Set only has 7500. If you are going to be hateful at least have the correct information to criticize.
From my post - 2013 $0.25 Cupronickel - Royal Infant Carriage - unknown detail (Mintage: supply limited) 2013 $20 Pure Silver Coin 1oz (Set of 3 - 1 oz coins)- Royal Infant Set - unknow detail ($249.95) - (Mintage: 7500) [possibly a crazy one for people whom follow royals] 2013 $5 Pure Silver Coin 3/4 oz - Royal Infant Toys - unknown detail ($74.95) - (Mintage: 20000)

I think, with attractive design, the set will be desired item for many collectors.
Other 2 coins would be even not sell well, and due to low final mintage also will be *rare*

Ok, how are you guys ordering from the Post Office already? My rep doesn't even have an item number for it yet (just spoke to him an hour ago). Did you folks get an item # with your CP order? Curious how CP is taking orders but the mint hasn't assigned an item number to it yet.  Edit: FWIW, also told that this won't be on preorder until near the end of August. At least 2 weeks or more from now.

I think people are ordering the set from their local post offices, not through the phone. Local post offices have the August brochure with the Royal Coin Set in them. It shows blank coins.
Yes, they will be coming with a wooden box.
With the delay, I think the coins will have the name of the baby. Which will make it a very hot set.

I phoned them and they had no clue what I was talking about. They said they did not have the set in their system. Do you have a product number?

@MoneyPenney,
Very strange because I call again today to ask them when they think the set will be shipped,she told me anytime after the 13th of aug. They told me the same thing that they had no clue,but I insisted and he check and found the item,it will cost me 249.95 plus $2.00 shipping fee. Maybe they were told no to do it anymore.I don't have a product no,sorry.

I will need to get 1 set for my expected son (November)....... I may have to get something from UK for him (with this same theme)..... How many countries in the Commonwealth will issue coins of this same theme? I may need to add Australia & New Zealand to the list of Canada & UK..... this will get expensive.

@SA4H: For UK try to get 2013 UK Silver "Sovereign". The price on ebay is inflated, but the coin looks so good.

Thanks Silveroid. I saw that coin but at the time I didn't get it quick enough (didn't know that I actually pay lower price, saving from VAT).... I'll just wait and see if the price will drop.... or save for another coins. I'm sure Royal Mint will release more coins of this theme..... it's a golden goose for them.
