No.

1. Penny set has a lower starting price at 149.95 where as this one starting price is $100 higher.
2. Penny set is "farewell to the penny" where as there will always another SML hanging around. Case in point, there was the SML fractional last year, and this year they release this one. What to stop them from releasing another theme of fractional SML?
3. If you look at last year set which has the starting price of $199.95. It is about a year now and if you search on ebay, it finally go up above $300 (up roughly 33%). If you compare that with the penny set which is now selling at around $500 (roughtly 3 times of the original price)?

I think this set may go as well as the previous year one but I don't think it can catch the penny set.

I ordered 3 sets then decided to cancel & put that money in Spiderman coin- 3 1st from Downies & then another 3 from APMEX. This coin is discussed in another thread under world commemorative coins. SML set is nice but am drawn to Spiderman coin & thought would be easier to flip than this set.

So you prefer a price of $500 with free shipping? Interesting...

Nope... I prefer the same price but with more realistic shipping fee. I already have 2 sets of this and no u.s fund in my paypal and the large shipping fee put me off. As someone pointed out in the other forum, even with $35 usd shipping, it is still cheaper than buying from RCM with free shipping.
