It wouldnt let me check out with my info...had to check out as guest. So weird! thought it was some glitch, I would be logged in, but when i went to check out it would ask for my info again and say 'not found' when I entered it. Oh well, still got one for the hell out of it.
Omg
I got one by 12:01 on my first try, never had such a quick order received.
Either nobody wants this set or the mint finally fixed their ordering system.
This will probably be my last mint order for 2021.

I have not bought this set for several years.
Before it was not this kind of packaging.
I have several 2013 sets, all badly toned, so I did not buy it later.
I like this set because you can take each coin out.

Is this the first time the coins in this set are packaged in individual capsules?
The original plastic cases were issued in 2012, 2013, and 2014. All of my coins in those sets were toned. In 2015, no LE Proof set was issued, and starting in 2016, the LE sets used individual capsules. My 2016 and later sets did not have any visible toning. The original packaging was a US Mint failure.
Still about 5800 left. Mint activity on this set has slowed.
And so my frenzied year of 2021 US Mint product purchases comes to a close.....sort of....three different products in "processing" and three more different products in "back order"

Very few people want this set. As evidenced by my not buying one when I buy everything. LOL.
Only one year was it very popular even at the old $160 price tag and that was because there was a coin that could only be found there. This coin set is almost guaranteed to be under $200 by Christmas.

How about if you sell the coins in the set separately?

That is a nice set.... I had not noticed it before. I put in for a reminder and may get one. Cheers, RickO
Will sure try to get one.
I got six of 2020 version though this is a good investment, and auction price not able to break even.
I have some for early years, they are very easy to get toned because the packaging, so I do not buy them anymore.
From which year this set began to use individual capsules?
Nice set - definitely going to try for one.

It was much easier than usual. I did get the page not found a few times after hitting final submit, but overall much easier
