There are no new products to add to the charts this week, but that doesn’t mean Mint product sales have been quiet.

Whether it’s an interest in the sport of basketball or an appreciation for the curved coin design, the 2020 Basketball Hall of Fame coins have been popular with buyers during the first full week of product availability.

The proof curved silver dollar increased by an impressive 5,801 for a total of 50,016 this week. That places it in third place overall for Mint products sold for the week.

The silver proof was followed by the proof clad half dollar, which now totals 20,168. In the number five spot for overall increase in sales was the uncirculated version of the curved silver dollar. In total, 15,956 have gone out the door.

It’s no surprise that the top two most popular products are once again proof sets. Same as last week, top honors go to the 2020 Clad Proof Set. Its 8,195 increase over the week prior puts total sales just over 280,000. The 2020 Silver Proof Set isn’t far behind with a weekly jump of 7,343, bringing its overall total to 214,223.
