Is the US Mint going to quit making the satin finish coins that have been in the mint sets since 2005?
I have heard this rumor also, but do not have proof it is true. I personally hope it is true. I do not like the satin finish coins in the set; they should be regular business strikes. If collectors want special strikes, that's what proofs are for.
Sadly, only no one around here can answer that honestly. Only the mint knows. Why don't you call them and ask them: 1-800-USA-MINT (872-6468) I hope the satin continues. I love the finish.
