    Mine were shipped out today via UPS. Seems as if the Mint is exploring all the delivery services.

  • Tom147Tom147 Posts: 1,485 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Same here. Ordered in the 1st 5 minutes. Confirmation almost immediately. No word on shipping.

  • joeykoinsjoeykoins Posts: 17,624 ✭✭✭✭✭

    If you guys are wondering why I received mine so early, I enrolled and ordered early in October. Just to throw that out there. :)

    I have been enrolled in the program for years, but don't think that helps. Not only do I not have the coins, I don't even have a ship date yet. Order Placed 11/30, Status = Processing.

    Enrollment didn’t help any of my orders. Still no word on shipping.

    Not stressed on these, they’ll get to it when they get to it.

  • koynekwestkoynekwest Posts: 10,048 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I enrolled shortly before they went on sale. I don't know if it helped the expediency of the order but it did ensure I got a couple of sets.

  • TurtleCatTurtleCat Posts: 4,628 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I used to like the mint sets but the price is too high now and the coins themselves have an unacceptably high (to me) number of hits and marks. The packaging is also not my favorite. Too bad they don’t include the little philly and denver tokens as well anymore.

    Get off my lawn, kids!

    Received word my sets are shipped. Ordered in the 1st 5 minutes. Not in a big hurry anyway.

  • PocketArtPocketArt Posts: 1,335 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I received mine today.

    I went through the same routine as I had the past 4 years. Open one set of the two that were charged to my account.

    I look for quality, and anything out of the normal. Nothing abnormal.

    Denver mint gets kudos for quality of strike, and lack of marks. Philly 'really' lacks for quality as coins appear to have more nicks, hits, and rubs . Nice PL fields on Denver coins. Philly is semi-pl to none.

    If you can attain high grade strikes from Philly mint, and with PL appearance. You did good! Those are the winners in my book. o:)

    I agree concerning the Philadelphia coins, however, my Kennedy p, is a better turn out than my Denver Kennedy. This is just according to one set. The Denver Cent I have pictured, second to none by eye appeal. I am yet to open my second set. That's if I open it? Have to examine the set more closer with my scope for any abnmoralities. Glad you received your set/s. ;)

    good mail day 🙃

    everyone's been pretty great sharing photos so far, but if there're any addtl / specific features the forum wants to see, let me / us know - more than happy to snap some extras

  • ɹoʇɔǝlloɔɹoʇɔǝlloɔ Posts: 1,436 ✭✭✭✭✭

    gonna share as I go through em

    one of my salt river bay P quarters looks like it got shot with a tiny bullet on obverse by AM 😐

    assuming this is common, but I've never noticed how much stronger / more pronounced the serif on the lower right part of the last A in AMERICA is compared to the same serif on the first A

    [edited to call out the P roosevelt]

    flat L in LIBERTY, relative to the other more rounded, pronounced peaks in letters in LIBERTY, D tallgrass prairie

    circular divet on obverse D kennedy

  • ɹoʇɔǝlloɔɹoʇɔǝlloɔ Posts: 1,436 ✭✭✭✭✭

    overall, my P sets have a more satiny finish and the D sets have a much more PL finish

    Is there something going on with the rim above the ES ? Looks odd from the photo anyway.

  • koynekwestkoynekwest Posts: 10,048 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Got mine today. My initial observations agree with ɹoʇɔǝlloɔ's comment.

    No box at front door, really PO'D right now...

    its the holder - the distortion caused by the plastic housing made it very difficult to clearly assess the rims and sometimes even words near the edges

    @ECHOES that. sucks.
