Two of my sets have the bills slid over. They are definitely going back.

Mine arrived today and all are in great condition; no issues with the notes being bent or folded, and: Quote:
I thought the dollar bills would all be in order with the serial numbers. mine were all in order. Sorry y'all have been having issues with quality.  Is this the first 4-character US Mint product # (15RA)? edit: I did a quick spot check of this year's products and noticed that the Jack Nicklaus medals were also 4-characters, but I didn't see anything else at first glance.

Ordered three sets on Wednesday and they were delivered on Friday. (They were originally set to be delivered on Saturday)! All three are very nice, with no problems. Only two of the three dollar bills are in numerical sequence. The out of sequence bill would have been # B91140404A. Since all of them start with 911, the missing bill would have been kind of a "radar" note within the last five numbers. No big deal to me...I'm just glad the sets are nice.

Mine arrived today. Coins look amazing. The bill on one set was ever so close to having a nice fun serial number, just off on a single digit. The other has the bill slid to the right. Not sure what I intend to do with that set. I've never been inclined to sell a coin before, and I'm not particularly inclined to return because the coin's quality is excellent (and the bill will never actually be worth anything). Maybe separate the panel with the coin and put the bill in my wallet.

Got my 5 sets Saturday, opened this afternoon and all 5 look great. I am happy about these.
The New Frontier 1.5 inch medal that shipped with it is going back as it has dings in the surface and the rim. it looks like it was in a bag of coins and someone shook it. They need to protect these better as they are just tossed in the box with the little bag they are sealed in as the only protection.

I don't remember the 2014 release looking so pebbly. Is the mint playing with their lasers again?

One of my two sets had the dollar bill over to one side. I just took the whole set and placed it on the opposite side and tapped gently against a hard surface. The bill slipped right back into place. I recommend those of you who had this problem attempt this before returning it. It did no harm to the packaging or the dollar bill.

I got my 4 sets today.
The bills were where they belonged.
Unfortunately the serial numbers were sequential. I was hoping for a mix to increase the odds of finding something of value.

That's a bummer, Reno32. It was worth a try.

I appreciate the Mint's attempt at trying to change up the design a bit, but the obverse looks boring without the date and mint mark. The finish is beautiful, but I think it would have been nice to see that 2015 W somewhere on the front or back of the coin.

If they slip too far, the edge of the bill will touch the sticky stuff they use to hold everything together. I was able to reach in the side and give it a little tug. Hey, it ain't a proof bill. |
