<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bluedog, post: 51073, member: 3067&quot;]The Mint sells each state quarter Two-Roll Set for 10 weeks. The Minnesota set sold out in 4 weeks (32 days). That unusually early sellout (they typically go the full ten weeks) is why the price jumped on sites that sells the sets, as well as on ebay.</p><p><br /></p><p>Currently, I don&#039;t think anyone knows why the sellout occurred. Did the Mint sell its usual mintage (70,000 - 100,000 sets... I think) in a shorter time? Or did they mint far fewer sets? Or were they not able to put together as many sets because resources are being diverted to the bison logjam?</p><p><br /></p><p>I think people immediately started buying sets in the aftermarket, hoping that the final story will unfold in their favor.</p><p><br /></p><p>Within days of the sell out (on May 6th) prices went from 39.95 to 74.95 and 64.95 on a few coin dealer sites that I&#039;m aware of. On ebay, the prices seem to be going in the high 40 dollar range.</p><p><br /></p><p>If anyone has the mintage figures for the Minnesota two-roll set, please post them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
