The sales figures do not suprise me because of the popularity of baseball in the US and the novelty of it is the US Mint's first curved coin.
If I still lived in the US, I probably would have purchased one of the non-gold coins but since living outside of the US, I have discovered more interesting coins from other countries.
I know I might regret not getting at least the half dollar coin in future. I have given my main US coin source a chance to change my mine but so far he has not responded.

My proof and uncirculated gold coins arrived today as well as the silver proof. The clad proof arrived some time ago. I'm still waiting for the silver uncirculated and the clad uncirculated.
