Bill,
Would the 1933 Saint be in that set?

If they started it, I would register what I have, but I would be short a few coins and would most likely not pursue them.

Now, now when I was 17, I was all excited about the 1970-D Kennedy half dollar.

It was minted only for the mint set and never sent into "circulation."

My first taste of US Mint collector orientation.

There will be a repeat (over and over again) with the 2002 halves.

Brian that one was originally minted for circulation. Unlike the 70-D half mentioned in the last post which was only minted for mint sets.

burp!

That set is getting bigger fast with the 2002-P&D Kennedys and Sacs now qualifying. Wonder how many 2003 will bring?

You know I did not even think about them.

I thought that at least the P mint halves were minted for circulation, even though the D mints were not.

Another thought. Technically the 2002 SACS and Kennedies were originally minted for circulation but not released for circulation. Should they still be included?

Let's see, 1913 Liberty Nickel, 1804 Dollar, all those patterns...

We already HAVE those Registries. They're called Proofs.

These are coins the mint specifically made and sold directly to the collectors and were not intended for circulation. Patterns and other coins like that were never intended to be sold.

Bill,

In a word, no. This set will not go up before Christmas. I'm in the process of launching the the Canadian Coin Set Registry (which is massive) and also trying to finish weighting for established sets. I don't foresee new set compositions, such as your request, going up for several months. Maybe longer. I apologize for the long delay, but we are trying our best to get the weighting done before building any new sets. Your patience is very much appreciated.

Thanks for the response BJ.
