    Well, I got a shipping notice on my Mint Sets,,,,,,,,,,

    You're the first.

    @GiveMeProof said:
    Is anyone getting these graded with the COA? How will this be done? Mine still processing. I would guess they would remain "First Strike" eligible if you don't open the package.

    It could / should be the same as previous coin and COA. A call to CS - c o u l d - get the answer. This soon after shipping starts the answer may not have been made.

    @ɹoʇɔǝlloɔ said:

    hoping to see some forum members get some low cert #s

    They probably won't ship in number order. But then again, as the checked the COA they might have put them in order. Getting a low number would be nice. #1 might command a premium.

    Please report the COA number you receive

    I'm tired of seeing: PROCESSING....on the Mint Website...

    Has anyone received a shipment notice? After all, the Mint told CW, that shipments will start 12/7

    Does anyone else notice that the US Mayflower Silver Medal being sold/release by the Royal Mint has an edge marking or what they call "London hallmark of quality" markings. The US issue does not have any marking on the edge, am I correct? This will differentiate the two US Silver medal from US Mint and Royal mint.
    Found this out today by MCM email offerings and verified from the Royal Mint website.

    My silver set and RP are still processing since Nov 17th. so I have not seen these in person.

    I think the silver medal has a smooth edge and the UK coin reeded. I can't find info on edge markings, so might need a link or something. Photo?

    The UK version definitely has a hallmark on the edge. I don't have a US version to check.

    I am still confused about edge markings. I have asked two different eBay people who have the UK set of two silver coins, and have been told they see no special symbols or numbers on the edge of the US medal in that set. Does anyone have an edge photo of the US Mint medal (the one was shipped in the 2 piece UK set)?

    It's small, but it's there. It's not really visible unless you open the capsule. I would take a photo but I don't really want to handle it that much. There is a photo posted in the other thread someone started about these from MCM.

    OK. I got a US set in today. No hallmark. So, for what it's worth, you can tell the difference between the UK set and US set Mayflower medal even out of the packaging.

    Ebay "seller" zzhawww25 just cancelled my silver set order that I paid $200 for weeks ago. Obviously wanted more. Neg FB left. One to avoid and block.

    I sent a gold set back. It arrived there on Dec 3. Not even an email from the Mint yet.

    I called the mint about my return as it had been 2 weeks and no world from them.

    They told me all incoming packages are put in quarantine for two weeks before they touch them and then they are processed on a FIFO basis.

    May take awhile,,,,

    My typo'ed order was "delivery exception" return to sender. On Nov 16th. Mint "received/allow 3-5 days for refund" on Dec 13th. Refund posted Dec 16th

    Order was Maryland/DC.

    I think that was one of those initial speculations/recommendations back in March. They apparently haven't updated their procedures since.

    Coins

    Set Number (?) This could be a set number. When you get your set check the cards that come in the internal box, lower right corner.

    I need to practice my photography more. My skills have faded in the past 20 years since I last was snapping daily.

    Here's a set on ebay with the COA certified by NGC

    Note the coin cert labels have no info referencing the COA, the COA is a "stand alone" certification. Seems kinda dumb to certify that the number printed on the COA is, well, printed on the COA. Seems like a wast of grading fee money.

    The First Strike deadline was 12/17/2020 for all Mayflower coins and sets. That means that the silver 2 coin sets which finally came available again on 12/17/2020 (and haven't yet shipped) won't be eligible.

    oh god ... just checked last night and still processing [assumed they were taking a break through to the new year as I have 3 orders in processing from weeks ago] - checking now ....

    I got the cancelation email yet it still says processing in my account.

    Its impossible to get a rep now. Just busy. Guessing a lot of cancelation emails went out.

    I also returned a gold set which they received on 12/3. I've not even received an email that they received it yet much less a refund.

    Ugh

    Just got an email that my order needs attention. Only thing I can think it is is the 2020 mint set in it isn’t available, so they want to ask if I want the rest of my stuff.
    Not sure how that can be, it was available for a long time that morning. I’ll call soon to find out.
