Anyone got any tips for me? Since there is no mintage limit, wait a day. It is what I will probably do. |

I was on the fence when I thought they would be .999 silver. I just checked out the us mint website and noticed the Kennedy silver set coins are only 90% silver. I may regret it years from now but I may pass on this one.

Hi, Hop Devil. Why would 90% make you pass?

Do you notice in the mint link the set appears to just be using regular coins and not the special coins. (Although they do appear to be the high relief type)

I would expect the packaging to be like the ASE 25th set. All of those photos look made up. Except that one RP. Given what I have seen on the ASEs, I expect these coins will be awesome. Cant wait for them. |

I'm really excited about this set, it is packed full of potential profit. A reverse proof Kennedy! And a new "special" process on the San Fransisco uncirculated! Plus silver outta Denver... I can imagine this set will remain low mintage as it's coming out so late in 2014, it'll take them till 2015 just to sell off the original 150k sets and they can't mint new ones in 2015, I'm all over this set, hopefully I can get 5 sets. I haven't been this excited since profiting huge on the 2011 ASE set. Edited by Dctjr80

Well, I admit I definitely want a set or two... and the mint knows people will pay 100.00. But I would like to know the profit margin they are making. I have a feeling it would be a bit excessive. But, then again, I don't know how much it costs to make proof coins and the enhanced ones either. So maybe I am all wet.
I'd like to see them sell the set for a price that will make people think, "Wow! That was a great buy for the money." But I believe the days of this mindset in our economy are just about gone unless its a private individual with their own business.

I would expect the packaging to mirror the uncirculated P/D set (a card with inset capsules)

I'm hoping to get 5 sets - 2 to keep and 3 to eventually trade.

Theres a lot of information about them on the mint site. I think I'm going to pick up a set, even though I don't have a kennedy collection. I'd like to start one some day, but even if I don't I think having it would be worthwhile.
