Household Order Limits Placed on Baseball Coin

Note: these coins are going on sale tomorrow, Thursday the 27th.

WASHINGTON-New feedback that indicates extremely strong demand for the 2014 National Baseball Hall of Fame Commemorative Coins, and a commitment to satisfy all customers, has prompted the United States Mint to impose new household ordering limits. The coins go on sale at noon Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) March 27.

The household order limits are:

Proof and Uncirculated $5 Gold Coins - 50 coins each
Proof and Uncirculated Silver Dollars - 100 coins each
Proof and Uncirculated Clad Half-Dollars - 100 coins each

Never seen anything like this. I wonder how long it will take to sell out.

The coins are already being marked up on ebay, one gold coin is selling for $333 above retail cost, the site owner claims he had already sold 2.

Another guy is trying to sell the gold coin for $2000.
