As the issue date draws nearer (6/11) I’m guessing some of the folks with big subscription numbers are starting to weigh the risk and reward of the silver sets. This forum group has started their own feeding frenzy- maybe the common collectors aren’t going to play at $350-400 set.
Yes, I agree. Even at 151K, I don't think they are a slam dunk at $245.
Mintages that seem "low" now might not seem so low in 10 or 20 years. With this inflated issue price presumably carrying over into future years, it's not going to stay "low mintage" for long. I think this year's set has somewhat more appeal than other modern proof (and mint) sets due to the anniversary, but not much.
I won't be surprised if it's temporarily hot and then ends up like the 1999 silver proof set which initially sold for $00s (when spot was much lower) due to the SQ program novelty. It's bullion coinage now. Yes, I know much lower mintage for the 2026, but not actually low. There are very few coins (even US) proportionately with this number which will survive longer term in similar quality.
Longer term, I expect the buying of annual sets and collecting of these series to decline too. At this price, it's not like there aren't far better values and more interesting coins for a similar cost.
Not a few, a lot. It's another uncompetitive US Mint offering.
Proofs are not business strikes. It does make a difference in the market.
Yes, I know. I'm quite confident the outcome will be similar for both.

I have little doubt the price will be cheaper in a few years. However, I also have no doubt the business strike cents will continue to carry a significant numismatic premium, unlike the 1999 silver proof set.
The 2017 EU cent is NOT a business strike. But with a mintage of 215,000 it still sells for $20+ a decade later. I would expect the long term price of the 2026 circulation strikes to be above that.
The other obvious comp would be the 1996-W dime which is still a $10 to $15 item DESPITE a mintage of 1.5 million and being in a less collected series.

To me, it depends upon the time horizon. In 10 years or near it, probably.
Multiple decades from now, this coinage (mint and proof sets generally) may sell for similar prices to today, but the money will buy much less.
My family moved back to the US in 1975 as the bicentennial coinage was released. In anything approaching 50 years, if circulating coinage including mint sets and proof sets isn't discontinued entirely, we'll be talking about 100+ years of monotonous coinage. I don't expect anywhere near the current collector base for any of this coinage, and certainly not all of it.
Far too much of it already and it just isn't interesting enough.
Lanza’s on it. I want the cent. I’ll cut it out of the mint set for the Dansco and put the dreck with the dreck.
Flippers will do well for a while selling whole sets and cents to collectors. Impatient album fillers already have bought the halves, dimes, nickels, and two of the quarters from quick eBay sellers.

One more pack of ten ? You dropped all the silver sets ?
I am thinking about keeping a cracked out Clad S proof set and placing ALL the coins in my pocket change wear bag. I have a 1975S proof set and a few USA & foreign off centers and 1960 proof set in the wear and tear circ bag. Stopped carrying it years ago. Need better shorts to carry the extra poundage

Is this 2026 annual uncirculated mint set still attractive or has the mintage increased( or probability of increase after day of sale) ?
The mintage is fine. It's the price per set I have issue with. I still believe they should make these to demand, whether that is 200,000 or 2,000,000. These are not supposed to be a special product, they should price it as such. I have four or five on subscription but will probably drop it down to two or three before the deadline. I still want a couple sets, I would grab more if fairly priced.
I have one silver proof set coming because I wanted one, but I dropped the rest that I had on subscription. It is hard to justify $250/set. I just picked up a nice classic Hawaii quarter for the price of one of those proof sets.
These mint sets may very well be my last purchase from the mint given the pricing situation. It will take something very special to make my ordering worthwhile.

Subscription Red Button is lit right now.

If Mint adds in 9% more afterwards like silver proof sets then maybe we see 327,000 sets ?
I am still on hook for 10 & overnight flight fee.

ats": 201992, is the current number for sale on drop day. Always moves around the last few days before release, but I would guess this will go over the posted limit and the last 10,000's will be back ordered into November or December. Or not. LOL!

Sure is! When I see something on the schedule months in advance, and I really want it, the last thing I want is to wait all that time just to find out I have back ordered it and won't get it until Thanksgiving or Christmas. Makes subscriptions, or being "first" on drop day all the more important to the impatient.
My subscription is at 4 sets. I think they will be cool but not hot at the same time.
Collecting 1970s Topps baseball wax, rack and cello packs, as well as PCGS graded Half Cents, Large Cents, Two Cent pieces and Three Cent Silver pieces.
I vote they will be hot! A quick sellout also. Lincoln collectors will be after the coveted, only available in this set, dual dated Lincoln. Throw in people looking for high grade pieces and 300k sets should go quickly. Also throw in the FOMO effect and these will be a bargain at $125! My opinion of course!
Ok so should I reduce my sub from 4? Just feels like it’s good to have one to collect. The way most of the mints coins have done this year, I don’t want to waste $$. Any thoughts?
Looks like backorder dime bags are shipping early. My credit card was just hit with the charge. It’s the mint “you never know what you will get or when you get it”

