Mint Statistics: Look closely at Innovation $1 sales

What sort of yardstick should we use to measure the success of the new American Innovation $1 coin? If we look at sales of 100-coin bags, the new dollar has begun with a bang. The combined Philadelphia-Denver total nearly equals the 2018 Native American dollar 100-coin bag total.

This near equality was achieved in just a few days. But before we dream of high demand and rapid sales, if you look at the 25-coin roll sales, the comparison goes very much against the Innovation dollar, 8,965 to 29,988 for the Native American dollar. Let’s see how things shake out in the coming weeks.

The American Innovation $1 proof set, which is just one S-mint coin, has a sales total of 73,398. That’s not a bad start, but it also doesn’t set collector hearts aflutter.

The Mint has chosen not to sell the 250-coin boxes of the new dollar coin. That could set us up for surprise rarity for the design a year or two from now.

Traditional craft of India: Handicrafts on Stamps Part II

Despite rapid social and technological changes in India, the use of craft products is an integral aspect of an Indian’s social life.  Handicraft aims at processing materials by hand with hand tools. The result of this can be a useful thing or a decorative item. The tradition of making handicrafts is deeply frozen in the social norms of Indian society. In any of the handmade products, a crafter transfers an aspect of their cultural heritage to the ideas, forms, material and manufacturing process of the craft. They’re skilled employees whose profession relies on manual skills. Their main tools are the power of work strategies. Handicraft contains plenty of implicit data that grows every year, along with skills. The order and apprentice system has been widely used to transfer skills and implicit data.
