And option C has not been released yet..... so really there are only 21,857 minted to date. Right?

it look like the mintage (if sell out) will be 275,000 for proof and 125,000 for unc. the lincoln is 375,000 for proof and 125,000 for unc.

Well it took what, 2.5 months for the Lincoln to sell out? I wonder if it will take more than 2.5 months to sell the Braille out. Though I'm sure most everyone is wondering if the buying frenzy from the Lincoln and the Braille is just due to the absenteeism of the 2009 ASE proof.

But in the end I think the Lincoln will gain so much popularity, it will dwarf the Brailles. Coming out with new Lincoln pennies this year certainly can't be helping the Braille supporters either. My vote goes for the Lincoln, because 100,000 extra coins just doesn't seem like that much more to me.

And to answer the original question, no I will not be getting the Braille, that money is being saved for something special this year.

Edit: put 3--->2.5 on months to sell out.
