew has a status of "shipped". The 2 boxes of Jacksons I ordered on 12/3, that was backordered, also has a status of "shipped".

With or without a surcharge, the time to buy gold/silver is when no one else is, not at the market high or when some talk radio shill tells you to.

Moderator, just close this thread every other day. The less attention this receives the more coins I'll get in the long run.

We're due for a 24-72 hour lockout. Go ahead shut it down. We all know when our coins will ship.