Not the Lincoln cent. Not even a dozen years from now.
All comments reflect the opinion of the author, even when irrefutably accurate.
I have 10 coming on my sub, one for me to keep, and 9 already sold enough pieces, most the cents to cover the cost of the entire order. There really is still a lot of FOMO and breaking the sets up brings a higher return that just flipping them whole for me.
That leaves me with a bunch of dimes, quarters, and halves to look through for possible grading. And a small pile of Jeffersons and Native dollars, the dollars may well get spent if nobody wants them on EB, the Jeffersons might have one or two to grade, then the same fate as the dollars.
Collecting a few modern coins on a budget that generates funding for other things, older more interesting things. Might be enough to pay for the 1916-S Barber dime that I just got from HA.
I just freed up a couple more for you guys. I dropped down to three sets. I have a hard time with the price they are demanding for these sets.
I just finished a survey with the mint about the proof set I bought and told them what I thought about prices and the billboard like initials cluttering up the fields of the coins.
I’m hoping to snag a bunch after HH limits are dropped. That’s of course if they don’t sell out the day of release. My spidey sense is telling me they will have a strong day when released. I want a complete set of 68’s which will be a tough challenge. And costly with the new jacked up prices this year.

I'm not sure they last until the HHL is dropped at noon the next day, but you'll have shots at it in the week that follows with cancellations and failed payment methods.

Full set of 68s? Over 20 coins that seems to be a tall order. Do you normally accomplish this every year? How many sets do you normally have to screen to find that many?

Agree. Although mintages will be huge for all coins this year, 68's for all coins is going to be difficult and you'll be competing with the likes of big money buyers like Hansen for those top pops. Maybe more realistic in NGC 68 as their 68s are typically on the level of PCGS 67s.

I know it’s a difficult undertaking! I have been searching Mint sets for over 25 years now. I have a varied set of CAC and PCGS 68 Lincolns that I made myself. This year I’m expanding my goals. I know it’s a difficult if not impossible goal but I’m undertaking it nonetheless. I normally buy 40-50 sets per year. A man has to set goals! I am always hopeful with each new years Mint sets but quickly realize these sets are mostly 65 and below quality! Good luck to all fellow hunters.
Bumped into a guy at the coin store. He asked if they were going to have cents. They said "no" and turned to me. I told him to try and snag a subscription to the Mint sets.
He said, "i only want the cents."
I said, "everyone only wants the cents. They'll likely be selling for $75 or higher. "
He said, "I'd rather do that. What would I do with the rest of the set?"
I said, "just spend it. "
He said, "will you have some?"
I said, "I should"
FWIW

The answer should be a simple yes. But it seems that with the congratulations sets earlier this year you could place an order with the HHL1 in addition to your subscription order. I am guessing it was an oversight or a glitch in the system.

Subscriptions got cut back to 10.
As the issue date draws nearer (6/11) I’m guessing some of the folks with big subscription numbers are starting to weigh the risk and reward of the silver sets. This forum group has started their own feeding frenzy- maybe the common collectors aren’t going to play at $350-400 set.
Yes, I know. I'm quite confident the outcome will be similar for both.
I have little doubt the price will be cheaper in a few years. However, I also have no doubt the business strike cents will continue to carry a significant numismatic premium, unlike the 1999 silver proof set.

I am always hopeful with each new years Mint sets but quickly realize these sets are mostly 65 and below quality! Good luck to all fellow hunters.
I'm mailing it out to you on the 15th of Never.
Can you bump that up to the 8th of never? I might want to flip it. LOL!
Bumped into a guy at the coin store. He asked if they were going to have cents. They said "no" and turned to me. I told him to try and snag a subscription to the Mint sets.
He said, "i only want the cents."
I said, "everyone only wants the cents. They'll likely be selling for $75 or higher. "
He said, "I'd rather do that. What would I do with the rest of the set?"
I said, "just spend it. "
He said, "will you have some?"
I said, "I should"
FWIW

In that case I hope some of us are the recipients 😉🫡
does anyone know if my subscription counts towards the household limit? for example, if i subscribe to 10 of them, can i purchase another 10 on drop day via waiting in line?
No, you cannot. However, sometimes the Mint screws up, so you can try.

thanks!
The answer should be a simple yes. But it seems that with the congratulations sets earlier this year you could place an order with the HHL1 in addition to your subscription order. I am guessing it was an oversight or a glitch in the system.
