The Gold Center, Inc., Springfield, Illinois offered the 5 oz American
the Beautiful set to the general public this AM.
the Beautiful set to the general public this AM.
$975 cash only for the set, one set per customer.
At 8:30 AM there was an orderly line of 125+ persons on the north side
of the building. This against an opening hour of 10 AM. The local
sheriff's department had two squad cars and several deputies on site
for crowd and vehicle and parking lot control, but there were no
particular problems.
By 12:30 PM the line was down to five to ten persons, and by 1:15 PM
the crowd was gone, the shop was handling two or three persons at a
time.
I do not know how many sets were initially available, but they weren't
all sold at 1:15 PM.
The Gold Center has been a leading primary dealer in American Silver
Eagles for many years.
