    no order limits?

    Who cares at this point. There will be so many of these that the only people making anything will be the mint.

    Maybe the mint will entice us with a new error found in these rolls exclusively.
  • ConstantineConstantine Posts: 2,369 ✭✭✭
    A new doubled die would be tough with that reverse! Just not much going on with that shield design wise. Not like with the Formative Years where Lincoln's hand is in the perfect central spot. Maybe some of these will be without the edge inscription though......

    ....it will be quite a temptation to rip open the fancy wrappers to check 'em. image

  • What would be the reason to buy these?

    I bet these are not big sellers as eBay prices for these rolls have come down to less than $2 each in many cases. The only draw is the fancy rolling paper they come in which admittedly people do collect. Errors....... who knows? Once you open the $9 box you have $1 worth of coins...... The Mint wins again!!
  • Are the mint wrappers really worth the money?image

    << <i>What would be the reason to buy these? >>



    The reason would be that they are the first of a new design. However, as we all know, these will be hoarded like so many first designs. So without a limit posted, these specific Mint two roll sets may have a huge number behind them. Of course you can buy them because you love collecting Lincolns and $8.95 a box won't break the bank.

    people buy half pennies for thousands of dollars.

    7 boxes. In stock and reserved. Also suspended with cancel boxes gone. Looks like they have to go back through their orders.
  • ConstantineConstantine Posts: 2,369 ✭✭✭
    5 boxes..........34211xxx

    One day I will be able to build a bomb shelter out of these little unopened white boxes I keep accumulating.

    6 boxes, same order number starting 5, habit I guess. image

    Got checked out really fast for the mint, I guess there wasn't much demand to get right in and buy them.

    Ordered 5 sets, I guess there is only limited demand for this item, because I breezed through check out.

    Same here. That was the quickest I've ever ordered anything from the mint. Well, not the quickest. I'd say the quickest was when I ordered a set of the ever-so-popular Kennedy halves last year. image

    What does it mean if it says "Order Suspended" in the order status. Also says In Stock and Reserved with no cancel box.
  • BigEBigE Posts: 6,949 ✭✭✭

    It means they have suspended your order to check your pennies for errors before they send them outimage-----------BigE

    in the case of a newly placed order, they all seem to go "suspended" for a few minutes then go into "hold"

    Probably something wrong with your cc...suggest you call them.

  • Just can't get too excited about this one......Could be on sale for a LONG time...
  • ConstantineConstantine Posts: 2,369 ✭✭✭
    I was kinda hoping that LP3 & LP4 would have gone off sale today when the LP5 came out, but I guess not......

    Have you ordered any spouse coins recently? The order is literally finished before you open the browser. Now that's fast!
  • Those cancel boxes are gone so quick...they don't want any buyer remoress...at least till you get them home. Then I guess if you bought 5 boxes, the cost to mail 5 dollars worth of cents back, will make you forget about it. image

    First year of the new design that will probably be used for the next 50 years...... Count me in!
  • MsMorrisineMsMorrisine Posts: 36,070 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Ah... mine got a "hold" because I ordered a First Spouse with it.

    The cancel boxes are still there and the order is on "hold" (they don't trust me after all the ridiculous money I spend there?)

  • Something very interesting happened.....I logged into the Mint website to see the status of my order yesterday and.......now it shows no orders in the order tracking section like it did yesterday...I even remember my number but now there is nothing showing?
  • JedPlanchetJedPlanchet Posts: 908 ✭✭✭
    Got a couple of sets - to go with the 2009 Rolls from last year. What can I say, I like fancy paper ... image

    Your in good company with that statement. It's the mint produced rolls that count and not what's inside the rolls.

    My order arrived today and all boxes are dated 03-03-10. Have any errors been found in these early minted coins?
  • ObiwancanoliObiwancanoli Posts: 1,065 ✭✭✭
    My 5 came in yesterday... though I agree these will likely never significantly appreciate, it will nevertheless be nice, in the years to come, to know I have 5 pristine, original sets. They'll probably serve me better to have them - and give them - as gifts which, due to their new-ness and originality, will probably be appreciated far more than their value will ever justify.
