<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Vess1, post: 705293, member: 13650&quot;]Just so everyone&#039;s clear, the mint has already sold 450,000 total of the Lincoln silver dollars.&nbsp; That&#039;s PFs and MS&#039;s combined.&nbsp; &nbsp; They held back these 50,000 proofs for these special sets.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; <b>The more I look at it, the more it seems like a marketing gimmick.&nbsp; I agree with others that there will probably be a lot of people going nuts over the mint packaging.&nbsp;&nbsp; This is ALL about the packaging.&nbsp; Has nothing to do with the actual product.&nbsp;&nbsp; You can buy the silver dollars on ebay all day long.&nbsp; You can buy all the 2009 proof sets you want.&nbsp; You can buy just the Lincoln sets if you want.</b></p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; I&#039;ve already got my 2009 silver proof set with the cents and my NGC PF70 &#039;09 Lincoln silver dollar stashed.&nbsp; &nbsp; I&#039;m on the fence whether I care to order one of these, pay the shipping and wait.&nbsp; Then, you might get them and the cents will have white spots all over them, which appears to be common.</p><p>&nbsp; If I decide to get one, I&#039;ll keep it.&nbsp;&nbsp; The actual product is not rare.&nbsp; I wouldn&#039;t stay up until midnight to get one of these but since it&#039;s going in the morning, I might try to get one just to be part of it and have another set.&nbsp; We&#039;ll see.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
