Here's an excerpt from the February 2018 Coin World, page 14. Interesting analysis of erroneous facts. Is Coin World confused or what? Sales of the 2018 Congratulations set, a Proof 2018-S American Eagle silver dollar in a special gift-focused folder, total 9,015. This product has edition limit or ordering limit, factors that keep the product from being something a speculator would buy to flip for a quick profit. Contrast the current approach with that for sales of the 2017 Congratulations set, which sold out its 75,000-set edition in two minutes on April 4; that product featured a Proof 2017-S American Eagle silver dollar. This year, as in the last, the San Francisco Mint version of the Proof American Eagle silver dollar will be offered in a second product, which this year will limit the quick-profit possibilities found by buyers of the 2017 Congratulations set.
Sounds to me like they're confused. From the Mint website: Great gift for any occasion—wedding, anniversary, retirement, graduation, or birthday Includes the 2018 American Eagle One Ounce Silver Proof Coin bearing the “W” mint mark of the West Point Mint Accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity Item Number: 18RF Mintage Limit: None Product Limit: None Household Order Limit: None
Yeah, I checked eBay too and the sets have a W Eagle, so not a mint screw up, like the 2014 Coin & Currency Set.
