So the mint has released the final details including price $54.95, household limit 10X and mintage 200K. Mint's press release here Seems like the only thing they got wrong here is the 10x household limit as that with a 200K mintage will probably ensure a pretty quick sell out.
Whenever they limit their products like that, the flippers will be heavy and hardly any regular collector will get any sets. Seen it too many times. Ain't even worth the hassle to me.
FYI From Coin World https://www.coinworld.com/news/us-c...estricts-reverse-proof-set-to-200000.all.html
I would rather see them set a limit at 100000 or less. Maybe 2-5 per household. I will buy one if I can. I always get the silver proof sets every year. No idea why - just tradition. Been doing it for years and it's not much money, so WTH? So this year, I guess I will get two: One Regular, and one Reverse.
200,000 is by no means 'rare'. Everyone who lusts after one will most likely get one.......unless MCM corners them all.
Bought one this afternoon with zero drama. I suspect there will be plenty available for a long time. Sorry, flippers.
I got one with absolutely no problem. Going to be most interested in how the reverse proofs turned out. Mine are going to stay in the original packaging.
