    You all are forgetting these were on sale awhile back and probably one of your first qualifying orders. The free shipping is not retroactive.

    Also only the budget shipping is free.
    Any other method and you pay

    Interesting. I just got the notification last week that I qualify for free shipping.
    That’s from the proof set, congratulations set and three roll sally quarters. I shall watch 👀 carefully because I figured this would be on them.
    Thanks. ( you were right, so many different chocolates 🧐). 😉🙀🦫

    If its is just showing the shipping on the order before shipping that is just a placeholder for the charge on the order. It may just go away when shipped and charged to your card. You will have to wait because "you never know what you will get" :D

    These are real nice looking coins however I just didn't want to buy any commemorative medals. I have too many already. However when I was in Hot Springs Arkansas this past summer this is what I found on a wall bye a bank in downtown Hot Springs.



    I didn't get pictures of the whole mirror because the bank drive-thru with Block in and it was raining that day so I took whatever I could to stay dry. It's really neat looking and if you're ever in Hot Springs Arkansas you need to check it out.

    Wow, thanks for posting! You'd get a great response on the PSA Collectors forum!

    HAPPY COLLECTING!!!

    Music makes the world go round. Some days I miss the 70's and my rock & roll friends and wish I was still with them and out touring with U2. However I was "domesticated" by my current wife in 1978 and am living the dream with my family. I would not give this up for anything, except for maybe just one more short road trip, then back home. :/

    MCM has not finished selling all their Privy and regular dollar presales yet and returned their rejects. Just when you thought their limited number of 70's available were almost gone, surprise two new batches are available. I guess they are taking lessons from the Mint. >:)

    Like Bullsitter said it will take Blood Sweat and Tears to get these shipped. :#

    Five of my Processing orders went back to b/o status.


    My card was just hit for the following two orders.

    Order #1


    It appears the privy is not shipping as the total reflects less $85.


    Order #2

    my Privy's went to BO again as well. MCM put up a second batch of 70's for sale. only 10 at a time but taking a long time to sell them.
    We will have to wait until the big boys return their rejects to the mint before shipping begins >:)

    Some pictures might cheer this place up 🤨
    Personally the boys are giving me a hard time for ordering ( “like an impulsive child “.),😂 the boys can be rough. 🙀🦫
    Their right , and this super double knot secret release date for the privy is ridiculous.
    But why should I care? Because it’s those dang ase’s that are my curse. These are commemoratives, “ same problem “ say the lads.
    Backorder for me too 😉🙀🦫

    Mine changed back as well. The next thing to look for is when the shipping method changes to show only one method. It will show only UPS ground or USPS and not both. After that happens a shipping label will be printed within 24-48 hours. Then the wait between steps can be fast or drawn out. Packer packs box, boxes to shipper and finally shipper to you.
    Then wait for delivery each day until 3, oh shipper please bring my privy coins to me.

    I have an order for five of them and may just sell them for money to buy ASE's. Hold up or fold up ? :|

    I received my three piece Proof set and had to return it because the $5 gold was badly marked up on the reverse. Given the notices about back orders, I image I won’t be seeing any coins any time soon. I hope that I won’t be getting someone else’s reject.
