Not looking for actual numbers as that is none of our business. Percentages would not hurt.
I heard it was 1 out of 5 got a coin successfully.
(now don't ask me where because i don't remember:)

Late Friday afternoon, the U.S. Mint released the following statements to CoinNews:

"Yesterday, the Mint catalog website had more than 150,000 unique visitors and 1.6 million page views in the first hour of sales of the American Eagle 2019 One Ounce Silver Enhanced Reverse Proof Coin (19XE). For context, the catalog website’s previous highest traffic and page views were for the Apollo 11 product launch, when we had 124,000 visitors in one day and 863,000 page views in one hour. We are pleased with the numismatic community’s response to this product. The volume of traffic did briefly slow down our site response. However, after the first two minutes we were able to process over 1800 orders per minute on average. Completed orders were processed until all inventory was sold. Additionally, we identified approximately 5% of traffic as coming from bots, including 3% of traffic from a single IP address, of which zero orders were processed."

"At the moment of launch, there were 99,000 people online and 4700 callers waiting to purchase the American Eagle 2019 One Ounce Silver Enhanced Reverse Proof Coin (19XE). Completed orders were processed until all inventory was sold. We are constantly seeking feedback from our customers, and rest assured your voice is being heard."

They claim there were “4700 callers waiting to buy”- if their lines can handle 4700 people waiting at once, their website should’ve handled 150k.

Off topic- (really deserves its own thread).
If this coin deal frenzy wetted anyone’s
appetite for actual coin collecting, I highly recommend you look into collecting ancient Jewish coins. (Yes, from EY 2000 years ago, Beis HaMikdash era).

For a few dollars you can literally hold a treasured piece of Jewish history minted by our ancestors in your hands. (Versus a random piece of American silver stamped by a machine in 2019.)

There is quite the variety to collect- in terms of material (bronze, silver, Roman gold) and price (from $2 to 200k or more).

You can buy from dealers, coin auctions and even ebay (be wary of many fakes on eBay)

Anyone is welcome to respond or pm for more details or help. (No, I am not a dealer).

There’s no one rule, like many things it’s a matter of knowledge and experience. But after a short while you can spot a fake a mile away.

That’s why I don’t recommend starting with eBay. Vcoins.com is a good way to start, it’s a platform exclusively for vetted and approved coin dealers.

There are millions of coins there not just Jewish. (Greek, Roman, Byzantine to name a few). Search for Judaea in the ancient coin section to filter out Judaean.

Or start by reading these books.

Guide to Biblical Coins https://www.amazon.com/dp/0965402959/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_2rk1DbTJG5MZR


Not Kosher: Forgeries of Ancient Jewish and Biblical Coins https://www.amazon.com/dp/0965402932/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_Fsk1DbCH7F4VH

(You should be able to find them cheaper somewhere)

Coins now going for $950-$1000

This has to be a historical record percentage wise.

I have 8 coins to be shipped with budget shipping. Got confirmation emails on all of them with tracking numbers (it comes from MS) between Friday and Sunday. Only 2 are moving, one started moving today and one shipped Friday. Anybody else in the same boat?
