That the Jefferson First Spouse gold coins sold out the first day they were offered Aug. 30 probably is no surprise to most collectors.

The limited mintages of 20,000 for proof and 20,000 for the uncirculated versions have attracted many an eBay buyer. However, the nearly as brief length of time to achieve a sellout when compared to the June 19 offer of Martha Washington and Abigail Adams coins might be a surprise in light of the great lengths the Mint took to assure the fairest and widest possible distribution.
