Sales of gold and silver American Eagle bullion coins shifted down significantly during the last several days, according to the very latest sales figures released Monday by the United States Mint.
At least part of the pullback is likely the result of precious metal declines throughout most of last week. (London gold lost 1.1 percent while silver dropped 2.6 percent.)
Platinum Eagle and American Buffalo bullion sales for 2009 are still at zero.
Here is a table containing the most recent sales figures:
