Anyone see the US mint commercial on TV?

I was helping my daughter with her science project last night, and there was a commercial for U.S. Mint products on TV. I didn't happen to catch the jist of it but it was for the U.S. Mint and not some private mint.

    A customer mentioned an ad for the President dollar proof sets coming up, but I have not seen it yet.

    If it doesn't run during Jeopardy, or the local news, or a hockey game, I am not likely to see it.

  • I saw it last night -- it's the same one that they've been running for a while that makes coin collectors look like dopes with their heads in a cloud.

    They have updated the montage images to include the Prexy Proof set, though it is not mentioned specifically, just shown along with other products.

    Also, the purpose of the ads are not to tell YOU the viewer to buy or collect coins yourself, but instead the ad urges you to identify coin collectors in your life, and buy them "genuine coins from the United states Mint" -- it even refers to them as "shiny"
