Mint to issue Reverse Proof Presidential Dollars in 2015

pf70collector

147,873 2015 presidential proof sets sold. Who are buying these sets? I am not, but there seems to be some collecting these.

Seems only three presidents will only be minted in 2016 since Jimmy Carter is still alive.

Coin will be minted only if President is deceased for two years prior to their coin release date.

these coins can get "copper" spots.

they often come with them directly from the mint.

then there are the other typical mint issues.

17,000 RP? How many will stay 70?

Any bets as to whether or not the JFK C&C set comes with a Kennedy half as well?

If yes, will it have some gimmicky finish or be struck in .900 fine silver?

MsMorrisine

My bet is no special half

However if could have a current spec half in it

Reason: costs for a special half

BigA

No half....

The Mint has pics of the Truman set up. Looks like a stamp, the RP Prezbuck and Truman's Prez medal in silver.

Still a June 30 release.

2015 Coin & Chronicles Set - Harry S. Truman

If that is a picture of an actual Reverse Proof Truman dollar, as opposed to just a mockup or artist's conception, it sure looks like nothing!

They sure can't seem to get the presidential likeness right on the presidential dollars. I like the medal, though.
