    I don't think anybody is interested in it. I got my 3 sets, though.

    You just did!

    I was looking too @RichR and apparently there is no interest or at least very minimal interest. This would have been a huge thread a few years ago, with people trying to buy them and guessing when the sellout would occur... there aren't even any disputes about them. Nope....not even the Official Thread of the 2024 Reverse Morgan/Peace Dollar Set

    I ordered 2 sets & I’m glad I did.

    Always looking for attractive rim toned Morgan and Peace dollars in PCGS or (older) ANA/ANACS holders!

    High mintage and high price. Pass. Did the Mint really think they could sell that many?

    I’m all in on the peace dollar set. I’ll put them in a drawer and keep it up. They are still highly collected and relatively cheap. Just not limited & cheap enough for flippers and speculators. The dip in demand is most likely from resellers not buying bulk because of limited meat on the bone. Smh what ever. Everyone who wants them can buy directly from the mint and thats a win.

    Dansco should make binder that accepts the plastic capsules from the mint

    Agreed! I've been struggling to determine the best way to store these. Although each box isn't big they are starting to take up a lot of space in the safe. I'd love an album to display them in which would make it easier to view them all at once and save space in storage. I've read that they don't fit in the Lighthouse dollar capsule albums and have not found anything else that would support the current US Mint caps. I've toyed with the idea of just getting an Dansco silver dollar album with blank pages to fill but I'd prefer to not take them out of the capsules if I don't have to. I'm still mulling it over.

    Has anyone found any creative ways to display these in some sort of album?

    I'd laugh if these unexpectedly arrived with a "special finish" or some kind of striking issue...suddenly everyone would be falling over themselves to order the remaining stock!

    I forgot I had a subscription and had a set shipped to me. $215. Oh well. Canceled my subscription. But they came in a nice clam shell case this time. That was a surprise.

    No issues here.

    For 2024 I cut back from 10 Laser etched dies/ fine design details erased cameo proof to none, & then dropped from HHL 5 to three sets 2024 Reverse proofs. All 3 sets arrived today in perfect shape. Darn, I was hoping for an error or variety. Now you all can break out that magic plastic credit card as House Hold Limit of 5 RP sets is going going gone... They say:
    Sell sell sell...
    Happy Shopping !

    I assume all 262,500 will now sell out as they are creepy cool.

    Place the coins in these holders and find a Dansco page that will accommodate the 38.1 MM holder size.https://www.coinsupplyexpress.com/guardhouse-evocore-direct-fit-coin-capsules-packs-of-10-penny-thru-ase

    It is shipped with plastic padded envelop, not a box.

    [It is shipped with plastic padded envelop, not a box.]

    For a somewhat pricier item, I thought that was an interesting/odd shipping choice.

    Fortunately mine arrived in good shape.

    Hey Walle...re your album...very creative.

    Quick question...how do you secure/center the smaller diameter capsule in the larger hole?

    Also...what's the catalog number of that "blank: Dansco album?

    The page is 50mm Dansco (2 put together) i picked up a black foam sheet at a hobby lobby and used a olfa circle cutter. 2 pages together gives you the height you need for the capsule, I first cut a circle 50mm to fit the hole, then adjust the size to cut a hole in the center the size of what ever coin/capsule I'm working with. Hope this helps.

    I found putting two Dansco pages together worked for me, I don't have a lot of coins in capsules. I did a page for my $5 gold and another album for my silver.




    Well done, that’s an innovative solution

    Sales still below shipped & returned 2 coin reverse proof sets. Buy now & get someone's return ?

    As of December 22-2024 Reverse Proof Set has about 17,000 returns. Number continues going down even though some are most likely selling. I am glad I got 3 perfect 2024 sets, down from 5 prior year in 2023.

    Agree. All the boxes are useless. I wish the US Mint, French mint, etc, would just sell coins in capsules and do away with all the box clutter.

    I do not collect them, so no reason to start a thread. 2021 made some sense, 2023 and 2024 and 2025 not so much.

    New delivery numbers & added image of Mint website "Limited" sales pitch.

    I look occasionally to see if 3x plus spot price has been adjusted down on Morgan & Peace offers.

    If one didn’t know better, one could easily believe the reverse proofs were Franklin Mint “Sucker bait”.
