    Goes on sale at 12 PM eastern time today. Anybody in on this one? I like the medals included in the sets.

    Looks like I'm suckered into this series just like with the 'Legacy Sets'.

    Green, I got the Teddy one because of the medal and Teddy was an amazing man. I haven't even looked at this one yet...But I'm inclined to believe I'll pass. The medal could be cool but they didn't have any good pictures of it that I could find on the Mint's website.

    Here's the medal design. Just imagine it in silver instead of bronze.

    I got one because the medals in the set so intrigued me. I like the fact that one of them is almost pure silver.

    I totally succumbed to the oressures of the forums and the low mintage figures and bought one of these.

    Well, that's only partially true since at the minimum I'll have a .999 fine silver presidential medal which I think is kinda "Kewl"!

    I like the reverse of the bronze medal that d.t. menace posted but still not sure. If I do get it I was thinking that I would wait until the 2015 proof SE goes on sale so I can order both and save on shipping. But with only 20,000 mintage do you think the set will sell out before then?

    Never can tell. Gut feeling tells me you're safe in putting off the purchase, but one never truly knows.

    Hot Dang! Mine has shipped!

    Don't think I'll wait. Seems like people are ordering multiple sets. At least from what I've read, in the comments section, of CoinNews.net Plus I have a couple of US Mint gift certificates I got for Xmas :)
