Message:: [QUOTE="gsalexan, post: 4496044, member: 24274"]Just giving everyone a heads-up on the BEP's Intaglio Prints for 2020. I recently spoke with the BEP marketing manager who was working from home. He said a lot of work at the Bureau was being done through teleconferences, although the presses were still rolling. Providing the nation with a stable money supply is, of course, the BEP’s top priority, and consequently there is no firm timetable for the 2020 Intaglio Print Program. Travel remains restricted, so the BEP and the Mint will not be attending the summer FUN show and the August ANA show in Pittsburgh also looks unlikely, but they are waiting to see when and how Pennsylvania lifts its quarantine. The 2020 intaglio print theme is still the 75th anniversary of WWII, with three cards forming a triptych design. He also mentioned that the Mayflower design used for the spider press card at January’s FUN show will probably be reused as part of a currency set. The planned Women’s Suffrage card sounds like a question mark. As production gets pushed further into the year the BEP may not have the resources to do everything. For the time being all new collector products are on hold. Here's the only card issued this year, so far -- only 50 were printed and sold by raffle at the FUN show in January.
