I bet you get yours first Ken. They seem to take a while to get them deep in the heart of Texas. I will advise when mine arrive.
I ordered one set on Friday along with a few other items from the mint. The order is processing with all the items in stock and reserved. I'll let you know when I get them in central NY.
Popped one open and the set does look good. I typically get three sets. One I use for albums, one goes in the mint set/proof set collection and one remains sealed. When I bust out the album coins I'll try to get some photos up. Have to say the, the edge lettering on the presidentials and saky looks really good. The mint has really improved in that regard.
Last year I bought both sets and this year I think I'll pass! It will be interesting to see how many new ppl are gonna buy tho!
yeah they are not cheap this year as in previous past. Even still I ordered 2 of each (and will order 2 when the silver proof comes out) because this is the year that my son is/was born so i it's very special to me. I received confirmation 2 days before the mint set went out on sale, wasnt shipped until the 20th and wont arrive until the 26th
****Not to change Subject**** Has anyone got there set in hand yet? I was wondering if there Satin Finished? I have 5 set/subscription somewhere in the US Mint shipped 7/20 USPS system.ld-guy-smile:2009 was to be the end of Satin Finished mint sets so I was just wondering if that true??
