Haha...my bad. I meant to say "zip lip." It's funny thinking about a small person zip lining down Johnson's face though.

And gosh, mistaken inauguration dates, zipped up lips...this set is surrounded with conspiracy!

Haha...can't tell you how much I see that happen!

Regardless, I'm just happy to see the 2015 sets are all out. I noticed sellers on ebay are already selling lots of all four sets, pricing them in the $599 to $675 range. Only one sold that I've noticed so far went for $599 on Nov. 2.

so how many days does it require for fedex to transfer to usps? my set is showing that it arrived in my town on Saturday, I still have not received the set. Is this normal? I'm starting to get worried since the last fedex smartpost item was lost at the transfer to usps point, this happened just 2 weeks ago.

In my experience, the transfer is a day or less. What's the latest report on the tracking number for your set?

it has that it is in transit to the postal service, that was on 10/31, it was in town at that point, it does have an estimated delivery on 11/04, it doesn't seem that it should take 3 business days to deliver when it is like 5 minutes from my house.

Mine arrived this morning. The sets look good - no zip lip on either set. Also no milk spots on the medals, which is nice.

No zip lip? Good, very good. I hope no one else has it.

I wonder how many die pairs are used to make 25k coins? It could have been scratched during a clean-up or polish as well.

I think conder101 said something like 3-5 thousand per die pair are struck with proofs. Not sure if that holds true to reverse proofs as well though.

Right, because you clearly are going to send yours in for grading then flip it on ebay and make a fortune.

Mine arrived safe and sound.
They look great, actually the best of the whole series for me.
Perfect Medals and I would venture to say PF70 on one and PF69 on the other.

I'm glad were done for the rest of the year on these sets, I was getting paranoid and anxious on order days.

I received a 3rd and 4th set today. No die scratch on the lips of either RP. 1 RP has a scratched nose (I guess his nose is pretty big...), but both are pretty good quality. Neither is a 70, but the medals are excellent again. Overall, quality seems to be better than the Ike or Kennedy set for me.

My first 2 sets look decent. The medals look the best and I'm glad they don't have the Kennedy milk spots.

The $1's both have die pinhole marks on the reverse but otherwise are fine...not 70 material though, medals maybe
