Lucky Mint Purchase
I guess I may have gotten some what lucky with the Limited Edition 2021 Silver Proof Set - American Eagle Collection. I was looking around the Mints web site, and noticed the the Limited Edition set had the remind me button. I continued to look around (general browsing). For the heck of it I checked the Limited Edition set just before logging off, and low and behold it had Add to Bag. Which of course I did and managed to get it into my bag and checked out. About 5 min later I went back to check to see if I really had the set on order. Yes I did have in my Order History and I saw that it was again on Remind Me.

Re: Lucky Mint Purchase
Nice, I decided I've spent too much money with the mint this year so I opted not to get one even though when I checked at 2pm it was still available.

Re: Lucky Mint Purchase
Wow. Nice!
Oh my...just looked...they were gone at 6:50 PM, but 235.00? Yowza! I quit the silver proof sets b/c they upped the price so much form the year before. This one went way up to it seems!

Re: Lucky Mint Purchase
I think they're charging that much because there are only 50K of them which is extremely low mintage. I bet he can flip it for double the money. People are paying high prices on Ebay for anything from the mint in 2021. The 2021 reverse proof had a higher mintage and was 175.00. Beautiful coins though. None were dislodged in my reverse proof set and I'm glad I bought them. Never had a reverse proof. I probably should buy the proof to go along with it.

Re: Lucky Mint Purchase
It was either last year or the year before the mint raised prices unreasonably high as compared to what they were. It was a topic of discussion on the other forum I am on. There were a lot of people wondering why the mint would do this as they thought it would cause a lot of people not to keep up with subscriptions. I know I cancelled mine b/c it was an unreasonable raise (not just a 10.00 or so).
