I expect a "Currently Unavailable" note by 1pm ET the latest and a "Sold Out" note come Christmas...

It'll be havoc for sure, but according to completed sales on ebay it's not as popular as the March of Dimes set. Well, it's "just" an RP CLAD Presidential dollar after all...

BTW, didn't the US Mint announce an RP proof set last year? Will it also contain RP Presidential dollar coins? According to the Truman C&C set listing, the RP is minted in Philadelphia and exclusive to this set. But that doesn't stop the US Mint from minting RP Presidential dollar coins in SF. And the mint marks are only on the coin's edge, thereby somewhat reducing the importance of the mint location. I guess we'll find out later in the year.

EDIT: According to this source...
http://www.coinweek.com/coins/news/...ectors-busy/
...there were rumors about RP proof sets, but nothing has been confirmed yet:

"Still to be determined is if the United States Mint will officially unveil one or possibly two Reverse Proof Sets to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the first San Francisco Proof coins. Numismatists take note; the first Proof coins bearing "S" mintmarks weren't released until 1968, certainly mitigating the symbolic significance of these "50th anniversary" sets in 2015.

But regardless of that trifling technicality, Reverse Proof sets may be offered in the following formats:

1. One Proof Set with base-metal coins in Reverse Proof finish
2. A Proof Set with the dime, quarters, and half dollar made from 90 percent silver planchets

While release dates, product specifications, and prices for these potential Reverse Proof sets are yet to be announced, there have been press announcements since August 2014 from the Mint hinting at such products. Nevertheless, as of today, there is still no mention of such sets in the U.S. Mint's official product release schedule."

I have heard for a long while now about the reverse proof set but still haven't seen anything concrete. Regardless with these sets I do believe they will be gone quick since the difference between these and the MOD set is 58,000, even if the dime was silver and this dollar is not. Either way try to get 5 and you could sell the rest to get yourself a free set at least. GL HF to all who are trying! :D

@omxfl

It seems the Mint got a bit a head of themselves when they announced that and they've since reported they'll create a reverse proof set in 2018 to commemorate the San Francisco Mint striking proof coins. So, unless Congress decides to Presidential dollars for unrecognized presidents in that year, we won't see reverse proof Presidential dollars then.
