2019 Ornaments (19XC, 19XD), $24.95, On sale today...
Presenting the answer to the question no one has asked, the 2019 Christmas Non-Denominational Ornaments! In August!
There are two versions, a kids "Mighty Minters" version, and a more... adult version without the kid characters. Each will feature a 2019-P uncirculated Kennedy half. (Reverse out, so you'd never know it was a 2019, but I digress.) Each is made from brass with a "imitation rhodium silver look". Neither states how the color is applied to the ornament.
At least they're fully made in the USA!
The catalog numbers suggest these are a single year special product, but I could see the Mint doing this yearly if demand is there. And if the Kennedy isn't PL, I'm not sure if the demand will be there...
Mintage Limit: None
Product Limit: None
Household Order Limit: 15
They are $24.95 each, and will be available August 13@Noon. That HHL is pretty optomistic.

2019 United States Mint Ornament (19XD)
The wreath’s two-toned green leaves and deep red berries—accented by etched silver-toned highlights—all come together exquisitely to capture the spirit and joy of the season.
The NA C&C sets are more my stocking stuffers than this...

Nice looking products, just not an interest of mine..... I am more traditional when it comes to Christmas decorations...Cheers, RickO
These may be “granny bait” items, but there is a chance I may decide to buy one.
The past two years I’ve hidden a holed coin in our Christmas tree and challenged my family to try to find it. This product would fit in well at my house!
There is no copyright or TM. So...
Buy a bag of Kennedys, visit Hobby Lobby, and sell on the Bay.
Yep, the copyright mark is there....
I give them credit for the effort.
Still wish I had snagged one of the Silver Eagles that had a folding knife blade inside that they sold 20 or so years ago.
Copyright is for “United States ‘Mint” there are none for the design.
Edit: A trademark for the Mighty Minters.
?
"c. U.S.Mint" means the design is copyrighted in 2019 by the US Mint.
That's how I see it, anyway. Any lawyers want to chime in?
Ho, ho, ho. Bump for those wishing to celebrate the holidays... in August.
On sale today at Noon...
Early Christmas presents... if only they would last that long with other present-giving days.
Did the Mint offer similar ornaments a few years back?
Yes, here is one from 2000, there have been others.
Like I posted in the other thread:
Maybe these are not for everyone, but stuff like this does sell among the younger generation. It really can't be considered collecting, but maybe this is one thing that sets off a spark in someone out there.

No mintage limit. Probably get these later in the year.
Mighty minter merchandises are a waste of money for both Mint and the parents. There is no way any kid would like these poorly executed designs from a 70's cartoonist.
How many school kids you know like Scrappy-Doo instead of these?
If they buy it and save it and add other pieces later, it's collecting.
Household commander likes the set with the “pixies.”
Now I need find out how many pixies she “needs.” Plus what I “would like.”
Here is my 2019 ornament. Excuse the unprofessional pictures
Best place to buy !
