I just received mine.....Packaging is surprising... quite substantial. The medal is very impressive. I purchased this as a gift for a friend. I may get one for myself..... very nice and pristine condition. Cheers, RickO

    I thought about picking one up for the little history book about Liberty.

    Nice, very encouraging update Ricko, and nice pick ECHOES. Still waiting for mine to arrive- hopefully tomorrow!

    Just received mine in the mail today. The sizzle was definitely included on this one...never seen so much literature devoted to a single U.S. mint product. Nice presentation, display, and with the accompanying literature leaves me guessing...did I pay for the medal, or, the accouterments?

    Pretty cool...but for the money I'd prefer a little miniature Liberty pendant along with the medal.

    I don't buy much from the mint (IIRC a March of Dimes was the last one, and I did buy an UHR but sent it back as it was of very poor quality)...but I bit on this one. Arrived while I was away over the weekend, and just opened it. The packaging/literature was quite a bit more solid than I was expecting, and explains the price a bit. I like it and I'm keeping it. I'll try and get a glamour shot of it later.

    I really liked it in hand, and gave one as a gift that was much appreciated by a non-collector friend.
