USN's 'Ultimate Shopping Network' Records Largest Daily Coin Sales Ever With First Strike, 24 Karat American Buffalo Gold Coins

Over $100,000 in Revenue Achieved in Just Three Hours on Sales of Over One Hundred Coins at $999 Each; Upcoming Show on Sunday, August 6 Offers Viewers Another Chance to Buy This Year's Most Collectible Coin

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 4 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- USN Corporation (BULLETIN BOARD: USNR) ("USN"), owner of the "Ultimate Shopping Network," announced today its largest daily coin sales ever with a show dedicated to the U.S. Mint's 24 Karat American Buffalo Gold coins. Selling over one hundred of the first strike, mint-state (MS) 70 American Buffalos in just three hours, USN garnered over $100,000 in sales while offering viewers one of the industry's lowest prices for the coins at just $999.

Based upon James Earle Fraser's design of the Buffalo Nickel issued between 1913 and 1938, the American Buffalos are the first 24K coins ever produced by the U.S. Mint and have been made in an extremely limited run of 300,000 total coins. USN will be hosting its next American Buffalo Gold coin show on Sunday, August 6, allowing viewers another opportunity to purchase this year's most collectible coin.

"Our success in selling over one hundred American Buffalos in just three hours is a testament to our broad reach to an audience of affluent customers," said Mark J. Miller, CEO of USN. "And at $999, we are selling these highly collectible coins for far less than most other outlets, which have the same first strike, MS 70 American Buffalos retailing anywhere from $1,099 to $1,199."

In addition to the first strike, MS-70 American Buffalos, USN has a variety of other American Buffalo Gold coins from first strike, MS-69s to the ultra-rare proof issue, first strike, PCGS-PR70DCAM, selling for $5,995. "Proof" coins are the rarest of the rare, made with special dies and struck multiple times to accent the design.

Reaching over 30 million aggregated U.S. households, USN sells upscale consumer products direct to the customer at value prices on DIRECTV Channel 345, Dish Network channel 223, and various cable and broadcast outlets. The Ultimate Shopping Network's 24/7 programming offers television's most luxurious shopping experience and the network is a rapidly growing player in the multi-billion dollar television commerce industry.
